Magnificent Seven
Temisoft started off eleven years ago by an Armenian emigrant computer programmer and his wife. Kevork and Denise Temisgian still run the show. But they now have five more geeks to help them develop and drive their thriving service orientated business. From day one, Temisoft (the Temi from Temisgian and soft from software) set itself apart from other software developers, through Kevork’s insistence on working in partnership with his clients.
“From my background in call centre management and helpdesk software, I knew how to write software. But what good is software that fails to meet a business need? Our clients have a relationship with us based on confidence.
They tell us about their business, and their goals and aspirations. And we set out to help them make their dreams come true,” Kevork said.
Kevork says his team is “nothing short of fantastic” but also “often a bit whacky”.
Leigh Denmeade is in charge of training and support. For Leigh, a job isn’t done until she feels the customer is 100% happy. She has written all the Temisoft training ll).anuals and developed the unique online training program which allows her to work with clients remotely on their own screens.
“Every business needs a Geli Nicholas” Kevork said. “Someone who not only knows enough but is gutsy enough to take over when the boss is unavailable.”
Geli, whose background is in service management, is Temisoft’s senior analyst and programmer.
