Aki Moilanen
Vesa is absolutely the best database expert I have ever worked with during 20+ years. Not only his MS SQL skills are superior, but ability to fulfill customer wishes and take delivery even further than customer has been able to consider is something exceptional. We have employed Vesa in several projects and tasks including e.g.: data transfers solution between SAP and HFM (SSIS + MS SQL), monitoring solution to our Hyperion platform that has helped us to spot numerous problems in environments before they have become visible to users, control tools to ensure data consistency and so on. In all projects/tasks he has been considered to exceed expectations. I can warmly recommend Vesa for any MS SQL related tasks.

I have a great pleasure to work with Vesa. Vesa's role as our team's CTA gives us a great value not only technically but also pragmatically business wise. Vesa has a great knowledge on MS products as one can see but moreover his capability to use that information for overall benefits is great. Trustworthy Architect who's skills help us to succeed and make sound and facts based decisions on MS technology area. I highly appreciate Vesa's skills and personality. He is a good partner to discuss of multiple things and great to see that he can look topics outside technology at the same time.
