Carolyn Stewart - Principal - Tawa Intermediate School

Norrcom are an absolutely brilliant company to work with.  We tell them what we need and they go away and do the problem solving for us. Knowing our IT is in such capable hands means we can get on with the business of teaching and learning.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Richard Campbell - Principal - Paraparaumu College

Norrcom have given Paraparaumu College excellent service and support over the last 7 years. Led by Paul Norris, the company’s personal service is first class,

support in an emergency is always available and staff are friendly and competent. We have a large system and it is maintained to the point where down time is minimal. I would strongly recommend Norrcom to any school requiring IT support.

 
 
 
 
 

Sarah Martin - Stonefields School

It has been refreshing and energising working with Paul in establishing the IT solution for Stonefields School.  Paul is a man of integrity, quiet determination and always follows through to achieve the desired result.  Paul and his team have delivered beyond our expectations.  We are delighted with the dual platform solution Norrcom has achieved for us, our learners are engaged in utilising tools that are fit for purpose to further enhance their learning experiences.
 

 

Russell Burt - Pt England School

Paul and Christine Norris have shown our community of schools a unique determination to serve, to ensure that what we got met our needs and were appropriate both in terms of capital cost and expense over time. Their company Norrcom is committed to adding value to their customers and is clearly about a whole lot more than "just making a buck". Their generous attitude to service and unstinting efforts to get excellent solutions for very sharp prices is highly unusual and greatly appreciated

 

 

John Russell - Naenae College

I have enjoyed a close working relationship with Paul Norris and the Norrcom team for some eight years now, firstly as principal of Kapiti College and more recently as principal of Naenae College. Paul has always impressed me as a man of absolute integrity who is committed to making schools better places for working and learning and understands the fundamental importance of a stable IT platform to support both. I have always found his personal advice to be consistent with best practice and the development stage of the school. He is very realistic about issues of affordability and sustainability and articulates options clearly, leaving the school in control. While the road is not always smooth and linear when dealing with IT systems I have always found the Norrcom network team to be competent and dedicated to getting things right. When there are glitches Paul is the first to put his hand up and work to put things right.

 

 

Tony Kane – Principal – Kapiti College

Norrcom have provided server support at Kapiti College for the last 7 years and now provide all ICT services.  They have competent friendly staff who are able to explain things to the staff in layman's terms. (well, not Mike obviously!)  When the Board reviewed ICT services this year and compared a range of national and local service providers, Norrcom were the clear winners.  Their response time is very rapid and their advice is excellent.  Paul Norris and Norrcom have put a great deal of thought into improving the use of ICT in learning for all schools on the Kapiti Coast and I am very happy to  recommend their services.

 
 

Bevan Campbell - Principal - Waikanae Primary School

In 2005 Waikanae School moved to Norrcom for the provision of PC, Server and Network services.  At the start our business relationship was casual with work being charged out as needed but we quickly realised that Norrcom was a company that we were prepared to work with on a more permanent and contract basis. Waikanae School has been very well served, right from our first interaction with Paul, Christine and the team at Norrcom. They are reliable, reasonably priced, efficient, highly knowledgeable, innovative and professional in all aspects of the services they provide to Waikanae School. We have had five years of faultless service and they are an exemplary business partner in the education sector. Therefore I have absolutely no hesitation in writing this recommendation or referring others schools to use their services.

 

Mary Cook – Principal – St Mary's College

Norrcom became our service provider towards the end of Term 2, 2011. We have been delighted with the service that they are providing.  They have totally overhauled our systems to ensure that staff and students have access to a first class operating network. This has been achieved with no downtime during the school day and in consultation with our staff.  Norrcom staff are extremely helpful, friendly and competent. They have given us good advice and guidance and fully understand the needs of the diverse requirements of the secondary school IT scene. Responses to issues are dealt with promptly using a very efficient ticketing system.  We would recommend Norrcom without hesitation.
