No matter how much you were asking developers to build systems for you, you always will find some problems like: development costs that goes up, interminable usability problems in the systems or incompatibility nightmares between various existing systems. Custom development software has gained a very bad reputation because of all this problems and if you got one of this problems....

You Are Toasted


Because it is possible that nobody acknowledge the problem and when you find it probably the consequences of the error will make any fixes very costly. Consider all the problems created in year 2,000 and the millions of dollars wasted in fixes only because programmers don't thought about using more than 2 digits to store dates in their software.


The Value Of A Good Analysis


In my experience (decades indeed), the majority of systems fail because of one of these things:
  • Analysis was made very fast to meet deadlines.
  • Developers selected a wrong language.
  • Developers wanted "cutting edge" languages, which they don't master.
  • Few people were assigned at start.
  • Lack of communication ability from the software manager.

You should control the "tech impulses" from programmers because they are more interested in using cutting edge tools than getting the work done (I know due to experience).

Other errors comes from the software manager which sometimes don't have enough communication ability to translate client needs into software solution or assigns few people at the start of the project. Later if you add people, the project will likely take more time to finish, instead of less because you will have to train the people coming in.

Analysis should be given the time it needs because is the most important part of the development process. Once analysis covered every possible outcome of the project, only them you should continue into the details of putting code together, because trying to change the coding once you made a bad analysis will be...



A Real Nightmare


But you know by now that it shouldn't be that way. So we dedicate much more time than other companies to the analysis of the solution before we start coding and this is out true difference that will bring you long term profit from the systems you order from us.

Our Offer


Our offer is as following:

We Develop Only Web Applications in PHP or ASP.
We don't use JAVA because it is TOO complicated and also, web applications can run through your browser and don't need to get installed in each desktop.

We prefer to use open source systems (as PHP as a language) because time has proven that open source is a very reliable way to execute old software without problems. I have a lot of Visual Basic and Pascal programs that I can't even compile because the environment in which they were created changed and made them incompatible and that is very sad.

In the database side we develop using MySQL and SQL-Server.

If you need a web Application and your Database is MySQL or SQLServer, please send us an email with the details of your project and we will get back as soon as possible:
