I have worked with Ben Portman and Orpheus Inc. for three years now, first on purchasing and setting up computer hardware for a new office, and then on revitalizing a tired old website. Since then, Orpheus have hosted my website and helped and advised me on on a number of small projects. I can't say enough good about them. They've offered fresh perspectives and good service consistently. More...

Ben and his team at Orpheus produced a fabulous website for our professional law firm. They came in and saved the day after we experienced years of frustration with our former web designer/developer. Ben's ideas were fresh, innovative, smart and just what we needed to bring our website to life. Ben offered great suggestions, provided us with quick turnaround was able to relate to the needs of all levels of employees. You won't be disappointed if you hire Ben and Orpheus! More...

Ben and the team at Orpheus Inc are top notch!! I couldn't be happier with the communication , speed and quality of their work. Not only did they do an amazing job converting my old static html website to a beautiful user friendly WordPress site, but I also had them integrate my forum as well... which came out flawless. Thanks again Ben, and if you are looking for web development services check them out first! More...

I approached Ben Portman of Orpheus Inc. with the vague request that I wanted my company website updated. I knew that my almost 15 year old website needed updating, but wasn't sure exactly where I wanted to go with it. Ben was great in helping me sort through the various options and come up with a design that looks simple, fresh, and modern. He knew exactly what questions to ask and to push me to think outside the box a bit. He even suggested that I have a new company logo designed to better match the website, and I'm so glad I did. I love the finished result. It was a pleasure working with Ben. He made a potentially difficult process quite painless. More...
