I am not a computer person and rely on Technical support people to walk me through the process. Tiffany D was wonderful. Patient with a person like me who is not computer technical AT ALL!!
We walked thorough each step and got the Software program up and running again.
What great service, Thanks Tiffany
This team, led by Waylon B, is SO responsive and a JOY to work with. Michael ALWAYS makes me feel like I'm the ONLY client he has to work with :)
I cannot thank this group enough for their abundant professional, knowledgeable, polite, and VERY PATIENT service to this 72 year-old gal! Not to mention the software has been stellar for my previous cell phones, and now my Galaxy S21!

Companionlink and Deja Office fill a niche no one else fills. The products are good - not perfect, but good - and constantly improving.
Companionlink truly shines, however, where its Tech Support comes into play. I have had two occasions to use it: once due to some buggy software stuff and most recently due to a problem on my own end. In each case responses were timely, professional, committed and saw things through to a satisfactory resolution (including some debugging and extra release efforts on their end.)
Tiffany D, Thomas M and Conley H have all, at one time or another, provided outstanding help. I highly recommend the Companionlink suite because of this.
