Design ProficientReviews of designproficient.com

Avoid this company at all costs, I provided a simple example file of what I wanted and they copied it exactly and just changed the colors. They also demanded I upgrade if I wanted something custom and still couldn't provide anything better than what I currently have / could do on my own. Now they're just not responding to me after taking over $300 and won't issue a refund. This company is a fill in the blank!!

DETAILS  Where do I start....I hired this company to design a logo for me. I paid for a package that included the design, stationary, and ownership of the logo. At first, they sent me a bunch of cheesy clip art looking logos. I worked with them...we made it through. Weeks later, I see several unauthorized withdrawals from my bank account totally $426.00!!!! I called them furious and they explained it’s to get the logo trademarked. In their package and website advertising, ownership of the logo is included. I reminded them of this when they first called me to talk about next steps. I asked if this service would be an additional cost—they said no! Then bam! They’re taking money out of my account. No invoice, no authorization, no nothing! I’m fighting to get my money back!! Update: The Project Manager handled the issue immediately. However, the “Brand Reputation Manager” admitted to the mistake, but tried to tell me I wouldn’t receive my refund unless I take my review down-which I refuse to do. This isn’t right. I did receive money back regardless.

Company creates design , but they try to force you to purchase copyright and other services and do not want to release your art work, they call you and in my case even charged my credit card without authorization. After I placed a negative review , they refunded me and now harassing me to remove this negative review. I'd stay away from this company.

My client had them design a logo for him. Very mediocre work in my opinion. Without him knowing however, Design Proficient decided to buy his domain name out from under him and hold his domain hostage over the course of weeks because he didn't have them build his website. I've been calling them for weeks and getting passed around from one person to another. None of which speak English very well, all very rude, and unhelpful. At one point a support person was yelling at me saying that it's my fault that they can't point the domain to the right IP Address. I've done this for hundreds of websites before in the past, and now this company makes this simple cut / paste and click process into a 5 week old nightmare. They still can't figure out the problem on their end. Worst company I have ever had to work with.

WORST COMPANY EVER! Not only did they fight me on handing over my website, they designed 7 different sites instead of a multisite - my #1 request was that my customers could check out on one cart and they assured me they could - later said I should separate them all and just market each site individually. The very worst thing they did was they installed a VIRUS on my sites, and 7 months later I still can't use any of them. I've had to pay another developer to change everything to a multisite and purchase plugins that should have been done from the beginning. I filed a claim with my bank, I'm getting my money back from these unprofessional, terrible liars. They have other company names that is easy to find when you search. Buyer beware!! They also verbally abused me, called me names for disagreeing with them and had the nerve to try and get me to pay again. Worst experience in all of my life. There are FAR better developers out there, keep searching! This company had to change their name several times because they're known for misrepresentation, never handing over the sites and not giving people what they ask for. If you purchased web development from them, do a virus scan - chances are you got a virus too. AND every time they accessed my back office, they changed my email so that they were the main contact for any transactions - I've had to change everything and go through my ftp and mysql in order to make sure they were locked out - they had backdoor access, REVOKED. I'm contacting the bbb and filing fcc and internet fraud charges against them.
