Customer satisfaction

It's very satisfying when our customers really love what we do!

Nathan Decker, Director of E-commerce, evogear.com:

"PowerReviews enabled one of our biggest coups to date. The implementation went smoothly, their team offered exceptional support, and the product itself far exceeded our expectations. Not only did we gain functionality on par or superior to the largest and most sophisticated eCommerce sites, we immediately differentiated our offering in the marketplace. In short, this company has it dialed. They are Web 2.0 personified. What exactly is Web 2.0 you ask? Who the hell knows, but PowerReviews has found a way to enable any website with robust, scalable, and fully featured reviews at no cost. As for me and my team, we are absolutely stoked."

Paul Graham seems to think that startups should stay out of Google's way.

I'm not sure I totally agree with that point of view. Theres been some reports that Googles other services (other than search) are not being as used as much as they hope.
