needs. Our Software Engineers have the knowledge and expertise needed to deploy even the most complex projects in a timely
manner, while offering clients prices as much as 75% below market!
For optimum price reduction, you will want to consider our Software Development Plans*. By enrolling in our Silver, Gold, or
Platinum plans, you will enjoy various volume discounts. Enrolling in a plan vs. paying the regular hourly development rate gives you
the opportunity to receive lower prices, faster response time, and longer product warranties. Other special benefits of enrollment
include acknowledgement of defects and update requests within 1 business day. Our goal is to perform any fix/update to your
application in under 4 business days.
For example: If you enroll in our Gold Plan, then we will reserve 250 hours/month for software development services for your company.
70% of any unused hours will be rolled over to the next month. Your discount will be between 4% and 8%, depending on the project size.
First time buyers, receive an additional discount of 4% off already reduced price! Also, the warranty period will be extended 20 additional
days and the yearly maintenance fee will be decreased by 4%.
