The Schipul Programming & Support Teams

The Programming Team at Schipul - The Web Marketing Company has been at work for the past decade building Tendenci online management software. Over time it has become a mind boggling collection of tools that make it easy for organizations to maintain their Web sites, connect with their communities and accelerate growth online. Sometimes, even the most expert users have questions about Tendenci, which is where Schipul's Support Team comes in. They interface with customers to work through challenges and use your feedback to continuously improve Tendenci.
