When Off-the-Shelf Isn't Good Enough

Standard software forces you into standard processes. If your competitive advantage lies in how you do things differently, you need software that supports that difference—not constrains it.

Custom software is built around your workflows, integrates with your existing systems, and evolves as your business grows. No compromises, no workarounds, no paying for features you'll never use.

  • Perfect Fit - Software designed around your exact requirements
  • Full Integration - Connects seamlessly with your existing systems
  • You Own It - No ongoing licence fees or vendor lock-in
  • Scalable - Grows and adapts as your business evolves

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about custom software development in the UK

Custom software development is the process of designing, creating, and maintaining software specifically for your organisation's unique requirements. Unlike off-the-shelf solutions, custom software is built from the ground up to match your exact workflows, integrate with your existing systems, and scale with your business.
Custom software makes sense when: off-the-shelf solutions don't fit your workflows, you need competitive advantage through unique functionality, you're spending too much on licences for features you don't use, you need tight integration with existing systems, or your processes are too complex for standard software. We help you evaluate whether custom is the right choice.
Custom software costs vary based on complexity. Simple business applications start from £25,000-£50,000. Mid-complexity systems with multiple integrations range from £50,000-£150,000. Large enterprise platforms can exceed £200,000. Our North East location allows us to offer rates 20-40% lower than London agencies while maintaining quality.
Timelines depend on scope and complexity. A focused MVP can be delivered in 2-4 months. Mid-complexity applications typically take 4-8 months. Large enterprise systems may take 9-18 months. We use agile development, delivering working software in sprints so you see value early and can provide feedback throughout.
Yes, we offer comprehensive support and maintenance packages. This includes bug fixes, security updates, performance monitoring, feature enhancements, and user support. We recommend budgeting 15-20% of initial development costs annually for maintenance. Many clients retain us on monthly agreements for continuous improvement.
