Loch Associates

Abricot have been a pleasure to work with. Not only were they responsive at all times, but they simplified the process and didn't blind us with web jargon. They worked to an incredibly tight timeline and delivered an excellent website. They gave sensible and well considered advice on the structure of the site and applied a clean design.

Strategic Sell

Abricot Production is quite simply, one of the finest suppliers of services I have ever encountered. Fanatical levels of support, input, assistance and attention to detail differentiate this business from all of the rest by a massive margin.

Owner/MD Nathalie Jamois has brought a sense of vitality, passion, belief, fun, honesty and transparent integrity to the art of web site design, build and delivery. Abricot provide me with a total end to end solution all under one roof; e-mail, web hosting, design, support, build and most critically, absolutely no flannel - you get it straight - the truth, about what will work and what won't. The brief is turned around in hours, not days or weeks.

In Nathalie you get it straight - no messing, no drivel. She won't second guess you or spoof her way around an issue. If there's a problem she's on the 'phone and has it addressed right there and then. You could actually say that there's almost a second sense of what is right or wrong about your requirement but regardless, what is delivered stands head and shoulders above their competition. To top it all off - the pricing was well within the acceptable range, pleasantly surprising me, considering the strategic nature of their value add components and service. Boy is this a smart run business. They have achieved that magical business virtue; total and complete trust.

For the love of me I cannot understand why anyone would go anywhere else. Brilliant, simply brilliant. A leading case study of unsurpassed superior value in a terrific business.

An adorable French accent, a penchant for pints, pies chips and gravy tells me that entente cordiale is alive and well in Claygate.

IC3 Marketing

Once upon a time, I had a complex and pompous website, hosted by a company that was shamelessly overcharging me; but I always found excuses to postpone redoing it. Fortunately, I met Nathalie at a business event and our common mother tongue facilitated the discussion that quickly focused on my website problems.

Nathalie was quick to offer a cost-effective hosting solution and a set of templates to make the transfer of my former content fast and easy. The new IC3 website was up and running in less than a week. Since it is totally dynamic, I can add, edit and remove content anywhere in the site. The editing tool is as easy to use as a word processor. I can also attach documents and create links between pages and to other websites by simply clicking on intuitive icons. Total control.

  • Nathalie is smart - she immediately grasps requests for functional or cosmetic changes and often comes back with even better ideas.
  • Nathalie is fast - she responds to problems and acts effectively as soon as she knows about them. No delays. No excuses. She’ll work overnight if necessary.
  • Nathalie is more: pragmatic, patient, caring, friendly, fun, and … insanely honest – she charges too little for all the good things she does. In a nutshell: a fairy in a world of greed.


Hire her before she realises it!

Buckley's Chance

I’ve worked with many web designers, but I’ve never found anyone like Abricot Production. Put simply, Nathalie raises ‘personal service’ to an art form.

After a relaxed, friendly chat on the phone with Nathalie, they produced a draft site that was near perfect – after only ONE day! My new website looks great, works brilliantly, and was up and running in a week.

Looking for an affordable, attractive website that really works? I can’t see that you’d ever do better than Abricot Productions. (They’re great fun to work with as well!)

Nathalie and Abricot are a truly spectacular firm. Nathalie really worked to understand our business, our actual needs from the site and what we would like to then do in the future. Rather than simply develop a site, Abricot work to ensure that your site is a too that is really working for you.

The level of expertise was superb and combined with an incredible turn-around time that met our specific business need.

Without question the most professional and personable web design and production operation I've come across.

Nathalie grasped and understood exactly what I was looking to achieve with such ease that I was able to be completely hands off with the whole project - entrusting it to Nathalie.

She delivered - and continues to do so !

Echoes Translation

Abricot enabled me to get a sleek professional website, took responsibility for the design and maintenance, while offering a quality service at a reasonable rate. They are flexible, patient, attentive and speak a clear language to customers like me who haven't got a clue about web design and management, instead of trying to impress with all the technical jargon. I am very pleased with the result of www.echoestranslation.eu and would strongly recommend their services.

Zarmei Consulting

Having a website was all new to me, so I made a few calls and I had in my mind a lead time to seeing it up and running. Even when I gave Nathalie the brief, I was thinking in terms of weeks, not days, and certainly not hours!!!!! Email?! What I have email too?!!!! I couldn’t believe it. I even used a few different computers to check that this was real and not some clever scam: sorry Nathalie; but it was just too good to be true. I have enormous experience in procurement and I know that rarely if ever does a supplier exceed your expectations: Abricot annihilated them!
Nathalie is a gem. If like Zarmei, you are a new business, and new to having your own website, you must call abricot for help.
THANKS NATH!

Remote Trauma

As a company working in a global marketplace with contracts and clients spread on a worldwide basis, our website had to have an immediate positive impact. Abricot-productions delivered an extremely effective service from start to finish. The company took the time to sit down with us and understand our business and what we wished to achieve. They remained in contact through out the site construction phase and made regular changes to the design even after the site had been launched.

As a promotional tool Remote Trauma's website still remains the most important aspect of our marketing strategy and hence we would have no reservation in recommending Abricot-productions. They worked to our brief completely and without fault. Any changes were communicated quickly and most importantly they were great people to deal with. We would have no hesitation in employing their services again and recommend them 100%

Ethnic Supplies

I had a website but all the technical people who visited it told me it was a mess and need sorting out. As a new company with limited finances I was also looking for a website that I could update myself through a "backend" admin system. Abricot understood my needs and worked superfast to turn the website around. I have appreciated working with them and would recommend them to anyone looking for a quick service with superb results.

I was extremely pleased with the high quality of work and speed of turnaround when I asked abricot to design and build a website for my client. What was also impressive was the attention to detail and the knowledge they had of the best way to deal with issues that inevitably occurred.

The French Table

We commissioned Abricot Production to redesign our website and are delighted with the finished product. As a result of our new look website the numbers of visits to the site have more than doubled and we have had numerous positive comments about its layout and design. The follow up training from the Abricot team was excellent and we are now able to edit and manage our menus and content easily ourselves. I would happily recommend Abricot to anyone!

The design is exactly how I wanted it and they really listened to me and understood my brief. Top marks for Abricot!

Spire

Hi Nath,

BRAVO! I am totally delighted with the Christmas e-card and wanted to share this with you. You have seen the feedback from my contacts:

  • ‘A lovely personal touch to an impersonal medium’,
  • ‘That’s beautiful’,
  • ‘Stunning photo’,
  • ‘Just what I needed on a dark, dank and wet Monday morning!’,
  • ‘A warm thought on a wet, gloomy morning’.

Let me say that I found Abricot both creative and responsive. You prompted ideas, yet accepted our own preferences and then worked assiduously to ensure the final article was spot on and that transmission of the card was timely (and on a Sunday!) and accurate

I was highly impressed and cannot think what more I could have wanted!

The High and Dry Golf society

I met Nathalie through some of my work colleagues and told her that I was interested in having a website built to run the golf society that I administrate for personal and business use. The Remit: Provide interactive information on the 4 Golf Day's that we run, the two foreign trips that we run and other functions that happen during the year.

The project started and finished within budget and on time.

The website www.high-n-dry.co.uk has been a major success. Our members are now the best-informed society members on the planet. We have a lot of fun with the service and it saves me hours of hard work on the admin side.

Before Nath started the work I was slightly sceptical about the updating, as I am not particularly technical, however I found that the 'Backend' admin section that I police is very user friendly.

I am very pleased with the quality of the work and the ongoing service from abricot.
