Customer Testimonials
CORPORATE :
"Telstra has adopted the STOP Label solution for internal use Notebooks as a visual deterrent against theft, and as an opportunity to recover that equipment that is stolen"
Telstra -Greg Statham, IT Financing Mgr/QLD Assets Manager Corporate Wide Shared Services Operations Qld
"I would like to congratulate you and your company for the efficient return of lost property due to the stop plate system. My staff member lost a computer and it was returned to him within hours of the loss due to your system, many thanks."
Telstra - Tony Rogers, Telstra Team Manager
"Recently one of our Hewlett Packard notebooks was stolen from our premises. Thanks to the quality of the STOP Premium service provided to us, the notebook was fully reimbursed within a very short period of time, allowing us to continue with business as usual. What a great idea from HP to include such a theft guarantee with new notebooks! I would certainly recommend STOP Premium to any business."
Network Ten -Andrew Marsland
"Our experience with STOP extends to one company's asset recovery, on which STOP is deployed on approximately 100 units (This recovery is still occurring)... We have already seen from this recovery that STOP can add value to the re-marketed product as an add-on."
OptusNet - Adam Evans
"I would like to confirm the return of the notebook. The notebook appears to be in perfect order and all its carry bag contents was found to be intact. I believe that due to the security plate, clear labelling and barcode enabled the notebook to be identified and returned to its rightful owner at Telstra. The fact that this label is clearly very difficult to remove and easily identifiable, provides an incentive for the unit to be returned". "
Telstra - Maurice Latin, Wholesale Manager
" I collected (my boss's) mobile phone and laptop from the restaurant that so kindly contacted you to advise that (he) had left it behind. Your efficient and friendly service has been wonderful. (My boss) would like to thank you for assistance in the recovery of these items."
Clayton UTZ - Maryanne Mc Connell
" On behalf of Accenture, I am thanking you and your firm for another job well done. We are very grateful for having you to do this kind of job for Accenture and we are hoping that we can continue doing business with you for many more years to come. Many thanks for your good service."
Accenture - Noemi Pitt, Accenture Management
"STOP has been chosen by Accenture in many countries to protect our computer equipment and complement our inventory management. This is a service perfectly adapted to large corporations. It would be a smart initiative from a manufacturer to include such a service in their existing offer."
Accenture - Heidrun Perez Reigosa, IT Purchasing Manager
"Thank you very much for contacting us! We believe just having the tags prominently on the machines must have deterred some thefts over time, and incidents such as this demonstrate the benefits of having things registered and traceable. The system obviously works very well". "
McKinsey&Co - Michael Glover, IT Purchasing
"Our decision to utilise the STOP plates was based on the fact that with 300+ laptops out on the road across Australia everyday, it is inevitable that loss / theft will occur. It is our aim to minimise the significant risk associated with this type of laptop deployment (fieldforce automation) and we believe that the use of permanent marking STOP plates as well as warning stickers may result in such a reduction. Time will tell.... "
Aventis - Dean Comer - Market Information Manager
"Following the theft of a number of our portable computers, we were looking for an anti-theft solution that acted both as a deterrant and as a way of assisting with the recovery of stolen assets. The STOP solution achieves both in a cost effective way"
Nemmco - A.Caruana
"When I rang to ask about the ownership of the laptop the operator was friendly and within a few hours I was speaking with you. You were able to clarify the situation quickly and I appreciated your assistance."
Siemens Business Service QLD - Jeff Ainsworth
RE-MARKETING :
"As discussed, I confirm that Hymans have sold a number of laptops with your technology of STOP marketing equipment. It could be considered that selling these units with your technology could only enhance its' value."
Hymans Remarketing - Sarah Hyman
"Our experience with STOP extends to one company's asset recovery, on which STOP is deployed on approximately 100 units (This recovery is still occurring). MRI sells these units through wholesale and direct channels, and so far we have not found any difficulties in selling units with stop deployed. We have already seen from this recovery that STOP can add value to the re-marketed product as an add-on. I believe the biggest advantage of STOP is that it is generic in its nature."
MRI Remarketing - Adam Evans, Manager

"This is to inform you that the laptop in question has been traced back to the owner using it...everything was resolved without too much trouble. Thanks again for your help."
Pymble Ladies' College - Rathika Suresh, IT Manager

Dr John Stavrakis - October 30, 2001
"After being burgled two weeks ago and losing our daughter's lap top computer in the process, we were delighted to receive a call from her school today saying the computer has been located by the police and will be returned. This is entirely due to the fact a stop plate from your company was installed when we purchased the computer in 1999. We are most impressed and grateful for the efficiency of your product."
