Our Clients

We’ve had the privilege of working with many great organizations across diverse industries. We take pride in every project we undertake, and we value and appreciate each and every one of our clients.  

We're proud of what we do!

We’ve helped dozens of companies grow and succeed in today’s competitive marketplace. Our diverse portfolio includes:

Dingwall Guitars

Working with the Dingwall marketing team, we developed a robust marketing website to showcase their instruments as works of art, coupled with an internal management system for dealers to communicate and receive updates regarding outstanding orders.

DANCE CITY PROMOTIONS

We worked with Dance City Promotions to develop an entirely reimagined system for managing the registration, scheduling, and performances for large-scale dance competitions using the newest technology platforms to ensure future-proofing!

TELEMIRACLE 2021

When COVID ruled out in-person appearances by over a hundred community members across the province, we stepped in to develop and implement a plan to have these artists, performers and community leaders appear virtually live for the 2021 Telemiracle production. Helping raise 5.6 million dollars during a lockdown!

VERIGRAIN

Working with Verigrain through all stages of their product development, we assisted them in developing mobile apps that integrate with their online store. Connecting samples recorded with mobile devices with test orders fulfilled through the web store, through test report distribution to the end customer.

LMC has been a happy, very satisfied, 5by5 customer for over 25 years.  We couldn’t ask for a more knowledgeable and capable team to help us out! Dean and his staff are always there when we need guidance or help, whether it’s for our company IT, Audio-Visual, Media Production or hosting large online meetings. 5 by 5 is easily one of the most forward-thinking IT Companies in Canada.

Steven Chivilo

President, LMC Canada

We initially hired 5by5 in 2009 to help us re-design our website. That project went so well that we subsequently engaged them to re-design and then build a complex application that allowed us to manage all our investigative files and related data. Since then, Dean and his team have built a mobile tool that our field investigators use across North America to not only collect the evidence that we require, often in out-of-the-way and rarely connected rural locations, but one that streamlined our information flow and enabled our investigators to remain safe when in isolated areas. One project has led to many others, all of which have increased our efficiency and expertise and thus grown our business. And, at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about. If you have any I.T. need, from simple “my frickin printer won’t print” to “I need an encrypted method of flowing sensitive material to the legal team in real-time,” then 5by5 is the only call you need to make.

Dennis Birtles

President, Evident Group of Companies

Over the past 10+ years, Dean Friesen and 5by5 have been integral in our IT strategies, including, but not limited to, the development of our regulatory database, websites, continuing education and conference registration software, etc. They are great at what they do, and I would suggest Dean to anyone looking for IT solutions within their organization. Another nice bonus is that they are local to Saskatoon, which we have found to be a great advantage in working cooperatively on projects.

I’ve had the opportunity to work with the 5by5 team on several occasions over the past decade. I’ve enlisted both their audio and digital services and the results have always been great service combined with a stellar finished product.

5by5 has brought our convention to the next level. Their confident staff tackle any situation with a professional and positive attitude. We simply could not hope for a better team.
