"My mother and I greatly appreciate the time and patience shown to us during our visit to Adaptive Technology Consulting. Gayle was inspirational, and Amy generous with her time and expertise. My mother is dealing with her vision loss on her own time frame, but you passed along both knowledge and hope and I cant' thank you enough. " |
| "The best thing about ATC, along with outstanding customer support, is their un-biased solutions to access problems. They don't push product; they push results." |
"I often get questions from friends about adaptive equipment and what would be best for their needs. After I tell them what I know, I just about always refer them to Adaptive Technology Consulting for more information and possible product demonstrations and training. I know that they will be able to get the straight scoop from a user of the products without having to put up with high pressured sales pitches. And if they decide to buy one or more products from ATC, they can be assured of prompt, informed service. I wish more companies in the field operated this way."

| "ATC continues to be a leader in the field of access for the blind." |
| "Highest marks for all products and services. Cooperation with local techies is superb!" |
"I consider myself very lucky to have been given the chance to work with ATC (most especially Michelle). When beginning my new job a year and half ago,I had alot of new technology that I had to learn to work with, not the least of which was JAWS. Having the opportunity to work one on one with Michelle, gave me such a great foundation to build upon." |
| "Our local public library has recently undergone a renovation and expansion which has not only transformed the library building structurally by updating the physical facility, but which has also afforded an opportunity to offer state-of-the-art, co-equal library services and programs to every area citizen. Gayle Yarnall and the professional staff at Adaptive Technology Consulting, Inc., have expertly guided and advised us through an appropriate product selection process . . . from introducing us to the wide variety of assistive technology hardware and software aids available to the blind or low-vision library user, to facilitating hands-on staff training workshops, and to just being there with us when we finally 'go live.' Within our library, adaptive technology, and services to people with disabilities, is becoming a reality, thanks in large part to the highly professional, and very nice folks at ATC." |
| "Adaptive technology is my first choice when I am selecting a dealer to assist me in making the difficult choice of choosing assissitive devices. Why? they are honest, knowledgeable, and above all very helpful when guiding you to the equipment to fit your need. I will always support them and I suggest you do too." |
| "I found my recent business dealings with Adaptive Tech. to be an out-of-the-ordinary experience. When it comes to Adaptive equipment, hardware or software, the usual recommendation or sales pitch from an A.T. vendor is fairly expensive. This was not the case with ATC. They fit the hardware or software to the person and his or her needs. It turned out to be very cost-effective as well as an excellent person-technology fit. I found this "Professional realism" to be refreshing as well as an ethical business practice instead of the usual "Make a buck" mentality one finds in this industry. Frankly, I recommend them for their focus on the "person" rather than the "profit"." |
"It is just not possible to write just a short testimonial about you. You have had a great influence on the way I view technology. I was very fortunate to meet you when I first started working with the blind and visually impaired. You came to the classroom at the Washington Irving with John Robichaud and I recall telling one of my friends about the blind computer person who looked like she stepped out of Vogue magazine.
Later you came to English High School where you and Michelle installed Jaws, Vocal Eyes, Word perfect, Large Print Dos, Dectalk Express, and the Duxbury Braille Translation program. It was totally overwhelming for a novice like me. You also made a tape for Melissa explaining how to switch between the different programs. We reviewed that tape many times when we were switching between programs and accessing the Internet.
"I was very fortunate to meet Gayle Yarnell when I first started teaching. She gave me an appreciation for assistive technology. Gayle is very knowledgeable, gracious and provides excellent training. She is always available to answer your questions. Once you decide what it is you want your student to do, I recommend you call Gayle. She can provide you with the total solutions to meet the needs of your blind or visually impaired students. She has the expertise to compare and evaluate equipment so you can be assured you are getting the most appropriate device, not the most expensive or complicated one. " |
| "In the Boston Public Schools, our students who are blind or visually impaired are served by five vision resource classrooms and numerous vision itinerant teachers who move around the system. Adaptive Technology Consulting has been invaluable in providing vision training, tech support and the most current information on tools and software to the system. They are a phone call away from the answers we need. Their response time must set records. We are very grateful for their pricing discounts and excellent service." |
