ABOUT US
ABOUT FRIENDLY DATA SOLUTIONS LTD.
Friendly Data Solutions Ltd. was formed to further expand the initial development of PestFriend, a software package for Pest Controllers
it was clear that significant improvements to facilities available could be made, as well as reducing the costs of day to day operation. The feedback from the pest controller as each new feature was added helped the system develop rapidly as well as ensuring that all features were easy to use and worked as designed.
Friendly Data Solutions Ltd. was formed in December 2007 to act as the single point of contact for PestFriend.
Our Pest Control Expertise
Our development is based on our customer's extensive knowledge of the pest control industry, who have been able to give us informed feedback, but as new users started using PestFriend, we gain a broader understanding of the problems faced by a pest controller in the course of their daily work.
Our logo symbolises how we wish to work with our customers - their comments have helped us to focus on practical solutions for everyday situations encountered by pest controllers. We have not always come up with the answer originally expected - often our solutions go far beyond their requests for an enhancement.
We encourage PestFriend users to network with other small companies - the PestFriend community can support each other by covering for holidays or reduce travelling as well as giving a focused view of a new enhancement.
We are always looking for new ideas so pest control can stay in touch with a fast moving technological world, which helps us stay one step ahead. PestFriend is the future.

THE EARLY YEARS
FITEC Consultants started trading in 1992 with its principle consultant - Nicholas Peek. Initially much of the work was with large manufacturing systems, stock control and accounting interfaces. In that same year Nicholas received the prestigious ICL Computer Users Association “Community Award” for services to users. This was in recognition of the work carried out whilst working at Racal and chairing the OMAC User Group - Enhancement Group.
Alongside the ongoing system design / support / consultancy work for large customers, a growing awareness of the needs of small businesses developed - driven partly by FITEC Consultants own needs. Systems set in place for the business mimicked the controls in larger companies but tailored to the developing PC format. Introducing the controls showed good returns on all investment.
