How we can help

Why working with us saves you Time, Money and Stress
We work with our design partners to help them to get more projects and to deliver them more profitably, efficiently and enjoyably - on time and within budget. We do this by helping them with the entire life-cycle of specifying, developing and deploying web applications for their clients.

How we can help . . . 

Sales Support
We can help with anything from responding to an RFP to answering pre-sales technical questions. We are knowledgeable about everything from scaling and performance to language and framework choices.

Specification
By getting us to help you with the quote, we can often identify and resolve issues upfront that could make the difference between a profitable gig and a nightmare of a loss making project if you don't catch them before starting to build the site.

Development
We also have very efficient systems for developing web applications which we have been invited to present at international programming conferences. As such we can provide top quality solutions for your clients - at an extremely affordable price.

Deployment
We have our own dedicated hosting environment at rackspace which allows  us to reliably reliably host and managing the applications we build. However, we can also provide deployment services to help your clients to deploy to their preferred hosting environment - whether it be a simple shared server, a dedicated in-house cluster or a cloud computing solution.

Maintenance
All of the applications we develop are designed to be easy to maintain. Whether it's through a content management system or through changes to our application code, we have the ability to create well architected applications that can grow with your clients requirements over the years.

Types of projects we work on . . .

Content Management Systems:
We have developed many different types of Content Management Systems from very simple systems which just manage web pages to much more complex systems which manages articles, news items, catalogs or any other type of information you would like to have displayed on a web page. We can also provide sophistcated roles based security, publishing and third party integration capabilities. 

E-Commerce Applications:
We have developed a range of custom e-commerce stores for our clients. From simple sites with just a handful of products to complex applications with sophisticated business rules, we can efficiently create commerce solutions - for retail and channel sales. These sites can be integrated through a custom payment gateway such as authorize.net which uses a custom cart and checkout or through established payment gateways such as Paypal and Google checkout where the credit card processing is done on their servers to minimize PCI compliance issues.

Online Donations:
We have worked with a large number of not-for-profit-organizations and helped them develop ways of accepting online donations.  These again range from very simple integrations with Paypal to more complex solutions.

Event Calendars:
We have also developed a number of event calendars which allow users to sign up and even purchase tickets for events online. Again these range from simple systems which list events to much more complex systems which integrate with calendars and allows users to sign up for multiple events.

Content Management Systems For Flex/Flash Sites:
Some of our clients like the visual aspects of using a flash site but want to be able to update the site without having to get a coder to change the swf files. We have developed solutions which allow them to manage the content within the flash ( the text the images etc.) by creating managers which allow them to enter the information and this information is then converted to xml which the flash movies can then read.

Flex Apps:
We also have substantial experience in creating rich internet applications using Adobe Flex which allows for the creation of RIAs than run on the Flash player.

If you've ever been frustrated by a developer that didn't "get" your clients business requirements, that delivered a shoddy product or that simply didn't deliver on time, contact us and see how a web application should be developed.
