Datasplash

We help businesses to develop an affordable software solution for their business, where, off-the-shelf software doesn’t quite meet the needs of your business. We also help businesses that are already using FileMaker Pro; to use it better.

We Provide You With:

• Customer Relationship Management (CRM): Designed to help you love your customers, provide clarity and visibility.
• Costing Systems: That work the way you do, to help you further exploit your current success.
• Sales & Account Management Solutions: Goes hand-in-hand with Costing Systems and gives total clarity to your current sales picture.
• Business Management: Solutions to help you and your staff do your job easier; better; more visibly.
• Support Systems: Helping departments capture data, process data and relieve constraints.
• Productivity Solutions: If you need to do more work with less resources, we help you achieve it.
• Performance Measurement: We help you turn overwhelming into over-performing by simple all-in-one solutions.
• We standardise everything we touch, we overcome today’s problems using current data, so that, tomorrow you are not constrained by yesterday.

How Do We Achieve This?

We work with you to develop a solution that works for you. We capture your current issues by listening to you and your staff. We develop solutions by firstly using Pens & Paper. We believe that you must first see a system on paper before you can start to work on a system of software.

Therefore we loosely work to the following process:

• Actively listen to your needs, concerns and requirements.
• Further talk with your staff to gather additional requirements.
• If required, we help you to map out complex processes, this avoids duplication and helps to streamline the software.
• Develop a simple top level Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) that displays the basic scope of what we are trying to achieve.
• Develop a basic specification, using additional detail where needed.
• Decide who you will nominate as Internal Trainers, if necessary.
• Produce a roll-out and training schedule for the entire group.
• Set goals and targets for the end solution.

How Do We Achieve Economy?

We do this in several ways. Firstly and perhaps most importantly, FileMaker Pro is without doubt the World’s leading database driven software platform. FileMaker Pro is itself aimed at rapid development, no other database software platform comes close when considering development time. However, there are many other factors involved in the overall cost of developing a solution.

Here are just a handful of ways that we achieve the most economical project we possibly can:

• Grasp the entire requirement at the start, this avoids rework and unforeseen changes that can bloat up the costs.
• We use existing code wherever possible, we don’t charge you twice if we already have something written that is usable.
• Nominate Internal Trainers, where possible. This dramatically cuts down the training costs.
• We help you to develop your own working manuals and hand-books, so that, your training process is done your way.
• Build-in scalability for the future, so that, you can invest in the future and not right now. Our solutions are not front-loaded.
• We cost changes on an ad-hoc basis so that you can analyse the most important ones that will make the end solution.
• We will challenge every decision you make, not because we are awkward, but because we want you to have the most economical solution at all times.

See if you think you could work with us, if you have a similar value set there’s a good chance we’ll perform well together. If our values are a miss for you, that’s ok, we can highly recommend several other Developers and Development Companies.
