3rd Party Reference Sources:


Payroll +, a payroll processing company (aquired by Paychoice), needed a way to track hundreds of client interactions a day in person, by email, and by phone. WikiExpert solved the problem by creating an Intranet site that included an enterprise 3rd party Trouble Ticket and Issue Tracking system, a Knowledgebase to allow employees to quickly answer common questions, and also implemented a wiki that contained all HR and Corporate policy. The result? The client says: “We are all working more efficiently, are more productive, and our customer service is greatly improved since all communication is tracked and documented. Bottom line is that Peder has done exactly what we asked him to do plus more. We now have a much clearer picture of our total operations and how each process works with and affects the total operation. Carol Peddicord, Former Operations Manager, Paychoice Inc.



“We contracted with Peder to help manage the technology side of our Customer Service at TerraPass. Our rapidly-growing business needed a scalable way to provide professional customer service. He has shared an incredible amount of expertise that now lets us respond to customers in a timely manner, with minimal headache. Peder is very responsive to resolving glitches and stays on top of things. He is incredibly talented, and a great communicator. I highly recommend his services!” August 29, 2007 -Tom Arnold , former Chief Environmental Officer , Terrapass

"I have had the pleasure of working with Peder in different capacities. In one case he was consulting to deploy a new service standard for a Fortune 50 company, and I acted as his consulting Project Manager. In the second case, he had pre-staged a project that I was leading, to migrate two legacy Wiki systems, to the new standard service--Confluence, referenced above.In every case I found Peder to be Technical, Professional, and very thorough. For my cases he developed;

  • sound test plans for validating the transformation of data from the legacy system to the destination systems,
  • elaborate Gap Analyses with multiple recommendations as possible,
  • and detailed issue logs with history for relevant evolution to solution.

In these projects, the objectives were often less than clear, and Peder communicated openly, and escalated, to pursue the needed Management direction. Through all of this, Peder won my confidence and my trust. For Document, or Knowledge Management, he would be my first consideration in any Project that I am called to Manage. I would look to him as staff or consultation as available and appropriate. I highly recommend Peder for collapsing and streamlining your existing Information sharing systems, and integrating his "User Training" expertise for optimal benefit!"-Hector Bermudez Service Category: IT Consultant Year first hired: 2009 Top Qualities: Expert, High Integrity, Creative


“We needed an intranet to manage technical documentation for software written by programmers in multiple countries. The solution needed to provide multiple levels of security so that only authorized users could access and create documentation. Peder provided the solution by understanding our project, and then implemented MediaWiki, along with a custom security extension. He also provided a WYSIWYG editor and a custom skin to make the site easier to use an to match the look and feel of the company’s website. He provided our hosting and backup solution for the site. The result is that the programmers now have a time-saving and effective way to collaborate on their software, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received.” -Hans Fremuth

“An expert in wiki. Peder is always on time and is dedicated to his work.” —martintjioe


“Expert in subject matter, fast and good.” —MultimediaSuperHero

“Peder was excellent--knowledgable, professional and helpful in explaining things to me (a non-technical person). I would definitely recommend him for future wiki-related consulting.” —RobMacNeil

“i selected peder because of his vast experience with the mediawiki installation. once started, unfortunately, it became clear that despite a detailed project description, both of us had a different understanding of the level of precision to which the project needed to be executed. the project came to a standstill, but eventually peder reached out with an offer for compromise that met most of my requirements. the reason he proposed this was his commitment to consistently satisfy his customers to build his business on elance. the remainder of the project was very smooth, and peder's attitude remained gracious. for that reason i consider peder a true professional, who will no doubt be more stringent on future project acceptance, but who i expect to remain fully committed to satisfying his customers. i would therefore definitely recommend working with him.”

“This was an excellent company to deal with, there strong points include: - understand budget requirements. - offers great value for money! - professional and very easy to deal with. - extremely responsive to any issues, feedback and project points. - good grasp of our business workflow which helps in the final product's functionality - overall, very happy and would recommend to anyone especially when it comes to Wiki related development.” —connectls

“Peder (the provider) not only helped me with creating and implementing the wiki but he also educated me along the way to make sure I was going to have a product that was exactly what I wanted when completed. I could not have been more satisfied with the completed product and the service that Peder provided. I could not recommend this provider more highly.

“Very understanding with problems. Im allready working on another project with him!” —hoiol

“I chose to postpone a large portion of this project, so I can only speak to the first phase of the consultation. Peder is very knowledgeable about wikis, their implementation, and the benefits and drawbacks of the choices I had to make. What was truly refreshing is that he seemed more concerned with helping me understand what I really needed than promoting various solutions. He took the time to educate me about all of my options, and I learned a lot. In the end, I realized that I need to confirm the viability of my business plan before I move forward with a lot of fancy bells and whistles. He helped me get set up with a basic wiki, helped me understand how to use it, and outlined the costs associated with upgrades should I need them. I will definitely return to this provider if things go well and I decide I need further customization. ” —ekeisman
