"We decided it was time to get online as it was becoming more and more apparent that people are looking for businesses online, especially in the building industry. Zeald are like a well-oiled machine, the process of moving from one phase to the next is really smooth. We’ve had a lot of feedback from people telling us how great our website looks."
Oscar Williams
“Our old site was out of date and we knew we needed to move where the market was, so we decided to work with Zeald. Our decision was based on quite a few recommendations from our customers. We now have a modern looking website that is easy to use and the feedback we have been getting shows our customers agree.”
Mark Monday
"I had heard about and seen Zeald in the past, and a friend had also mentioned them to me which is why we chose to work with them. I like Zeald's level of professionalism and see it as a strong brand. I’m most impressed by the functionality of our website and the design and layout of it."
Nick Hindson
"We chose to work Zeald as they had been recommended to us. I’ve found that the customer service team at Zeald are always very helpful and quick to respond to any queries I’ve had. We’re really pleased with the clean, easy layout of our site and the ease with which we can update it."
Les Markus
Chris Prescott and Daniel Shaw
"The initial consultation we had was really informative; the ideas that came out of the meeting were great and provided us with a great base plan for the website.  Now that our website’s live we’ve found that it’s really easy to use and uploading and updating content is pretty painless."
Brendon Deacon
"The whole planning process couldn't have been better actually.  Things are really efficient and really clear.

I was also really happy with the design of our website.  We only made a couple of minor changes to the first draft and they were very efficiently handled.  I was very, very pleased.  It was even better than I could have expected.

The functionality of the site and the content loading stage has been really good also. Things are reasonably intuitive too.  Overall I'd say that everything has been handled efficiently and in good time.  I certainly recommend Zeald - it's all been very good, really very good."
Guy Eaden
"As the project we are developing is a big one we wanted to work with a big company who were able to take it to the next level. We found the overall steps taken to get through the process helpful and really like the fact that we have ongoing free support. Our website ticks all the boxes."
Deb Posa
"Zeald’s response to my questions and queries was always very fast and they understood what we wanted. I found them to be very encouraging and helpful."
Sabra Davies
"The level of organisation within Zeald is great, the whole process is planned from start to finish and there is support at every stage. Our website hasn’t been live long but we have already had some good comments about it and have had a few responses from the new area of the market that we were wanting to target."
Marty Stewart
"I am writing to thank you and congratulate you and your team on developing our new Bartercard website. I am really impressed with the look and feel of the site and while I understand our marketing team has had a lot of input into what they wanted the site to do, they tell me your team has been exceptional to deal with. Specifically the response times from suggested changes to implementation of those changes has been excellent. I can see now why Zeald is the leading website development company in the country. Please pass on my congratulations to the team involved in our website development and to your wider team who can be proud to be part of such a great organisation. Keep up the great work, you are making a difference one website at a time."
Paul Bolte
"...As a community theatre group wishing to increase our audience base, getting the right website was vitally important for us. Financially we needed to be sure we chose the right website company. Initially, I must admit I was sceptical about whether we would be getting yet another 'sales pitch'...

We have been impressed by the Zeald support team. What's really neat it that they're not located off-shore; usually it's really difficult to communicate what you want to a help desk and usually I dread that kind of thing. The Zeald support team are highly capable and make things much easier."
Gaye Poole
"I was pretty hooked on Zeald reasonably early on, because they're one of the only website providers that's focused on actual business and sales rather than just a 'website'. Now that the site is up and running it's going well and enquiries are coming through.

The Design team came up with a look and feel that was pretty 'spot on' first up.  This allowed us to focus on editing the content to ensure we could convey the best message about the business.

The site itself is good and easy to edit, it's powerful and it looks pretty future proof too.  The little chat box at the bottom of the website is useful.  While you're working on the your site you can easily type a question and get an answer 'then and there' instead of waiting on the phone.

In general we're pretty happy and I don't imagine there would be many website companies that could do a better job than Zeald does.  They've certainly provided us what we needed.  Not just a pretty website but website that works!  It's definitely met our expectations."
Alex van Dijk
"I'm more than happy to endorse Zeald that's for sure!  Basically from turning the site on, on day one we doubled our sales - just from having it on!  That's all we did; we closed our old site down and turned the new Zeald one on.  Then in the very first month we'd also doubled our sales.

This was our 5th time building a website so we've started to get pretty experienced now.      With other website companies you get told "We've got the best website and we'll be able to make your sales go up!"  when actually they don't and they just drop the ball!  So far Zeald has been everything we've expected and more.

