Custom software

Custom software: a tool built around your business

I handle custom software development for SMEs: business tools, CMS and connections between your software, delivered in stages at a fixed price and hosted in Switzerland. The scoping workshop costs CHF 490 excl. VAT, deducted from the project, and the first stage starts at CHF 8,000 excl. VAT.

Free · no commitment · an initial look at your tools · you talk directly to the person who codes

Vehicles listed on AutoScout24 arrive here with no re-entry, complete with photo and price. You can filter them by make, price, fuel type or gearbox.

  • Spreadsheets bursting at the seams

    When a spreadsheet file becomes the heart of the business, one mistake gets expensive. Custom-built software keeps every piece of data in the right place.

  • Software that imposes its own way of working

    Off-the-shelf solutions make you work their way. Custom-built software follows yours.

  • Double data entry

    As with Schwaller, a connection between two pieces of software avoids entering the same information twice.

  • Scoping workshop

    What the tool needs to do, and what it won’t do; deducted from the project.

  • Fixed-price stages

    Each stage has its own fixed price and delivery.

  • Business tools and CMS

    Designed around your way of working.

  • API connections

    Your software exchanges data, with no double entry.

  • Hosting and maintenance

    I host it in Switzerland and keep it maintained.

  • Documentation

    The tool delivered with its documentation.

Not included: changes made along the way, costed before they’re made.

    The project is broken down into stages, each with its own fixed price and delivery.

  3. The tool in service from the first stage

    You use it right away; the following stages build on your feedback.

How much does custom software cost?

The first stage starts at CHF 8,000 excl. VAT. The scoping workshop, at CHF 490 excl. VAT and deducted from the project, breaks the project into stages and sets the price of each before we start.

Custom-built or off-the-shelf software?

If off-the-shelf software does what you need, I’ll tell you. Custom-built software is worth it when your way of working doesn’t fit any existing tool, or when several pieces of software need to talk to each other.

What if my needs change along the way?

That’s what the breakdown into stages is for: each stage is approved before the next, and every change is costed before it’s made.

Can you connect my software together?

Yes, through their APIs: that’s what I did for Schwaller, whose website is connected to AutoScout24.

Who hosts the tool?

I host it in Switzerland and keep it maintained.

20 minutes to stop panicking.
