“My experience was excellent. I am a new manager at this clinic and had no idea how to access the I9 intelligence for my location. Lisa very promptly got back to me when I submitted a ticket through your site and even though she couldn't get me access she got me in touch with the person who could. I am now in the program and am able to update our personnel files Thank you again for all of your help!”

— Steve Luck, Hospital Manager, St George Veterinary Hospital

“We have worked with the core team at I9 Intelligence for almost two decades.
