“Keylane wants people to be themselves. That’s why we’ve agreed to behave exactly the same way at work, as we do at home. Simply because it makes us happy and we believe a company is only as awesome as the people within it. That’s why we strive to bring onboard passionate people with amazing talent, and we work hard to support them in both professional and personal health and development.”
Manager Talent Acquisition, Keylane

 

“The success of our clients is crucial to the Bright Side of Software. So our software development is carried out in close partnership with these clients. Building long-term relationships – supporting and enhancing applications as client needs change over time.“

“For WCC, a fast growing company, attracting new staff is very important. That’s why we wanted a modern, fresh looking career site that can be used on all platforms. And created with Drupal. BSL has done that perfectly. Throughout the project BSL kept us informed, and they were flexible when we needed a little time. And all that within budget. Fantastic!”
HRM Team WCC

 

“With regard to technical development and infrastructure management, The Bright Side of Life in Breukelen has been a particularly constructive and creative partner for all these years.”
Jef van Gool, Product owner Literatuurplein

 

”During the first month after the site was launched, VROUW.nl reached more than one million unique users.

With these results, VROUW.nl is in the top 3 of most popular websites for women in the Netherlands within three months.”
