“My company has partnered with Matt to provide technical expertise to our clients. He has an impressive knowledge of Linux and enterprise level technology but is also at home working with a small business. I've found Matt to be highly skilled in communicating technical concepts and choices to non-technical business clients. And I've found that he also has a firm grasp on the business side of technology investments; coaching clients through ROI analysis and helping them make sound business decisions. We use Matt's skills whenever we have the opportunity and I would not hesitate to recommend him.”

"As a senior IT executive, my frequent yet unreasonable desire is to see the possible solutions to a problem before I choose one and sign off on it. As a developer, Matthew has a unique ability to quickly craft prototype solutions leveraging existing hardware/software/network infrastructure. In many cases these prototypes were preferable to the commercial alternative - both from a cost, simplicity and supportability perspective. In his capacity as the global network administrator, when charged with upgrading and adding low-cost redundancy to Kaz's 12 country global network, the resulting multi-vendor network was cheaper, more robust, faster and more flexible, but more importantly was completed well ahead of schedule and without interrupting Kaz's operations. Matthew’s solutions are designed to work, then keep working."

"Matt was an outstanding find, and as a result, I would not hesitate using guru.com again.

He was a professional throughout -- full of good advice and pleasant to work with. In addition to his technical command of the job at hand, he properly assessed our helplessness and took command of the project. He recommended suitable partners, communicated directly with tech support (sparing me the awkward middleman role), and pushed the project along to completion when at times I felt we were stuck for good.

Our project was complicated: an offsite consultant essentially managed an entire T1 migration from many states away, with minimal cooperation from my small, technically-challenged company. There were lots of pieces to the job: firewall acquisition and programming, DNS setup and change, internal network review and update -- He pulled it all off, quoting and updating costs all along the way.

This may be common with the top guru.com consultants, but Matt possesses an ideal blend of big-company experience and small-company practicality and hunger. There were times when I was blown away by the breadth of his knowledge. And yet I was emailing him at all hours of the day, and getting responses right when I wanted them.

Even as the job was completed, he was sending me my to-do list to ensure the migration was complete, and so that I had records of all he had done. Matt has replaced our local solution, and I'm certain we will use him again."

"I had a project setting up a network environment that Matthew Fisch really came through helping me with. He was very knowledgeable, hard working and EXTREMELY quick to respond.

He's a very intelligent professional who quickly grasped what we were trying to do and was able to help us get a good understanding of what we need to do. I would VERY HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who is looking to hire him."

"Extremely knowledgeable about Linux administration and especially MTA's. Good communication and completed the work quickly. Project did exceed total time in hours; however, he offered to not charge for the extra time required.

Highly recommended!"
