Eakarot has been a very important resource for me from the time that the Thomson Reuters Eikon product was launched until I have moved on to a completely different role. Whenever I encounter complex technical issues from customers, Eakarot is one of the first persons I try to reach out to for assistance and advice. One of his strengths is that he is able to explain complex information in a very understandable language - this is a very useful skill especially when reaching out to non-technical people. I have also learned a lot of techniques from him, from observing how he troubleshoots and also from the answers that he gives whenever I ask questions. Eakarot also takes accountability with the issues that are escalated to him. He makes sure that the users' issues are addressed and everyone involved is updated even though he is mostly busy. From my time in Thomson Reuters, I can say that Eakarot was one of the best colleagues I have had a chance to work with. He will be an asset to any company he goes to.
