Development
In the past we have made price calculators, stock checkers, product wizards, desktop weather applications and many more. Most applications work by taking some information and presenting it in a user friendly way as either a sales or information tool. We generally use PHP, mySQL, JavaScript, XML, Flash, Flex and Air but we can fit the methods to the required result.
Website Development
Ok, so your website looks pretty but what does do? Our web development services are wide ranging and include some of the areas listed below but we can pretty much develop anything. If you want your website to "DO" something, be it take client information, present the correct products or services or organise data talk to us about how we can help.
Ecommerce
Ecommerce is where something is sold on the internet. For more than a handful of products it is best to store product data in a database so the information can be easily managed. As well as managing product listings a shopping cart and the ability to checkout and pay you are always handy. We have a standard e-commerce store as one of our Starfish Solutions but we can make bespoke stores as required.
Content Management
Do you need a site with a lot of pages? Is the information on your site likely to change quite often? If this is the case a content management system (CMS) is well suited. This is where website content is stored in a database and can be administered internally via a dashboard. We have a CMS system as one of our Starfish Solutions but custom CMS systems can be made as required.
Intranets
An intranet is a website for people in your own company. These often store product data, stock information, message boards, best practice information adn more.
Database Development
Too much data, not enough time? By storing data in a database and dynamically creating reports a great saving in time is made. A dashboard will allow information to be added easily and many processes can be automated.
