We contracted Heather to help us with an Umbraco project, she did the back-end integration while our team handled front-end dev. She started by giving us an incredibly thorough and detailed breakdown of each component. There were no surprises when it came to cost or timeline. Each week as the project progressed we had internal check-ins where she would keep us up to date on her progress and raise any concerns that may have come up. Our project had some unforeseen items come up and Heather was completely flexible and willing to do what it took to get those items hammered out. In the end, the project turned out great - we are happy, the client is happy. Our team loves working with Heather and will do it again without hesitation.

Heather Floyd strikes the perfect consulting balance between delivering to your exacting specifications and offering new solutions you do not even know to ask for – yet make everything so much more efficient. Working with Heather allowed me to concentrate on business rather than wrestling with systems. Heather is highly skilled and was always ahead of the curve in possibilities to build our business. She created custom solutions for our international news agency that were so advanced they were able to be used without upgrade for the better part of a decade. We highly recommend Heather Floyd to any business looking to scale up.

Working with Heather and her team is amazing. It's one thing to create a fabulous looking website; but, for a website that sends a clear message about my business and gets me clients is artistry. Heather adds the marketing piece that so many other web people lack. ... Plus, I feel Heather really understands my business, listens to my ideas, and gives me great insight on the most effective way to make it happen. She has the patience of Job for working with this computer challenged business owner.

At Codegarden 2018 I did a talk titled "Umbraco Forms as the Ultimate Survey Tool". Recently I received a question about how to display the submitted data in an aggregated format after the form has been submitted. This was something that my talk demo was doing. I though this might make for a good follow-up article, especially since the recent update to Umbraco Forms makes it an even more appealing tool for developers to use.

A few weeks ago I came across an issue on GitHub requesting an Umbraco Core feature to allow for specifying data or content that would be different based on the current website’s environment (development/staging/live). Considering the question today, in light of the current state of Umbraco 8 and Umbraco Cloud, 3 ways to handle this need came to mind. Here they are – in general order of coding complexity.