Things are really easy and simple.  Like the 'online chat' service for example, I just flick a question through and "Boof!" it's done and dusted.  Same with reports. they're really well set out and they show us all the information we need.  It's very cool.  Then there's the ability to work the back end and have your keywords and meta tags handy.  It's all really, really good!"
Greg Buckett
"I think the Zeald concept is really good. The process you go through to build your website is step by step and it just gets you to the end.  Best of all you get a really good, functioning site. Coming from the website we had before, our Zeald website has been a much needed upgrade, and I definitely recommend this process."
Dion Roosenbrand
"I've been very satisfied with my Zeald experience.   They have done everything they said they would do, they met every deadline on their time frame didn't miss a single time frame that I can remember...

Zeald isn't a company that will let you go off on a tangent without questioning "Is this what you want?" "Do you know you can do it this way?" it's all very suggestive though - they're only making suggestions.  You get to take or leave whatever works best for your business.

I certainly recommend Zeald.  They've done a very good job for us."
Nevilla Dodds
"The team at Zeald have been fantastic! It hasn’t being easy – selling meat online was never going to be an easy undertaking. But, the website results continue to consistently grow - to the point where I am completely convinced that the website will become the key component of our overall business turnover."
Terry Lillis
 
“It was essential for us to have an online hub for all our online activities. We got quotes from several companies, but it was the depth of knowledge and experience that Zeald offered as well as the help files and blogs available to assist us. The ease of content loading, the look and design and the fact we can update it so easily to keep it current are all terrific.”
Lucy Walter
At first I was very hesitant to construct a website. I wasn’t quite sure that I needed one already having good contact with all active main customers in the market.As  a necessity in the modern market to fly the company flag on the web I  decided to engage with Zeald who showed me the potential I was missing in a market I thought I knew! I guess being in a specialised industry for many years I thought I had  the market covered and would attract the wrong sort of enquiry. With the website being live for around 4-5 week now I have already made my  first sale directly as a result from contact from our website worth thousands in revenue for the month.I can already easily identify 20 leads coming from our contact page. The structure of Zeald is great, at first I found all the information a little overwhelming but once I got stuck into it and got my head around  it what we are and what we do and communicating that I found all the tools and information I needed was available at my fingertips. Online chat support was invaluable during construction with what I thought were complicated problems sorted in minutes. I’m looking forward to working with Zeald in the coming years to enhance and grow my website further." Based on my experience I can recommend Zeald to all start up businesses  looking to engage a web developer and get their brand strengthened and add brand value to its potential.

"We decided to work with Zeald as we were dissatisfied with our previous supplier and the lack of service we received from them. The team at Zeald are very happy and friendly people – especially the girls in administration. Our new website is a definite improvement on our previous one."
Andrew Bews
"I had heard very popular things from a number of people and felt Zeald would be the best option to develop the site we required. The initial strategy and concept creation of our website and the level of service we received from our consultant was fantastic, as is the ease with which we are able to update our content."
Nik
"We felt it was time to upgrade our web presence and our website so we chose to work with Zeald. The helpfulness of the production team and the ease at which you can change and update things is fantastic."
Sandra Legge
"The decision to work with Zeald was based on positive feedback management had received from various Zeald clients. The online help has been great, always available and we’re always able to get the answers to our queries from it. Our website has met the needs that we had, and we’ve had great feedback about it. Overall it looks great and meets our requirements.”
Tracy Skolmen
"I'm very happy with my Zeald experience. When people come to me and say "I'm going to set up an online store. Who would you recommend?" I tell them about Zeald straight away. I've even had people come back to me, thanking me for the referral, because they've also had a good experience with Zeald.

I know the importance of working with a good website company because my last experience didn't go well at all. As a result I explored quite a few avenues this time round. I didn't want the same headaches! From the outset I found Zeald to be fantastic. Believe me I wouldn't have signed with them if they weren't straight to the point and able to answer my questions!

Whenever I need something I can get on the phone at any time. There's always someone there who's able to answer your questions and get things fixed. I'm not very tech savvy either, so it's so nice being able to explain things to people who are patient. Every time I've rung it actually seems like people enjoy their jobs! The ongoing email updates are great too and I enjoy reading them."
Sera Hathaway
"I have been very impressed with Zeald's technology and framework. The whole process of getting your website up and going is very easy. And I mean REALLY easy. That's so important because getting a website can be a huge thing. The site I used previously has nothing on my Zeald website. For ease of use and actual understanding, there's just no comparison!

Zeald has some great tools available and there's plenty of guidance and 'value-added' information every step of the way. The help files are fantastic and so is the back up Support. I also love having all my statistics at my fingertips.  Having this kind of data is invaluable when it comes to deciding what to tune next.  It's great. Overall this has been a really good experience for me. I can definitely recommend Zeald if you're looking for a helpful, easy-to-use website that delivers results."
Julie Rowlands
"We're really happy our website and the end product that Zeald have delivered is excellent. I definitely recommend this process. We've had a lot of positive feedback from people who like the site. We've also been able to bring onboard several new sponsors as a result of having the new site. This is something that wouldn't have happened with our old website. The back up Support that Zeald provides is both friendly and efficient. It's been a great result for us."
Glen Roff
"We met with half a dozen companies when we looked at building our website. Even at that stage, Zeald was a step above the rest. It was an easy decision to work with them.

