Build software around the way your business actually works.
The challenge
Alive Inc. provides custom software development services for organizations that need technology designed around specific business processes, customer journeys, operational requirements, integrations, or product ideas.
Instead of adapting your business to the limitations of generic software, custom development allows the application, workflows, interfaces, integrations, and architecture to be designed around your requirements.
From a focused internal business application to a complex enterprise platform, SaaS product, marketplace, customer portal, or industry-specific system, we can support the software development lifecycle from discovery and architecture through design, development, testing, deployment, and ongoing maintenance.
What we build
Our custom software capabilities include:
Every organization has its own processes, users, data, and operational requirements.
Custom software can be designed around:
Custom business applications can digitize processes that are currently handled through spreadsheets, email, paper-based workflows, disconnected applications, or manual processes.
Applications may include:
Enterprise organizations often require applications capable of supporting multiple departments, locations, teams, user roles, and integrations.
Enterprise software can include:
If you are building software as a commercial product, custom development can provide the foundation for a SaaS platform.
SaaS development can include:
Custom web applications can provide browser-based access to business and customer functionality.
Applications can include:
Customer portals can provide users with secure access to information and services.
Potential functionality includes:
Internal applications can centralize employee and operational workflows.
Potential features include:
Administrative dashboards provide centralized control over applications and business operations.
Depending on the platform, dashboards can manage:
Businesses with specialized customer-management requirements can develop custom CRM functionality.
Potential capabilities include:
Custom ERP development can connect operational functions through a centralized business system.
Potential modules include:
Custom software can support commerce businesses with specialized requirements that standard platforms may not fully address.
Potential functionality includes:
Build custom marketplaces connecting buyers with sellers, service providers, vendors, or other participants.
Marketplace functionality can include:
Custom applications can automate repetitive processes across an organization.
Potential automation includes:
Custom applications frequently need to communicate with other systems.
We can develop and integrate APIs for:
Custom software can provide backend systems for mobile applications. A typical architecture may connect: Mobile App → API → Backend → Database → External Integrations.
This allows web applications, mobile applications, and other interfaces to work with shared business logic and data.
Custom applications can be deployed using appropriate cloud infrastructure.
Cloud environments can provide:
Artificial intelligence can be incorporated into custom applications where it provides a useful business function.
Potential applications include:
Where blockchain technology is appropriate, custom applications can incorporate blockchain-related functionality.
Potential applications include:
Custom software can be designed for specialized industry requirements.
Older software can become difficult to maintain as technologies, infrastructure, integrations, and business requirements change.
Modernization can include:
Security should be considered throughout the software development lifecycle.
Depending on the application, security considerations can include:
Architecture should reflect both current requirements and anticipated future changes.
Depending on the project, architecture may include:
Startups often need to validate an idea before investing in a large-scale platform.
Custom development can support:
As businesses grow, existing tools may become difficult to manage.
Custom software can address:
Enterprise projects may involve:
How we deliver
We understand business objectives, current processes, users, problems, existing software, data, integrations, and functional requirements.
We translate business requirements into functional and technical specifications, including user roles, user journeys, workflows, features, integrations, data structures, and security requirements.
We define the application architecture, technology stack, database structure, API architecture, infrastructure, and integration approach.
We create user flows, wireframes, prototypes, interfaces, dashboards, and design systems.
Development can include frontend, backend, APIs, databases, integrations, dashboards, mobile applications, and automation.
Testing can cover functional requirements, integration, performance, security, user permissions, cross-device behavior, and API functionality.
The application is configured and deployed to the appropriate production environment.
After launch, ongoing services can include bug fixes, security updates, performance improvements, feature development, infrastructure support, API changes, and integrations.
