  • Cindy is great at focusing on all the small details without losing sight of the big picture. She sets realistic expectations but somehow always managed to surpass them; much to her clients' delight. While working with her I found that she plans ahead and leaves room for unexpected problems so that deadlines are met appropriately. It has been a real pleasure working with her.

  • Montano Designs really came through for me when I was desperate for a re-design of my website. My small business was really picking up and I was just about to do a big mailing when I realized my website needed immediate attention.....I found Montano Designs through another website I admired......my budget was small, but Cindy made it work and in less than 24 hours I had a new, beautiful website-I can't wait to show it off!

  • A thousand, million thank you’s for the website design!  Also a good friend of mine asked me for a reference for a web designer for a colleague of hers, so of course I recommended you.

  • Montano Designs did a fantastic job with my website, at a great price and fast! She took the drab legal website I was using and gave it a far better look than any of the canned attempts that other big companies were trying to pawn off on me. Ms. Montano was also particularly helpful in helping with all ancillary computer issues that were involved. Great job, Montano!

  • Wow you work fast. The website looks great.

  • I just wanted to let you know that your designs are awesome. I was checking out the Wounded Warrior Project site, when I realized that you are using Joomla. I see your company uses it extensively and I just wanted to give you a big thumbs up for the work you do. Keep up the awesome work.

  • I contacted Montano Designs with little understanding of web site design. I spoke with Cindy and asked her if she could construct a site that could serve as my graphic design portfolio. Cindy seems to have a gift of being able to hear and envision what you want. She was able to design a professional site that captured my style and personality. Cindy was able to accomplish everything quickly and smoothly. We worked over the phone and through e-mail with ease.
