Custom Business Applications

Software shaped around your process, for the jobs where the spreadsheet has stopped coping and the off-the-shelf product doesn’t fit.

There’s a stage most growing businesses reach where the spreadsheet has become load-bearing. It has formulas nobody understands, three people edit it, and one bad paste loses a week. The off-the-shelf products either do far more than you need at a price to match, or almost fit. Except for the one part that’s your business.

What’s included

  • Working out what’s needed

    Time spent watching how the work is done now, before anything is built. Most failed software projects were solving a problem nobody had properly described.

  • Built around your process

    The application fits how your team works rather than forcing a rewrite of the process to suit a product.

  • Runs where it should

    Web-based so it works from the office, the site, or a phone, hosted on infrastructure we manage and secure.

  • Connected to what you already use

    Integrations with the systems already in place, so data is entered once rather than typed into two places.

  • Yours, and documented

    The application and its data belong to you, documented well enough that you aren’t locked to one developer forever.

  • Supported after launch

    Software isn’t finished at launch. Maintenance, changes, and support are part of the arrangement instead of a new negotiation.

Who this is for

Businesses running a critical process in a spreadsheet, paying for software that only half fits, or doing a manual job every week that a small tool would remove.

We have done this

A dealership that runs its own website

Sangaree Homes has sold manufactured homes in Summerville since 1984. They needed a website that showed what was on the lot today, not what was on it whenever someone last had time to call a web company.

Questions we get

Straight answers. If yours isn’t here, ask and we’ll tell you honestly whether we’re the right fit.

Ask a question

  • What kind of applications do you build?

    Line-of-business tools: scheduling, job tracking, workforce management, inventory, reporting, the internal systems a business runs on. We’re currently building a workforce-management application for a site-management company, which is a fair example of the shape these projects take.

  • Isn't custom software expensive?

    It can be, which is why the first conversation is about whether you need it. Frequently the honest answer is that an existing product plus some configuration is cheaper and better, and we’ll say so. Custom is worth it when the process genuinely is your business and no product fits it.

  • What happens if we stop working with you?

    You keep the application and the data, documented. Building a client a system they cannot leave is a way to keep customers who would rather go, and it isn’t how we work.
