CUSTOM SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

Custom software development is the creation of software applications for a specific user or group of users. This form of software is designed to address your needs precisely, as opposed to the more traditional and widespread off-the-shelf software solutions.

There’s a whole host of benefits to custom software which provides features off-the-shelf software doesn’t and by designing an application specific to your organisational needs affords an increased level of productivity and efficiency.

If you have a need unique enough to warrant bespoke software development, Silvertoad can help you. We work with you to specify and develop applications that will address your specific requirements and allow you to continually enhance the solution to grow and develop with your business.

MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT

With the exploding popularity of smartphones and tablets, mobile App development is becoming a very popular medium of software creation. Mobile applications draw much of their roots from traditional software development but written to utilise the unique features and hardware of mobile devices.

Apps are much like desktop software in that they are designed to use a wide range of programming languages and frameworks and can take on a wide range of shapes in some of the following ways:

Native apps: These are created for specific platforms (iOS / Android) using the software development tools and languages supported by those operating systems.

HTML5 apps: This is based on the near-universal standards of web technologies, HTML5, JavaScript and CSS. These types of apps are cross-compatible and require relatively minimal changes to ensure functionality across operating systems.
