What Our Clients Are Saying
A Case Study on Support
Girl Scouts of Central California South is committed to developing girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. With offices in Fresno, Bakersfield and Mendota, Girl Scouts of Central California South serves the communities of Fresno, Kern, Kings, Madera, and Tulare Counties.
Don’t Let the Cookie Crumble
More than just cookies, Girl Scouts of Central California South (GSCCS) serves over 11,000 Girl Scouts and 3,000 adult volunteers each year. GSCCS’s executive leadership understood the important role of technology in moving their organization forward. In order to continue supporting the immense number of individuals that rely on their valuable programs, their aging technology infrastructure needed to be brought up to speed. Enter Kotman Technology.
Baked to Perfection
Kotman Technology got right to work bringing GSCCS up to the Kotman standard. One of the unintended advantages that upgrading their existing Infrastructure afforded was the ability to rapidly deploy a fully remote work force when the COVID-19 pandemic stay-at-home order went into effect. With Kotman’s help, GSCCS moved a workforce of 30+ staff members across multiple locations to remote working in a matter of a few days.
Have your Cookie & Eat it too
With Kotman’s support, Girl Scouts of Central California South is able to focus on staying connected with its members and serving its community with free virtual programs, at home activities and curbside pick-up. Since GSCCS knows that Kotman will always lead with the right solution - the first time - they can feel confident in navigating any challenge that comes their way.

It is so reassuring to know that our team can focus on serving our members with confidence, knowing that Kotman has our back.

A Case Study on Security

Price Paige & Company is recognized as the place to be among area public accounting firms. More than tax preparers and auditors-Price Paige & Company are highly trusted advisors who invest in the success of their clients.
The Challenge
Due to the nature of data that Price Paige & Company houses and daily interacts with, they proactively sought to engage a trusted security IT provider. They needed a firm who could deliver an in-depth check on their environment and assess their vulnerability to hackers and other threats. They turned to Kotman Technology to handle the assessment, and ultimately, secure their data and map out a plan for ongoing security. Oh, did we mention they also decided to move offices… during tax season?
The Solution
The Kotman team moved swiftly in testing all security infrastructure, devices, network servers, operational systems, and wireless internet security. Through Kotman’s deep dive assessment, security layers were implemented and strengthened across the organization. In regard to the move, Kotman came alongside Price Paige to plan, engineer, and deliver solutions for their new workspace. From conference room technology to computer setups it had to work, and it had to be first-class.

A Case Study on Strategy
Streamline Irrigation is an agriculture supplier that has served farmers in California’s Central Valley since 2011. They provide their customers with reliable parts and build high-quality irrigation systems. The Streamline Irrigation team has the expertise needed to do the job right, and is made up of some of the most professional workers in the Valley. They work closely with customers to solve their problems and value their relationships with other businesses in the ag industry.
No Water, No Life
Since the company’s inception, Streamline Irrigation had successfully managed their technology internally. After years of rapid growth, they realized the size, scope, and complexity of their IT infrastructure needs would only continue to expand. Streamline Irrigation sought a responsive and competent firm that could develop a more optimized IT environment and manage their ever-growing technology needs.
Making Every Drop Count
Referred by a longtime Kotman client - and mentor of sorts to owner, Phil Bartel - Streamline Irrigation partnered with Kotman Technology to solve their emerging IT issues. Our team quickly zeroed in on developing more reliable connectivity for Steamline’s various systems and far-flung staff. With their network/IT room quickly reaching its capacity, we doubled their available space simply by bringing their network room up to the Kotman standard. We also brought Streamline’s backups to a place of consistency and reliability after an accounting software backup created a corrupted file that required days of manual entry to restore. The Kotman team was able to document the network and Streamline now has a runbook - a set of standardized documents, references and procedures that explain common recurring IT tasks.
More Right Than Rain
With internal resources no longer being pulled away from their daily tasks to tackle IT problems, Streamline Irrigation’s team has more time to focus on providing quality automation and fertigation for their customers. The result is a thriving irrigation company, with a technology partner ready to support their continued growth.
Side Note: We love working with Streamline Irrigation. They’re constantly giving our team gear, swag, shirts, etc. when we go out there. Phil and the Streamline team rock!
“
The team at Kotman has been nothing short of extraordinary. The technical aptitude and relational nature they bring to IT is unlike anything we had ever experienced. We’re grateful to have a partner who we can trust and who is there for us at every turn.
– Phil Bartel, Founder & Owner
A Case Study on Support
Hammerschmidt Law Corporation is a criminal defense and government investigation law firm committed to providing the highest level of legal representation to people accused of crimes. Bringing more than 100 years of combined experience to Central California clients, their team of attorneys has brought more than 350 cases to jury trial, in both Federal and State courts.
Exhibit A
With a team of certified criminal law specialists and former prosecutors, Hammerschmidt Law Corporation has a history of trustworthy advice and high ratings by peers and clients. Yet, their executive team recognized that their current technology needs had grown and moving forward that trajectory was only set to increase. They needed a technology partner that could update their existing infrastructure and ensure interoperability across all devices and software.
Making Bail
Bringing Hammerschmidt Law Corporation up to the Kotman standard actually involved a two part migration process. In many ways, a transition between IT companies, vendors, and applications would pose significant challenges and potential downtime. Our team moved quickly to migrate their servers, data, and case automation software to temporary equipment, in order to meet a tight deadline, unique client needs and keep the office running. Then, we went to work on creating a more permanent solution by procuring long term equipment and migrating their data without any downtime.
The Final Verdict
Hammerschmidt end users couldn’t be happier with the level of knowledge and expediency our team brings to their organization. Kotman Technology’s managed services approach has allowed Hammerschmidt Law Corporation to focus on solving their clients’ complex legal challenges, knowing that their technology will perform as expected, every time.
“
Kotman came in the picture at the perfect time and we couldn’t be happier. They knew more about what we needed technology wise than we did and not only did they transition everything over with no downtime but now things are running smoother than ever and we feel secure with them at the helm of our technology. Without reservation, I recommend Kotman Technology to any company wanting their current and future IT needs handled right.
