What our Clients say

PD Dr. habil. David Amherdt

The company text & bytes understood our needs perfectly and translated them in an efficient, fast and elegant way by creating the Humanistica Helvetica portal. We are also grateful to them for providing us with a very intuitive and easy-to-use content management system (CMS). Finally, we would like to emphasize that the collaboration with text & bytes was very cordial and clear, the latter being essential when working with people who are active in the Humanities and who do not necessarily have a great deal of computer knowledge. Thanks to text & bytes, we have at our disposal a tool that allows us to effectively disseminate the results of our research.

The combination of computer science and the humanities is a communicative challenge. Projects fail because the high level of technical specialization on both sides means that people talk past each other. text & bytes is innovative, knowledgeable and reliable - but what impressed me most was their intersection expertise: they understand what I want. That's why many of their projects have such great success.

It was not only a great pleasure, but also absolutely fun to develop our digital synoptic edition with text & bytes. With their high expertise and thanks to close collaboration and continuous exchange, the result equally satisfies scientific needs and aesthetic aspirations.
