Business Systems

I help business owners maximize their potential by programming and scripting routine activities that are necessary to run their businesses.  I provide the services listed below at my Montréal-based consultancy, Kafei Interactive Inc.

Software Development

I most often code in PHP to utilize the Drupal framework of web development.

• Coded for security and best practices
• Integration with external applications, such as:
  • LDAP (and therefore ActiveDirectory) so your users use one password
  • Facebook to display and share your information
  • Salesforce
  • CRM systems

• Usability and accessibility assessments
• Web software training
• Graphics editing
• Hosting setup
• e-Commerce sites and PayPal integration
