About DAG ® Limited


dag.net.nz is the website of DAG ® Limited. The company was formed by Michael Smale in 1999 to promote events. In 2001 the focus shifted to software and in 2003 the company name was changed to DAG ® Limited and DAG ® was registered as a trademark in New Zealand.


Since that time DAG ® has produced complex database driven websites, custom content management systems, simple & user-friendly applications for the self storage and chemical manufacturing industries.


As a consultant Michael endeavours to enable clients to achieve their goals, in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible.


Utilising modern technology in a cost effective manner can be a complex task and requires an up-to-date knowledge of both existing and emerging new technologies; accordingly professional development and continual improvement are a constant here at DAG ®.
