Our company was in a real jam. We are using accounting software built by a company that had discontinued support for the product. The system was built with a Btrieve 6.15 back end. We had spoken to many companies finding that support for correcting a btrieve table problem was either going cost us thousands of dollars for an emergency fix or thousands for a new solution. This kind of money for a small company like ours wasn't an option. When I called Goldstar, Bill Bach said, “I don't know anything about your software, but I can offer to help and take a look at the tables for you and work with you to get it fixed.” Sure enough, within 24 hours we are up and running with consistency in our system. I realize that Goldstar is working with some large customers, however without a blink they took on our job. It tells a lot about the company. Thank you Goldstar. |

Goldstar's Service and Support class is a must for network administrators
and systems analysts that have to deal with applications that use Btrieve. Since we took Goldstar's Service and
Support class, we have been able to: - Take the fear out of Btrieve database administration. - Develop a reliable
high frequency backup of critical Btrieve data files using Pervasive's open file backup tool. - Quickly identify
problems as being Btrieve problems or not. Most of the time they are not. We continue to call on Goldstar for advice
and help with problems. Goldstar’s knowledge of Pervasive products and how they interact with applications and
the network environment is unbelievable.

Goldstar Software is VERY knowledgeable about Btrieve/PSQL - a great resource
to tap into! They have provided us with solutions that enabled us to not only stabilize our environment, but drastically
improve performance and scalability! Classroom instruction is detailed in information, yet easy-to-understand.
We have always counted on Goldstar Software, and will continue to do so in the future, to provide us more ideas
and strategies in helping us move forward with our PSQL installations.

Bill Bach is an excellent instructor because he draws on a broad range of
disciplines from his jobs as a sys admin, programmer, network specialist and consultant, yet he makes the course
materials easily accessible to those of his students who do not have the same breadth of knowledge so that they
can benefit from his experience.

Goldstar offers a unique pesperpective of Btrieve applications from their
extensive "in the field" exposure from application development to deployment. The depth of knowledge
is easily seen at these classes and even move important, the person attending the class walks away with that same
knowledge!

Bill Bach and Goldstar Software know things about Btrieve that I'm not even
sure Pervasive knows. When we've needed Btrieve-specific help with our project, they've been very valuable.

The classes were great. I learned a great deal and look forward to the opportunity
to begin to use the knowledge I acquired. Your presentation made the material much easier to understand and grasp.
I would highly recommend you as a trainer to anyone wanting to achieve a higher level of Btrieve knowledge. Thanks
for a great experience.
