How Capterra ensures transparency

Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users.

I have worked with Channing on two websites. One was done by her, and the other was done by me with her support. After the initial completion of the websites she has been there with tutorials and guidance to help me update and make changes as needed. I have been in some of her on-going workgroups and have found that to be a great source of information and discussion along with Channing and other clients. I appreciate that Channing will push me to do things that are within my ability so I can learn and be self sufficient. But, she is also always there to assist as needed. I would highly recommend working with Channing. November 21, 2022

Overall Experience: I’ve owned my own business for more than a decade, and it’s been impossible to keep up with marketing and social media trends on my own. DCM not only helped me get a handle on it, but did things I didn’t even know should be done! It would have taken me weeks to figure out a plan, research it and enact it…worth every penny of my time.
