Crisis brings opportunity for technological progress Very pleased to be in the newspapers again and a lovely testimonial from one of our new hospitality clients! Bury St Edmunds firm Magellan Design mark 20 years with innovations to help firms through Covid-19 A web developer company has said its ability to adapt has helped it survive 20 years in business. Magellan Design, based in Bury St Edmunds, has launched a food ordering and payment system to allow customers a safe and secure transaction in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic. Andrew Osman, managing director, said it is opportunism like this which has helped the Eastern Way-based company thrive for two decades. He said: “I try to think back 20 years but it is hard. “So much has happened in such a short period of time. I feel sad and celebrations no longer seem appropriate. The reason we have managed to make it to 20 years is that we adapt in order to survive.” The Sorrel Horse in Shottisham has become one of the first clients to use the food ordering and payment software for pizza takeaway. Magellan has also launched event booking software that gathers all the required information to comply with government guidelines for their re-opening. by Willam Matter Bury Free Press Read full story "We somewhat stumbled across Magellan Design after reading an article in the East Anglian Daily Times offering support to small businesses during this dreadful Covid’19 pandemic. And what a fabulous ’stumble’ it proved to be! Despite the challenges of communication and being unable to meet in person Andrew of Magellan provided our business with an excellent and effective bespoke online ordering system for our pizza takeaway service, instantly understanding our needs. But arguably the speed and efficiency of the launch of an event booking system was incredible and even more impressive. At any time of day Andrew has been available to support our business. Thanks so much for the kind assistance which has been sincerely appreciated by us all at Team Sorrel."
Andrew went beyond our expectations when looking for someone to help design our website.
Without asking, Andrew took information, photos and reviews from our Facebook and Instagram accounts, adding them to the design of our website, making the whole process so much easier than expected with a far better result than we could've hoped for.
Nothing was too much trouble, regardless of how many changes we wished to make through the design process. We would recommend Andrew of Magellan Design 100% With our website now live, we're confident we're going to attract new customers and it's all thanks to Andrew.
Magellan Design has provided an excellent, comprehensive service that is tailored to our business needs.
Highly professional, response times are always good, explanations and advice always clear, to the point and helpful. Highly recommended.
I would like to thank Andrew at Magellan Design for not only delivering our website on time and within budget, but surpassing all our expectations with such a brilliant booking system.
Our customers love the booking system and I find the admin area very easy to use, Andrew has always been very patient and is a pleasure to work with. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Magellan Design.
