Request Paid Support or Consulting Services

If you are still having issues after utilizing our Resources page, we offer three paid support options available to help our customers.  Basic and Advanced support are based on an hourly rate.  There is a 2-hour minimum.  We can work with you via email, phone, and screen-sharing to help you get started and to use the add-in effectively.

We also offer world-class project-based consulting services for developing Excel-based tools and document automation solutions. Over the past 20+ years, we've helped many small and large organizations (including Microsoft and Cisco) develop highly-effective tools. These consulting projects are based on a Statement of Work and fees are typically based on customer-approved completion of milestones.
