Services
Here are a few things we’re great at
SOFTWARE DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT
We have extensive experience in software development working with a wide range of application paradigms: web, mobile, database design, and back-end development. Our solutions focus on a long-term strategy for our clients, ensuring that they consider future functionality, integrations, and technology trends.
Although we know our engagements can vary in length, we like to approach each interaction with our clients as addressing their long-term needs. We value the relationships we have with our clients regardless of the length of our engagement.WEB DEVELOPMENT
Web development has continued to evolve since its first inception of simply loading static web pages, all the way to today’s responsive, mobile-first designs and single-page applications (SPAs). The complexity of web development has also grown with new tools and libraries that seem to come out of nowhere and gain popularity rapidly.
Our developers have the experience required to navigate this rapidly changing tool-set and can deliver modern web experiences with the latest technology. We also understand that due to this rapid web growth, not all companies have the skilled resources available to maintain and extend existing systems that may still be using a technology that has grown out of favour. Our developers have been around long enough to have experienced various web technology trends and can help you resolve your most pressing legacy issues as well as work towards a road map to a more modern technology stack.MOBILE DEVELOPMENT
Mobile development has exploded over that past few years with new devices, sensors, and applications coming out all the time. Mobile applications can provide a new modality of interaction to an otherwise legacy system, breaking applications out of their traditional confines.
However, with so many new applications coming out so quickly, it can be easy to miss the complexity of such applications especially when integrating with existing systems. Our mobile developers have the experience necessary to address these unique considerations when developing mobile applications.BACK-END DEVELOPMENT
Back-end systems require a wide range of programming skills. This type of development requires specific skill and experience to develop, extend, and maintain effectively. These systems may require transactions, persistent data, distributed processing and need to scale with use. We have the background to effectively troubleshoot such issues and have experience implementing solutions that will work within your organization’s technology environment.
Database development and data analysis also are large areas that are becoming more important because more data is being collected, stored, and analyzed. Our developers can help you organize and analyze your data to make the most of what’s available.USER-CENTERED DESIGN
Software that is hard to use costs money. This can be from reduced sales due to poor user-experience, decreased user efficiency, increased development/support/training costs to address issues.
Our team has extensive experience in user interface design and development. We use a human-centered design process involving the client throughout incremental iterative designs to resolve issues before they are etched-in-stone. For existing interfaces, we can perform usability analyses to give you enumerated and actionable items that address specific areas of concern.PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS & TUNING
Performance can make or break a software product, and you typically know when you have a problem. Non-functional requirements, such as this, may or may not be identified at the onset of a project. These are the kinds of requirements that are easily assumed. During the development phase of a project, focus is typically given to the functional requirements of the system. In some cases, performances is identified early in the project only to be ignored later as project priorities shift in order to meet deadlines.
Regardless of the cause, performance problem have a few common characteristics. They can range from a minor slowdown of the system at peak usages times all the way to downtime caused by the system crashing. These problems can have a significant impact on your business on depending on the frequency of incidents. Our staff have extensive experience troubleshooting performance issues and developing software with performance in mind. We’ve helped clients go from processes that were estimated to run for days down to seconds and in some cases less than that.INTEGRATION SOLUTIONS
Systems integration is notoriously difficult, especially when it comes to legacy applications. Don’t be hindered by a legacy application’s inability to interoperate with your other software projects. Silo’d applications can stifle your ability to move fast and innovate with new technologies due to old protocol constraints.
Whether you are looking to integrate your new mobile client with your legacy server application or integrating a third-party product with your internal build, we can help you find a solution that is tailored to your unique technology stack.SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE SERVICES
For most software projects, the longest phase is product maintenance which has it’s own unique set of challenges for a company. It’s easy to think of software as forever working after the initial build phase, but often software ‘ages’ over time.
This ‘aging’ may be in the form of the supporting systems around that software. These systems can include external proprietary systems that are discontinued or removed due to increasing costs, new hardware/devices that need to be specially designed for, and even a dwindling base of skilled workers that are familiar with a particular technology. We can help you: Identify key areas of concern through a technical assessment. Work through your feature backlog. Address items from your list of bugs. Develop a road map to understand your options. Modernize your software development environment and build process.Contact us