The Design team did a great job and even their initial proposal was pretty spot on. It only needed a few tweaks here and there to finalise. The step-by-step process which followed, was easy and straight forward too. There was nothing fiddly or difficult involved. Really there's not too much to complain about all round!

Overall, Zeald have done a top notch job for us, and they've delivered a superior product too. We're very pleased."
Kevin McAlister
"Property Partners already had an a website for our land subdivision business, but we were not happy with how it was performing. Zeald worked closely with us to ensure our website was professional and persuasive. They met with us in person on several occasions to talk about our needs, and were available to discuss ideas and make changes as they were needed.

We realised that it wouldn't be enough to just put our business details online and wait for people to find us, so Zeald put together a package that included on going optimisation and marketing advice. We've already started to see more results and have even implemented some of Zeald's suggestions into our offline sales process"
Ty Jones
"In the early stages Zeald provided us with a well laid out plan to get the ball rolling. That document was excellent, allowing us to complete a very comprehensive review of our needs and expectations. We are a unique organisation and it was pleasing to discover that Zeald had the capacity to connect with us at our level and focus on the areas that are important for our business.

Being the kind of organisation that we are, time is always at a premium. For this reason, we decided to make use of Zeald's 'Remote Content Loading' service in the go-live process. Our contact, Louise Home Dewar, was excellent, and deserves special mention. In fact we've continued to utilise her skills and expertise even now, on as 'as required' basis. It's far more cost effective for us to send changes to Louise as she gets things done in no time. Things that would tie us up un-necessarily at this early stage. What's nice about Zeald is that you can choose the level of input that you particularly want.

We're very happy with our Zeald website. We've already noticed that we're getting a lot more contact from users and more online bookings than we've ever had. It's been a great result."
Murray Ashcroft
"The team at Medical House are very proud of our new Zeald website!  We're really satisfied with our Zeald website because it delivers on the most important goal of all - having results!

We have a lot of complicated pricing structures with specific category discounting and Zeald was able to cater for us there too. It really felt like everyone understood what we needed and was working to find a solution that worked for us - which it has!

We absolutely love having the Support team close at hand and to be able to call them when we need to. Having someone stay on phone and walk you through is fantastic. When we were setting things up sometimes we would call 8 or 9 times a day we were never made to feel silly. Even just answering emails and having that ongoing phone support is awesome.  I definitely recommend Zeald; both for results and back up support that's there when you need it."
Danette Wereta
 
"Zeald has been a good, cost-effective choice for our small business. Our website is user friendly and has everything on it that we need. It’s very efficient and there’s a broad spectrum to develop the site moving forward. I particularly like the way we are able to make changes to our site as and when needed. I’ve found that if whenever we contact Zeald we receive a response the same day and even when we changed our mind on some aspects it was never a problem to correct."
Carl Meyer
Paul O'Donohue
"I initially got in contact with Zeald after hearing a radio advert for one of their seminars and things moved pretty quickly from there. The amount of information that was provided was great and I was impressed but the way the process was laid out step-by-step informing you of what was happening and when. The guys listened to what we wanted and now we have a simple, smart, fresh and easy to use website."
Jill Oliver
“We were in the process of bringing out a range of new products and decided we needed a new website to use to promote them. The professionalism Zeald showed helped to set them apart from the rest of the competition. We now have a website that’s very, very easy to use, and there’s always a lot of help available to help us update and maintain the site.”
Erica Haugh
“Our old website was a dinosaur that needed to be freshened up and brought up to date. I liked some of the Zeald websites I had seen around so I decided to work with that. The look and feel of our new website is fresh, useful and fun – which is an accurate reflection of our company.” 
Kylie Watts
“I was not satisfied with the service from my former website provider and have some friends who have gone with Zeald for the same reason. For me what was important was the Zeald is a bigger organisation and come across as a very professional organisation. There is always somebody available at the other end of the phone when you have a problem or require help. I am very pleased with the website as it gives the correct impression of what our business is about. The design that the team have created is fantastic.”
Claudine Barnes
"I really wanted to let you know about my recent meeting with Daniel Yang.

From the moment I walked in the door through to the moment I left, Daniel was extremely professional, enthusiastic and is indeed a fantastic representative of your company. I was initially impressed with his obvious 'homework' by what he had researched about Crown and what we were all about. My team and I had put a lot of work into the google doc previous to coming along to the planning meeting and he had not only read the information but digested it to formulate thoughtful questions. The 3 hour session went by so fast. Not too fast that it was ineffective, but we had so much to talk about and plan. I left feeling very exhilerated and excited about seeing the design. I think that Daniel is a great asset to your team.

