Cloud Applications

Development for the web or cloud has been on the increase for the last 10 years, this is mainly due to the demand for accessibility. High speed internet connection such as broadband, makes it highly attractive for businesses to choose web applications instead of the traditional desktop applications.

We are a leading software provider using Microsoft technologies.  As a Microsoft ISV we have immediate access to the latest technologies.

Our recent projects include:

  • Insurance policy management software
  • Course management software
  • Content management software
  • Patient management software
  • Infrastructure management software

Desktop Applications

Sometimes there is no need for an application to be online and there are certain benefits with desktop solutions, such as the fact that desktop solutions are fast and don't have to rely on internet speed.

We develop desktop solutions for Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). We found that a lot of companies with Microsoft Access prefer this technology once their business has outgrown the Access system and there is a need for a new solution.

Our recent projects include:

  • Patient management software for a mobile optician

Database Development

We primarily develop solutions for SQL, but SQL is more than just a database. it has Integration Services (SSIS) and Reporting Services (SSRS) and Analysis Services (BI/SSAS) as components of this product.

We are designing solutions where we utilise all components of this products. For example we used SSIS to integrate a car dealer with a transportation provider. Their system now automatically receives the cars to be transported via the new system.

Our recent projects include:

  • Transportation company interface with car importer
  • Plc. interface for remote offices
  • Optician interface into glazing company
  • Sales cube development

Mapping Applications

We have been asked to create a sophisticated mapping solution for a large business corporation. For this project we have used at the time cutting edge technology, Silverlight, in combination with Bing maps. The map included several layers, such as the wards, National Statistics Office (ONS) data regions and development zones.
The data was supplied by the National Statistics Office (ONS) and Landmark.

Our recent projects include:

  • Inward investment map
  • Marketing campaign map

Reports for the web

  • Management reporting on sales and collections
  • Online invoice production
  • Patient reporting
  • Incident reporting
