I found Stuart to be very knowledgeable and was able to relate closely to our business. He was able to evaluate and identify how best to address our needs and take us all the way through to implementing the right solutions.

Naomi Glenwright

Stuart worked with us on our new telecoms requirements; he always knew what we needed, could articulate the requirements clearly, kept a good oversight of all activities, and was always friendly, approachable and knowledgable. Stuart's insight, expertise and patience are qualities that are absolutely indispensable in guiding companies through the complexities of dealing with new installations. I would highly recommend him to any business that is reviewing their telecom requirements.

      My role at Logical Telecom is Business Development Executive. I am the overall business manager for an existing, successful and growing portfolio of accounts, I take pride from adding value and exceeding my client’s expectations. My aim is to further expand our client base, but more importantly to help companies manage their telecommunications effectively and efficiently to increase their productivity and profitability. My product portfolio covers a vast range of communication mediums; From a standard Phone Line to full business communications set-up, and everything in-between. Most companies, and in fact individuals struggle to come to terms with the ever developing world of communications. Therefore it is ultimately important to assess their needs and provide the best possible solution for their business, in turn with excellent technical support and ongoing monitoring, to ensure the highest level of customer satisfaction.
