Prodigy - Fixed cost programming
A lot of our dealers are finding Crestron Prodigy allows them to sell the Crestron Brand into instances where a less flexible brand would more than often be sold. Although it comes with a wizard, it may not be feasible for our dealers to learn Prodigy, or they may still want that creative flair which wizards tend not to provide. In answer to this problem and to help our dealers we have created three packages Bronze, Silver and Gold based on our standard high quality framework and Graphics. This means high quality "kustom" code at a price which just makes sense. Contact us today for more information of how we can help, and to get an idea of our packages.

Re-Brand of Kustomworks
We decided it was time for a change, we felt our logo didn't suit what we provided as a company and as such decided to re-design it, since we are always thinking outside the box with our creations, we felt our take on the box was most apt to the company's direction.
New Business cards and flyers are coming soon... we will provide our flyer here for download soon.
Glasgow Office Now Live
To further support our work in the north of England we have opened an office in Glasgow, this means now we can undertake projects within the Glasgow area of any size while still been cost effective.

Crestron Masters Training 2010
Heading to Belgium for Masters Training, hopefully get a look at the new 3-Series software. This is my second masters training now, one more and its Silver time.
New Website Launch
Welcome to our new look website. If you would like to comment on our site we would love to hear your from you.
2010 is here..
Well 2010 is upon us, and already our calendar seems to be getting full ready for the new year. We have had interest from the Middle East and Europe, so it’s looking like a fun filled year of exciting project. We have also taken the plunge into the twitter pool, so you can keep up to date with where we are and what we are doing.
Wind Down
Well as another year comes to an end I would like to take a moment to reflect on 2009.
As a company we have had a successful (if not hectic) year working with our clients, designing fun and innovative products, integrating a whole host of different systems. During the last year one of our main aims was to make these ever more complex systems even simpler and even more fun for our clients to use. We have taken a different approach to other programmers and I think we have managed to now produce simple and easy to use GUI that anyone of any age can use. These have been extensively tested on Children/spouses and mother in-laws.
Our GUI’s can be custom designed to fit into any décor, from a stately home to a modern mansion. We will have some screen shots up in January of our new GUI in Action.
We plan to have some Video’s produced in the New Year Show casing our GUI implementation, and how easy it is to use. So keep checking back for an up date.
Well, all that’s left is for me to say I wish all our clients a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year for 2010.
Northern expansion
Due to demands of this year and projects we have starting in the New Year we have opened a northern programming office with a full time programmer in Aberdeen.
If you have a project in Scotland don’t hesitate to get in touch, we will be more than able to assist you.
September Madness..
'Phew' what a manic few months, firstly Sorry for not keeping the News page updated with current events but even with the recession Kustomworks has been kept extremely busy, with current and new projects. It has seen Kustomworks travelling all over the UK as well as a couple of trips to Europe.
We now have a little bit of breathing space, so we though a update on current events was in order. We are just starting our first Scotland Job based in Aberdeen, we will be working with Synergy Control Systems, both myself and George are thrilled to be working together on this exciting system.
We have also secured a second project again in Scotland with the prospect of more Scotish jobs over the coming months and following into 2010 in the pipeline.
the Kustom-Synergy link has allowed both companies to offer Greater UK Coverage, so dealers and Private clients alike get the chance to benefit from our expertise and fresh take on programming in either their current projects, be they new build or retrofit.
Also we will be updating our GUI library over the coming months, with some interesting templates, we have been working on. So be sure to check this out.
Going Green...
Over 40% of the UK's carbon dioxide emissions, the main greenhouse gas which causes climate change, actually come from the things we do every day. Things like leaving lights on unnecessarily or overfilling the kettle all waste energy and result in needless carbon dioxide emissions. This section looks at the impact we are having on climate change and what's being done to help fight it.
The UK has committed to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 20 per cent by 2020 and seeks an 80% reduction in emissions by 2050 . There are a number of initiatives that have been set up to help meet this reduction, these include the Carbon Emissions Reduction Target (CERT), the Climate Change Levy and the Climate Change Bill amongst others.
Because of these alarming facts Kustomworks is committed to do its part and where ever possible assist our growing client base reduce their carbon footprint. We will achieve this with intelligent system programming. Read our Green Solutions page for more information
