Getting to know what we know best
Our diverse skills and years of experience have built a unique toolkit, allowing us to handle a wide variety of projects.
We jump into every project with fresh eyes and curiosity, taking the time to understand the ins and outs of your operations. We don't just look at what you need right now, but also consider how things might grow and change down the line. Our discovery process is flexible and tailored to each project, focusing on the key areas that will shape your future.
Show of strengths
To get a feel for the tools we use and what we can do, here’s a whistle stop tour of our main specialisms.
Tackling the tough jobs
Sensitive data
Our customers include legal, medical, and financial specialists, who trust us to create software complete with the most robust protection against fraud and attacks.
If you work in a regulated industry or have particular needs when it comes to information security, we can help.
Accreditations
Our certification includes some of the most stringent security requirements in the UK: ISO27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, and registration with the NHS DSP Toolkit.
In practice, that means we securely create products that use and organise health records, legal files and financial information.
Cloud native
Scalability
Dial resources up or down, depending on what you need – in other words, right-size. There’s no danger of hitting a capacity ceiling, so your application will always be able to do what you need it to.
Cost-effective
Linked to scalability, the
pay-as-you-go model means you’re only charged for the resources you actually use. And we’ll help you to manage that cost, so you know what to expect and how to plan for it.
High availability
Is it vital that your system doesn’t go down? Cloud-native applications bring the availability reassurance you’re looking for.
Performance
Fast, easy to iterate and accessible, cloud-native development provides the performance you and your customers demand.
Our go-to digital toolkit
React
Our whole team is skilled in React, which we use extensively to build single-page applications. With beautiful front-end design and easy-to-update functions , it’s particularly useful for new, mobile-first and responsive uses.
Django
Django, along with its related content management system Wagtail, is a key tool we often use when cloud-native scalability isn't a priority. It's a trusted standard for web apps, particularly when it comes to CRUD (create, read, update and delete). It’s an invaluable piece of our jigsaw.
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
We're highly qualified in AWS and have been using it since 2015. Over that time, we’ve clocked up plenty of experience and tools for excellent cloud-native development, creating everything from large-scale content management systems to high-performance SaaS systems.
Microsoft Azure
Our Azure success stories range from machine learning architecture for the NHS to architecture, integration, and management for the highly innovative Electron low-carbon energy grid, integrating Kubernetes and Akka.NET.
Case study
Bringing a fresh Perspective to essential pension
industry data
Pendragon, a specialist provider of legal and regulatory information services to the UK pensions industry, is rightly proud of its flagship product, Perspective. But this indispensable electronic information service was showing its age – and resisting attempts to drag it up to date.
To hang on to its position, cloud-based convenience was a must. But two previous attempts to shift it from desktop to SaaS had failed for being too slow. How could we overcome the technical barriers to bring Perspective up to date without losing performance?
