Whether building an application from scratch or creating custom content to integrate with existing assets, custom programming provides a level of focus and freedom that cannot be matched.

If your web site needs dynamic content — a searchable database, an interface for you to update your content, synchronization with an e-commerce processor, etc. — we can build it to meet your unique requirements and your site's design.

More and more companies are moving internal applications and knowledge bases to a private, internal web platform. The benefits are several. Not only are applications installed and managed centrally, they are also "future proof"; not affected by software upgrades or migrations.

If you need to provide custom information services for your clients or business partners an extranet is often the best solution. All of your clients already have web browsers, browsers which support high encryption. Other solutions rely on software users may or may not have. Some clients do not even have the option of supporting other kinds of custom software.

Sometimes proven software already exists for a common need. Whether or not it fits your look or useability needs can be quite another matter. Custom templates bridge that gap and provide a distinct, professional presentation. We can integrate your design with your technology.

When you already have working assets it can often be best if new software features integrate with the old. When existing software is designed to be modular it can often be extended with custom modules to great effect.

When your software or web site is important to you it can be helpful, and in some instances critical, to quality check your code. As they say, "Two heads are better than one."

The standard method of application development is to create the features first and then address security concerns. Whether you want to avoid this pitfall from the outset or are wanting to re-address legacy code it helps to have another set of eyes checking for potential weak points.

You may not see it but the code your site sends to the visitor's browser can be an invisible hindrance to significant members of your audience. Examples of important demographics your site can easily turn away without you knowing it:

• Macintosh users — a growing and upscale segment
• Handheld or mobile devices — how flexible is your site?
• Users with special needs — software should enable people
• Rural clients — business owners with local contacts
• Foreign clients — new opportunities

We have experience examining code to ensure it is suitable for your demographics.

Code which performs adequately when a web site is not very busy may begin to slow down your servers as site traffic grows and resources can become stretched very quickly. If continued growth is expected you will want to evaluate the efficiency of your code. "Lean" code can provide significant cost savings in your deployment and also provide a more enjoyable experience for your users.
