It was an absolute pleasure working with Alston at Manhattan Professional Group. He is one of the brightest IT professionals that I have ever come across in my professional career. The thing that sets Alston apart is his unflappable demeanor in handling any and all requests for assistance with computer problems. He is always responsive to the users needs and questions. He never seems to lose his cool with any issue that comes his way. I would highly recommend Alston to any company.
