Again thank you! I have been in this business a long time, and have very rarely come across your level of professionalism and responsiveness. With each interaction I am more confident in my decision to use your product. Thought you might like to know, this isn't being used in any small scale application. It is for a Fortune 50 company, with thousands of users. So far they love this new feature!

You have been very good communicating with us (which I still find to be a rarity) for net based businesses, that is why I will not wish you good luck as Luck as a commodity you do not need when you exhibit such a degree of professionalism as your company does.

-- Michael Beer

It's a great tool. It's so well designed and written that I don't think I'll ever need any technical support. I've written several small apps with it already.
-- Neil McAliece

You have no idea how much easier your product (PowerTCP) has made my current project. P.S. I love this product
-- Daron Lord, Arizona Superior Court in Pima County

Using PowerTCP makes a great pleasure to me. When I received the copy, I could include immediately the TCP/IP connection into my application using your tools. It works very well.
-- Dietmar Käppeli, Miratec AG

Having tried several TCP toolkits and even writing our own components in Delphi against the Winsock DLL, we found the PowerTCP kit to be far superior to any other method of implementing TCP/IP communications. The ease of installation, clean straightforward properties and methods made conversion a quick and painless procedure. PowerTCP is at the top of a long list of 3rd party tools and components we use, a position it earned and deserves.
-- Ed Purkiss, W. D. Macodi Corporation

I think Dart's PowerTCP Tools are wonderful! PowerTCP works like a champ. I am using the PowerTCP FTP Tool for a current project and I love it!
-- G. Veduccio

We have a few other toolkits that we’re working with in-house. Of all, I personally, have found PowerTCP to be most useful.
-- Gabriel Perez, NetSolve

Well, am I impressed with this stuff of yours. Calls up the dial up network connection and just goes right to it. Please tell whoever is coding down there that they have one impressed puppy up here in Canada. It took me 30 days to install the Distinct software and only a few hours to put in your code.
-- Glenn Brand

Dart's PowerTCP Tools are excellent and the staff is very professional. Dart's Web Enterprise Tool is great; it took me just one day to learn this component and add it in my application. PowerTCP is perfect!
-- J. Duchemin

The PowerTCP Mail Tool and FTP Tool are excellent. They are both feature rich and robust and the technical usage documentation is helpful. I love both products.
-- J. Palmer

What can I say....I am sold, I have developed my own set of TCP Tools, and am going to back them out in favor of Dart Tools! This stuff is fantastic! I have worked with a number of toolkits over the years and this Secure TCP is one of the best yet.
-- Janet Broadway, Jan-Net Technical

I am truly happy that we purchased this product. I have seen no other package that provides the level of professionalism and support of Dart's PowerTCP. You guys are great. This is by far the best support response I have encountered in my development career ... Anyway, thanks once again for the fast response. We currently have 4 development kits of PowerTCP and I would highly recommend your product over any other. Keep up the good work.
-- Layne Grantham , Coca-Cola Enterprise

... just finished an automated ftp process with PowerTCP and Visual Basic 4 ... works great!!! Thanks for a great product
-- Pat Todd, Cycon Publishing, Inc.

So far, it [ PowerTCP ] has far surpassed our expectations! We needed to change the default keycode sequences in the VT client, and you included that information right on the front page of the product! VERY IMPRESSIVE! Thanks for such a great product!
-- Robert May, Direct Communications

PowerTCP is a great product. From day one of installing the software I had TCP/IP and FTP demos ready the same day. Your package makes it very easy doing either synchronous or asynchronous communication. I've tried other products and they just don't have what it takes for rapid development and reliability. It literally only took about 10 minutes for me to start passing and receiving packets over the Internet. I've been using VB for the past three years and this product is definitely on my top 5 of third party controls.
-- Ryan Ragle, Walsh Distribution

SOESoft relies entirely on the Dart PowerTCP range of ActiveX controls for all our network related functions for our product suite. By exhaustive research SOESoft has proven beyond a doubt that Dart controls are the most robust, reliable and industrial strength controls on the market. Due to the nature of our products second best is not an option. Additionally, SOESoft contracted Dart to produce a custom control for us. This was a great experience for us with the control developed to the best standards and on time. SOESoft sincerely thank Dart for their professionalism and quality of product.
-- Simon Manners, Product Development Manager, SOESoft Pty Ltd

The most stable and reliable product I have ever worked with and it is very easy too. It is part of a program made in PowerBuilder handling requests from a voice response system; this program has been running for the last 5 months without being restarted once. It handles 2-5 thousand calls per day. Great product!
-- Thomas Ulrich

I think the PowerTCP Server Tool is absolutely fantastic! I wished for someone to develop a component that would take care of multithreading incoming connections so I could just write the logic, and then I found Dart’s PowerTCP Server Tool.
