“I want to thank you and your techs for their help with our project. We were able to sift through over 600 GB’s of data with thousands of Microsoft Office files and fix links. Due to a server change that did not support spaces in root folder names, we had to remove spaces from 7 root folders on our Network Appliance filer. We were able to do this with little or no impact to our end users by changing links with the folder name in it to a UNC path. This allowed us to fix the links and then make the change to the folder name. I have spread the word in the Deere community that your product works great.”

“LinkFixer is a great piece of software. It is a utility that takes a basic idea and incorporates it into a powerful tool. You would think that what LinkFixer does would have already been a part of an Office Suite or operating system. However, that isn’t the case, so LinkFixer has answered the needs of many by simplifying the management of document links across a wide variety of different software applications. Good job!”

“We used the LinkFixer Gold software to help us complete our document migration project. We used it to replace thousands of hyperlinks and other types of links in thousands of files. During the project, LinkTek provided superb support for our project requirements. We were able to talk to live support personnel in minutes and get quick responses. And LinkTek continues to improve their product to help our needs. LinkFixer was the unique software on the market that would resolve our problem.”

“Thank you for helping me salvage several years worth of work! Without going into great detail, changes over time left me with files containing links that didn’t exist anymore. In addition, I had files with broken links due to company name changes. All in all, this created many broken links and, what I thought was, an impossible job of fixing them all. This morning I purchased LinkFixer. By noon, the links were working! I now feel like broken links are a thing of the past. Thanks again for your great product and for the awesome support you provide.”

“LinkFixer made it possible for us to migrate the files, and fix all of the links in the scope of work in a single weekend so that the users were able to return to business as usual the following Monday! We haven’t put together a cost comparison, but I am confident in saying that it cost significantly less money to purchase the LinkFixer license and fix the links than to spend several weeks fixing them manually.
Thanks so much LinkTek!”

“One of our projects involved moving 30,000 finance department files, totaling 35 GB, to another server and restructuring the department’s folders to a proper hierarchy. We encountered thousands of broken links that would have taken months for us to manually repair.
LinkFixerPlus helped us save a tremendous amount of money and time by not having to manually fix broken links in the moved files. If we had not found LinkFixerPlus, we would have had to hire a team of people to manually re-link the files, and that would have cost our company a fortune.”

“We purchased LinkFixer to help ensure data integrity while moving data between servers for load-balancing purposes. The data on our servers is crucial for business operations, and a risk of breaking links would threaten disruption that we could not afford. Such risk would have called a halt to the project, due to financial and legal consequences.
“LinkFixer handled the situation quite well. Any support issues that came up were resolved quickly. For example, in one case we had a problem with an unusual type of non-standard Acrobat PDF file. The LinkTek support team promptly resolved the issue by making an enhancement to the Acrobat plug-in to support the PDF file type in question.
“LinkFixer has been a good product and very helpful in easing the mind of my internal clients. It provides risk mitigation for the data migration process.”

“We are utilizing LinkFixer to enhance our online archiving. We have a dedicated NAS server that holds all of our past projects in their original digital format. The problem has always been that once a project has been archived and moved to another server, the AutoCAD and InDesign files lose their links to all of the reference files stored in the moved folders. This has made the ease of using online archives not as valuable.
“The tendency has been to make the IT group move the projects back to the live project server to do any mass work or review, thus defeating the purpose of archiving. LinkFixer is allowing us to quickly repair the previously moved jobs and giving us the flexibility to move archival material much easier. This especially pays off when we migrate the jobs that are on hold to our archive server and have to make them active again at a later time.”

“We are an Architectural/Engineering firm with 5 offices located throughout the country. As we work on projects it is common to move a project’s data between offices at different phases to take advantage of the talent in each office. LinkFixer simplifies the project migration by letting us quickly remap xrefs in AutoCAD files associated with the project.”

“One day, our file server crashed. It was hardware related so I had to create a new server with a new server name. Unfortunately, there were many graphic files that had links to our old server name. We had approximately 5,000 links to correct which would have taken an enormous amount of time. After a brief search on Google, I found LinkFixer. I downloaded the program and saw that it would correct the links for us in bulk. After purchasing the product and a little time to configure, I was able to correct the links in the graphics files within a couple of hours. I should have contacted LinkTek Tech Support sooner during the configuration stage because it would have saved me more time.”

“1) Please describe the project that you used the software on or the problem you were trying to resolve with LinkFixer.
“We had a web link pointing to our central repository server used to page our support teams. They upgraded the web server and also decided to change the server URL. We had over 2000 references to the old link that needed to be updated. This was a huge undertaking that would require multiple hours, days or months to complete. We quickly began searching for an automated solution. It wasn’t long before we found LinkFixer. This solution proved to be exactly what we needed. The LinkTek salesperson set us up with the right package and we were able to configure the software and get our links resolved in a fraction of the time.”
2) How did using LinkFixer help you with the project or solve that particular problem?
“We were able to target the links that needed to change and with a few clicks, all documents were updated to the new URL.”
3) How much time and money did using LinkFixer save you or your company?
“We had initially planned to recruit contract help to get the task completed. We were able to do it with one person, one license and one computer in just over 2 hours.”
4) Anything else you would like to add?
“This software is hands-down the best, if not the only, software of its kind on the market. Don’t mess around with trying to solve a problem on your own. Get LinkFixer!”

“I ran inoculate and they moved the files. I ran the link checker report for them after the move so they could see that there were no broken links. They really appreciated the assurance I was able to supply for them with your reports.
I am sure you have seen by now that they agree with you on the value of LinkfixerPlus and we have sent the invoice to accounting for payment.”
Thank you. I have used your training and your help desk people in the past and found them both to be very helpful. Thank you.”