Actually ever since meeting with Ron Giles, who I pestered for approx a month with a million questions was just awesome. He was able to answer questions for me with no issues at all and was so easy to work with. Currently my exposure to Zeald and their processes has been sensational."
Natalie Tolhopf

"As we are an IT services provider we consider ourselves to be proficient in most areas of technology. Because of this over the ten years we have been in business we have always created and maintained our own website. However, over time we came to realise that our website was not as polished as we would have liked, so we decided it was time to look outside of our own skills for some new ideas.

We settled on Zeald as they appeared to offer a professional finished product at a reasonable cost. We were subsequently delighted with the whole process. Zeald had a very straight forward approach to designing and building our website, guiding us through the process at every step. The finished result is very professional and exactly what we were hoping for. We would recommend Zeald to anyone looking to improve their website and their business."
Victoria Murgatroyd-McNoe
Managing Director
"I’ve had previous contact with Zeald and know they build good websites. They have really good processes in place and it’s really clear how long everything takes. I’m extremely impressed by Zeald. The look and feel of our website is good. It’s very easy to use and to update our content or make changes, and the reporting in the backend is great and really helpful."
Sonya Stichbury
"Zeald is the most professional company out there. Before dealing with them we had a terrible experience. The frequent phone calls to check if all was well really made us feel like Zeald cared. Our website looks very professional and is exactly how we wanted it."
Carl Shaw
"We approached Zeald as we has decided it was time for our business to get an ecommerce website. Their professionalism and understand as well as the completion of the whole process really impressed us. We’ve has a lot of positive comments from staff and clients and even though it’s early days we’re had a few orders come through."
Marion Lewis
"Our previous website was hard to maintain and wasn’t very user friendly so we decided it was time to upgrade. Zeald proved to be very easy to deal with and we were most impressed by their level of professionalism."
Natasha Gould
"When we started Belly Beyond four years ago we selected Zeald as our web-developer because they offered a well rounded, market leading solution.  We've continued to customize our website to suit our business and these added features mean we can stay a step ahead of the competition, keep up with web trends as well as grow the business worldwide."
Louisa Currie
"Just wanted to let you know the winners of The David Awards were announced last week, and we are thrilled to announce Pregoli won two categories - Most inspired use of marketing & Most community-minded business. This wouldn’t have been possible without such a professional looking and easy to use website so thank you!"
Belinda Simon
"I have been extremely satisfied with the level of service and results we have had through using Zeald to design and build our website. The idea to establish a website for florists and wholesalers to buy direct online was very much a risky one as traditionally 100% of our product was sold through a central reverse auction system. It was apparent that this was no longer a viably sustainable way to sell our product.

Our E-Business Consultant - Rose Love, brought passion, creativity and enthusiasm to the table when we decided to venture down this new path. Selling fresh product that turns over on a daily basis is not straightforward. Rose spent time understanding our end needs and meticulous planned with us to ensure that we had a website that was easy to use for both our customers and staff.  Impressively, 37% of our sales are now made directly through our website!  The implications of this have been huge for our company as we are now able to sell our product in a sustainable way. We are continuing to grow this direction of our business and have recently integrated our website with Xero so that all of our invoicing is completed automatically.

Zeald’s online help files and support team have been superb and have made the Content Management System easy to use – far superior to any pervious CMS I have used. The finished product and results have far exceeded our expectations – I would highly recommend Rose Love and Zeald to anyone who is looking for a well-planned and designed website!"
Marisa Hargesheimer
“We decided it was time to get online as that’s the way the world is going. Right from the beginning the service we received from Zeald was excellent. We liked the look of other websites Zeald had produced and the package Zeald put together was well thought out.

Our website has just gone live and even without all the content loaded, we are already making sales. Zeald is user-friendly and professional. I’ve already told one of my friends who was looking for a website to get in contact with Zeald.”
Inga McCann
"I'm stoked with our new Zeald website.

We needed to create an online brochure showcasing and building our Atlantis brand, particularly for new international markets.  We've been able to achieve this really cost-effectively using Zeald.

For this particular website our focus wasn't generating online sales, more on brand awareness and top-level distributor support, and we're confident our new site will deliver long term results in this regard...

For this website I had a very brand-specific design in mind and the Zeald design team understood and delivered what I wanted, with no hassle.  Likewise the Support team have been superb and have worked through issues quickly and conveniently.

I absolutely recommend Zeald -  particularly for small to medium businesses who need action online - that they can control themselves.  It's working for us!"
