The challenge
The digitalisation and automation of business processes are crucial for the competitiveness and efficiency of modern companies. When deciding whether to purchase a standard solution or develop a customised solution, the following points are often decisive:
Limited customisation options – designs aimed at a broad target group often lead to inefficiencies and the need for workarounds. At the same time, user expectations are constantly rising as increasingly personalised and tailored experiences are demanded.
Standardisation issues – A lack of standardised software development processes can lead to inconsistencies and inefficient workflows.
Integration challenges – Integrating standard software into existing systems can be difficult and may require additional middleware or custom development, leading to increased complexity and cost.
Security concerns – Standard solutions are used by many organisations, making them a more attractive target for hackers. Bespoke software can be developed with specific security measures tailored to the needs of your business.

Our solution
We analyse and understand existing business processes, industry specifics and IT landscapes to develop applications that seamlessly integrate and improve your business. The software products are secure and sustainable as they are developed in accordance with compliance requirements, best programming practices, regulations and OSS licence requirements. Particular emphasis is placed on a high level of customer and user orientation through the development of a well thought-out UX strategy and the creation of a user-friendly UI design. Regular testing ensures that the user experience is continuously optimised to guarantee maximum productivity and satisfaction. Accessibility is an integral part of the design and ensures that our applications are accessible to all users. Careful requirements management ensures that the software fulfils the needs and expectations of the stakeholders.
Approach: From fast and user-friendly low-code development to highly flexible and customisable individual development, we offer you the right approach with a perfectly coordinated tech stack and user-friendly design for your specific requirements.
The approach to software development is based on two main pillars: custom development and low code. Custom development focuses on flexibility and maximum adaptability - with a particular focus on cloud-native applications and open source technologies. This approach makes it possible to develop customised solutions that are precisely tailored to your specific requirements. For custom development in particular, we can rely on a large, highly competent near-shore team, which enables us to successfully implement even large and complex applications.
The second approach, low code, is aimed at fast yet flexible development. This is particularly relevant for software projects with low to medium complexity.
Both approaches require a well thought-out and user-friendly user interface. The definition of a UX strategy forms the basis on which we develop the UI design. Through regular testing, we ensure that the user experience always remains optimal and efficient.
