Software Development FAQs

Common questions about our software development services.

Ask Us Anything →
How much does custom software development cost in Australia?
Custom software costs range from AUD $25,000 for a simple internal tool or portal to AUD $600,000+ for a complex enterprise platform with multiple integrations. A mid-complexity business application — such as a custom CRM, quoting system, or operations portal — typically falls in the AUD $60,000–$180,000 range. We provide fixed-price proposals after a free scoping session.
How long does custom software development take?
A simple internal tool or admin portal takes 8–16 weeks. A mid-complexity business application takes 4–9 months. An enterprise platform with multiple system integrations can take 12–24 months. We always provide a milestone-based delivery timeline in our project proposals.
What technologies do you use for software development?
Our backend stack includes PHP/Laravel, Node.js, Python/Django, and .NET. Our frontend stack includes React and Vue.js. We use PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis for data storage, and deploy on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. We recommend the right technology for your specific requirements, not the one most familiar to us.
Can you integrate the software with our existing systems?
Yes. We specialise in integrating with existing ERPs, CRMs, accounting platforms (MYOB, Xero, QuickBooks), payment gateways (Stripe, eWay, Braintree), and third-party REST and SOAP APIs. System integration is one of our most-requested and well-established capabilities.
Who owns the source code and intellectual property?
You do — 100%. We transfer full source code ownership and all intellectual property rights to you upon project completion. We sign an IP assignment agreement at project kickoff, so this is documented and protected from the very start.
What development methodology do you follow?
We primarily use Agile Scrum with two-week sprints, live sprint reviews, and a shared project management portal. For compliance-heavy projects — such as those requiring APRA or TGA documentation — we use a hybrid Agile-Waterfall approach. We adapt our process to what works best for your team and stakeholders.
Do you provide documentation for the software you build?
Yes. Every project includes technical architecture documentation, API reference documentation, database schema diagrams, user manuals, and administrator guides. These are delivered as part of the standard project deliverable package at handover.
What happens if we need changes or support after launch?
We offer flexible support and maintenance contracts from AUD $2,500/month covering bug fixes, security patches, framework and dependency updates, performance monitoring, and agreed feature enhancements. SLA-backed response times are available for critical production systems.
Can you rescue a failing or stalled software project?
Yes. We regularly take over distressed software projects from other agencies or in-house teams. We conduct a thorough technical audit and project management review, then provide an honest recovery plan — including realistic timelines, costs, and a risk assessment — before committing to any remediation work.
Do you build software for government and regulated Australian industries?
Yes. We have experience delivering systems for Australian Government agencies at PROTECTED level, as well as software compliant with APRA CPS 234, TGA SaMD guidelines, the Australian Government ISM, and state government ICT procurement standards.
