FAQ


Straight answers to the questions we hear most from businesses thinking about bespoke software.

Still have a question?

We're happy to talk it through, with no obligation.

The cost of bespoke software development can vary widely depending on the project's size and complexity and the specific requirements involved. We prioritize the release of a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to get you up and running quickly. For a general idea of the costs for different sized projects, please visit our "Pricing" section.

Of course. We have worked with many clients who started out with only a vague idea of the solution they wanted. We recommend giving us a call or sending an email to discuss your idea. The more information we have, the better quote we can provide.

Jatech offers two flexible approaches to meet your needs. We can build your project on top of our existing proprietary software platform, which allows for quicker development and reduced costs. In this scenario, Jatech retains the intellectual property and code, and there may be a yearly licensing fee in addition to the development costs.

Alternatively, we can develop fully custom software, where you will own the IP and code outright. This option, while more expensive, provides you with the flexibility to host the software with us or take it elsewhere.

Our pricing structure revolves around three main models, each tailored to accommodate different project scenarios.
  • Fixed price - for projects with well-defined scopes. This model lets us offer you a fixed-rate quotation for all your needs within the scope of a given project.
  • Time & Materials - for projects requiring a bit more flexibility. This model lets us work to your needs, on an as-and-when basis, to fulfil your entire vision.
  • Dedicated team - for new or ongoing projects that need our full attention. If you have resource gaps that need filling, this is the model for you.

We provide flexible hosting solutions tailored to your needs. Jatech utilizes its private cloud for many clients to host their software and products. Additionally, we leverage cloud providers like AWS and Azure for clients interested in enterprise services. If you are uncertain about where you want your software hosted, we can collaborate with you to recommend the best approach based on your specific needs and requirements.

Our primary area of expertise is the Microsoft development stack (.NET, C# & SQL). Additionally, we are experienced in various other technologies and languages such as Python, C and C++. We collaborate closely with our clients to select the most suitable technology stack for each project.
