Why Segala?

Here are some of the reasons our clients think we are the number 1 provider of accessibility testing and certification services.

References/Experience

Major brands such as O2 Corporate and O2 UK have trusted Segala to independently audit and certify their entire agency rosters and content providers worldwide since 2003.

O2’s agency roster includes companies such as Rufus Leonard, Agency Republic, Corporate Edge, DNA and AIS.

Segala are key contributors to the whole online experience for O2.co.uk. They have worked with O2 right fromo2 logo the start; helping us define the required accessibility levels on the site, consulting on the designs and code throughout, and awarding the Segala-Certified Certificate and Trustmark to the completed site.

They worked very closely with our developers to ensure that the whole usability side of the site was guided by our accessibility requirements, and the Trustmark clearly shows that we take our responsibility to provide an accessible site seriously.

– Dermot O’Mahony, Head of Production, O2 UK.
