site and application development (web, desktop, mobile)
Specializing in eCommerce, Content Management Systems, Open Source Development
No matter what you are aiming to create, our experience, philosophy, and processes will get you where you need to be from a technology standpoint. Our portfolio reflects the range of what we've built for clients, and we're always up for solving new challenges. We don't believe in reinventing the wheel, so whenever possible we utilize open source software, customize it, and leverage the power of the developer community to get you from inception to completion in record time. We also have proprietary in-house tools that even further streamline the development process. If your business needs it, we can build it.
Infrastructure & Scalability Setup
Site crashing? Loading slowly? Can you handle the Oprah traffic? We make it so you can go to sleep at night knowing that if 1 or 1,000,000 people come to your site, everything will continue to run smoothly. Our vast understanding of fundamental computer science extends to our rock solid infrastructure deployment. Utilizing the latest technology and cloud computing, we can create an enterprise level offering for a fraction of the cost. To offer you an example, an infrastructure that used to cost $80,000 can be done now for $2,000. That's not a typo. We can also automatically load balance the traffic, add/remove servers on the fly, tie you into content distribution networks, and more.
Research
Have an idea for a web project but not exactly sure what needs to be done in terms of scope, depth, timeline, or budget? We can conduct the necessary research and put together a series of documents that take you from idea to concrete implementation plan, ready to execute. We will determine what is technologically necessary to achieve your goals, as well as what exists open-source versus what needs to be built from scratch. From there, we can walk you through a potential feature-set with an attached timeline and budget.
Agency Partnership
We engage in long-term partnerships with branding and web design firms to serve as their ongoing development resource. These are companies who provide web services to their clients, but don't have an in-house development team. We collaborate very closely to bring their visions to life. In some cases we are a client-facing partner; in others, we remain behind-the-scenes.
Maintenance
Your site or application is built; now who will maintain it? Your business is your web presence and every day that you aren't updating, creating new content or features, and ensuring that your site is secure, you are leaving yourself vulnerable to the competition. Sites today are living, breathing entities and require constant care and growth. Our dedicated team can be available to you for as little as answering questions to 24x7x365 monitoring of all your services. Part of our philosophy and mission statement is to build long term partnerships with our clients, and our commitment to our maintenance agreements reflect this fully.
Consulting
If you already have an IT organization in place, we can provide added expertise and oversee everyday processes. Our services range from building out an architectural roadmap to getting down in the trenches and reviewing code. And you don't need to have an entire IT department - we can also assist you in building one out by providing recruiting, hiring and developing education in order to get your organization underway.
