Brian Shumak: B.S., CLU, CFP, TEP - HC Financial Group Inc.
“Often today people are concerned about privacy of information and it has become part of my introductory meeting with individuals to discuss how I protect their information.”
“I have actually started to incorporate it (NPC) into my presentations to new clients, stating that my information is fully protected” (The implication to new clients is that if Brian takes good care of their personal information, he will also take good care of their money.)
“It has definitely gotten me more business, directly as well as indirectly.”
“Security of information, making sure that things are backed up, making sure that you are not down for extended periods of time electronically – that’s our peace of mind and No Panic Computing has definitely given us that”
Lost notebook – NPC response was spectacular(0:33s)
Vince Forrestall: CEO, PeopleToGo
“One of our guys lost a notebook - terrifying thing. In our business we’re dealing with sensitive information, both from a client’s perspective – the projects we’re working on – as well as our staff – personal information of these folks”
“So what happened is that we reported it in to the NPC center. They immediately eliminated the data that was on there - we got another laptop – it was backed up.”
“It was spectacular – it really was – it was spectacular”
Customer story: After-hours support

Norm Trainor: CEO the Covenant Group
“One weekend I was doing some important work and my notebook had a problem. It was largely a function of my lack of experience in terms of technology. I called the NPC help desk and the problem was resolved in about 5 minutes.”
“So for someone like me who is somewhat technologically phobic – it is a tremendous confidence booster to know I can call the desk and get help at any time.”
Did not have to become a techie (0:33s)
Shawn Saulnier: CEO - SAJ Advancement Services
“When we learned about the NPC technology, we immediately said we had to have that.”
“It was the first time we encountered technology that would provide us with a host of things all at one time.”
“We get a seamless integration of our previous work and existing work in the new system. That was a great benefit to us.”
“We did not have to become techies to figure out how to use it. It was really no impact on our time.”
“We just received a new notebook and everything we had worked on in the past was instantly there.”
Testimonials
"I like the worry-free aspect No Panic Computing's service. Privacy and confidentiality concerns become a thing of the past. Having your laptop stolen out of your car trunk is no longer feared – because NPC’s software encrypts and self-destructs the data before the thief can use it. And you get a replacement laptop with all your imaged back-up data and programs in place and ready to go. What is more, you get bragging rights to your clients about the safety of client data. It is a dream come true for the working public accountant."

Dave Duncan
President of People to Go and industry veteran
"When one of our staff had their notebook stolen, No Panic Computing made what is typically a challenging and time consuming process, with lots of concern about the data, almost painless. The data was safely encrypted with destruction features enabled, and NPC handled the replacement unit with restored data like pro’s. NPC worked and worked well."
Tim Cowan
IT Manager, Dispatch Us
"There are 120,000 financial advisors in Canada; average age 52. Many are independent agents with basic computing needs that are not being met, let alone the critical issues of security and secure data backup. NPC's program meets those needs. At the Covenant Group, we’ve standardized our IT purchases on NPC. We are looking forward to partnering with Larry and his team to deliver this solution to the advisors we serve.”
"As a professional I need my notebook computer to be dependable, secure and hassle free. No Panic Computing's program addresses all those concerns and their service is fantastic. And knowing my data is always backed up and safely encrypted from prying eyes lets me sleep at night."
