Our Process
From Concept to Launch
A proven methodology that ensures quality, transparency, and successful outcomes
Discovery & Analysis
We conduct comprehensive analysis of your business processes, requirements, and existing systems. This phase includes stakeholder interviews, workflow documentation, technical feasibility assessment, and creation of detailed requirements specifications with project timelines.
Design & Prototyping
Our team creates detailed technical specifications, database schemas, and user interface designs. We build interactive prototypes to validate concepts before full development begins, ensuring the design aligns with your business objectives.
Agile Development
Using agile methodology, we develop your software in iterative sprints with regular demos and feedback sessions. This ensures the solution evolves based on your input throughout the process, with comprehensive testing at every stage.
Deployment & Support
We handle seamless deployment to production environments, data migration, and user training. Ongoing maintenance, monitoring, and support ensure your application runs smoothly and scales with your business growth.
Common Questions
Everything You Need to Know
Get answers to common questions about custom software development, costs, timelines, and technical details
How long does custom software development typically take?
Project timelines vary significantly based on complexity and scope. A simple business application might take 3-4 months, while enterprise systems can take 6-12 months or longer. We use agile methodology with regular deliverables, so you can start seeing and using portions of the software early in the process rather than waiting until the end.
What is the typical cost range for custom software?
Custom software investment depends on complexity, features, and team composition. Small applications might start around $50,000-$100,000, while enterprise systems typically range from $200,000-$500,000+. We provide detailed estimates after the discovery phase and can structure payments around project milestones to manage cash flow.
How do you ensure the software will meet our needs?
We use an agile, collaborative approach with regular demos and feedback sessions throughout development. You'll see working software early and often, allowing us to adjust course based on your feedback. We also involve key stakeholders in requirements gathering and conduct user acceptance testing before final delivery.
Will we own the source code and intellectual property?
Yes, you will own all intellectual property rights, including the source code, upon project completion and final payment. We provide full source code access and comprehensive documentation, ensuring you're never locked into working with a single vendor for future enhancements or maintenance.
Can the software integrate with our existing systems?
Integration is a core focus of our approach. We design custom software to work seamlessly with your existing systems through APIs, database connections, file transfers, or other integration methods. During discovery, we map out all necessary integrations and ensure compatibility with your technology stack.
What happens if we need changes after the software is deployed?
We offer flexible post-launch support options including maintenance agreements, enhancement projects, and on-demand support. Because you own the source code, you can also choose to work with other developers if preferred. We typically recommend a maintenance agreement for the first year to ensure smooth operations and address any issues quickly.
How do you handle security and data privacy?
Security is built into every phase of our development process. We follow secure coding practices, conduct security testing, implement encryption for sensitive data, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations (GDPR, HIPAA, etc.). We can also work with your security team or conduct third-party security audits as needed.
What if our requirements change during development?
Change is expected and manageable with our agile approach. We maintain a prioritized backlog of features and regularly review priorities with you. If requirements change significantly, we assess the impact on timeline and budget, then adjust the project plan accordingly. Our goal is to deliver what you actually need, not what was guessed at the project start.
