We develop custom software for businesses: management systems, CRMs and web apps written around the way your team works, connected to the programs you already use. It starts from 2,000 €, and the software grows module by module, on your priorities. Code, documentation and data stay yours.

The shared Excel sheet, the subscription system that does half of what you need, data copied by hand from one program to another. When every day's work passes through three tools that don't talk to each other, the problem isn't the people doing it: it's the software.

Custom software development starts there. We write management systems, CRMs and web apps around the company's real process: who enters a piece of data, who approves it, who reads it at the end of the month. We've done it for a yacht broker, a beauty salon, a platform for restaurants, a tourism marketplace.

We work with companies all over Italy, and the rule is the same for all of them: bespoke software is worth it if the team uses it without a manual, and if code and data stay with the client.

In Sardinia a management system is mostly asked for by companies that live on the season: bookings, shifts, fleets, warehouses that run ten times faster in August than in February. So web app development, here, means tools that hold up at the peak and stay light for the rest of the year.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

What's included.

  • TRY IT

    The same shell on iOS and Android, from the same project.

    The app sections

    Today: the day’s card and two reminders

  • 02

    Management systems

    Job orders, stock, shifts, bookings, quotes. We start from how your team works today, not from a standard module to adapt: every screen answers a question somebody asks every day.

  • 03

    CRM

    Customers, deals, history, reminders. A custom CRM keeps the fields you use and drops the ones nobody fills in. For Your Charter it is the broker's deal management system, next to the website.

  • 04

    Web apps and private areas

    Portals for customers, suppliers or agents: role-based access, documents, orders, the status of each file. Custom web app development has a practical advantage: it opens in the browser, with no stores and nothing to install. In our Italian guide to customer private areas we explain when a simple document area is enough and when you need a real portal connected to company processes. We design the screens first, with the people who will use them: the method is on the UX/UI design page.

  • 05

    Dashboards and reports

    The numbers you chase across three spreadsheets today, on a single screen: sales, bookings, margins, workloads. They update themselves and read well on a phone too.

  • 06

    Integrations

    Invoicing, Stripe payments, WhatsApp Business, calendars, online stores, the programs you already use. A piece of data is entered once and arrives where it's needed, instead of being copied by hand.

  • 07

    Migration from Excel or a subscription

    We bring in records, history and documents from spreadsheets or from the subscription system you are leaving. On day one the new software already holds your data, not an empty table.

METHOD
A management system goes wrong in its scope, not in its code. That's why the first steps are about the process: the first module is in use in 2-3 months, the rest arrives in releases.

TOOLS

What we build it with.

Web apps in React and TypeScript, a Node.js backend with REST APIs, a PostgreSQL database on managed cloud, with automatic backups and error monitoring from day one. Role-based access: the owner sees the margins, the front office sees the files, the customer only their own. No exotic frameworks: documented technologies another team can pick up tomorrow. The code sits in a repository in your name, with the documentation, because custom software is a company asset.

THE POINT

Subscription or your own software?

A subscription system costs little in the first month and a lot in the fifth year. The right question is which one leaves you the data and the rules as you grow. We've written about it at length, in Italian, in our article on subscription versus your own software.

  1. When a subscription is enough

    Standard process, few users, no particular integrations: a good SaaS does the job, and building from scratch would be a waste. We tell you so.

  2. When the fee stops paying off

    The price grows per user or per site, the features you need sit in the next plan up, the data only comes out as CSV. That's where custom business software pays for itself.

  3. When the process is the advantage

    If the way you work is the reason customers choose you, bending it to a generic program means losing it. Software writes it into the code.

Why a management system goes unused

A custom management system rarely fails because of a bug. It fails because nobody uses it, and the causes are nearly always these three.

  1. Copying the old spreadsheet

    Rebuilding the same Excel columns on the web brings the same mistakes with them. We start from what you need to know, not from how it was written down.

  2. Designing it without the people who use it

    The owner looks at the reports, the front office enters the data. If the software only suits the first, the second goes back to the spreadsheet.

  3. Everything in the first version

    Twenty modules at launch are twenty places to trip up. One module used every day is worth more than ten that are ready and never opened. For a new product that's even more true: it's the job of MVP development.

Sarda Trips

Managing eight lodgings between San Teodoro and Porto San Paolo without handing a small fortune to the big booking platforms seemed a pipe dream. Since we have had our own direct channel, margins can breathe again and guests reach us without intermediaries.

Before launching the app for our Pilates classes, between Porto Cervo and the digital side we lost hours coordinating chats and phone calls. Now our clients manage live and on-demand classes on their own, and we finally get to enjoy the work.

SERVICE

Frequently asked.

A custom management system starts from 2,000 €. From there it grows module by module, on your team's priorities: a CRM with two roles and a job-order system are different projects. The quote is written and free, with scope and timings: after a call about your process, or from the configurator at /en/quote/.

The first module is in use in 2-3 months; the rest arrives in releases, while the team is already working on the new software. A management system delivered all at once after a year is the project that fails most often.

Yes. Code in a repository in your name, documentation, access to the database and the cloud. If one day you want to carry on with another team, they can do so without starting again.

Nearly always, if they have APIs: invoicing, online stores, payments, calendars, WhatsApp Business. Where there are none, we work with scheduled exports. We check this in the process map, before the quote.

Yes. Custom software development is easy to follow remotely: the process map on a call, the prototype with your data that you open from the browser, a release every two or three weeks. We work this way with companies all over Italy.

Custom software

The management system that follows the way you work, with code that stays yours.

The price is set by the modules, the integrations and the data to migrate, and the right comparison is with the fees of a subscription over the next five years. We've explained it, in Italian, in our articles on how much custom software costs and on when you really need a custom management system.
