Custom Web Development

Custom Web Development

When off-the-shelf solutions don’t quite fit your company’s needs, your project likely requires a custom development strategy. Custom development can come in all shapes and sizes, as well as varied levels of complexity. It is important to choose a team that understands the direction of your custom project so the best possible solution can be implemented. Understanding the big picture surrounding your development needs is one of the areas in which we excel. Below are a few examples of the types of custom development projects on which we’ve worked. However, this is but a small glimpse into what can be accomplished with a focused custom development strategy.

Custom Plugin Development

A custom plugin typically can be thought of as a self-contained subset of code that integrates with a larger software system. For example, CMS frameworks like WordPress and Joomla have a built-in plugin or extension manager that allows developers easily to hook into the core of the framework, accessing functionality and sharing information between the framework and the custom plugin. This allows for easy installation of the code and a seamless user experience all around. We have successfully built and deployed our fair share of plugins, and add-on components to compliment larger web frameworks, like those mentioned above, as well as many others!

Integration with 3rd Party Services

It has become commonplace to integrate components, like web forms, registration/login, among others, with additional third-party services outside the scope of your own code base. Some real-world examples of this include pushing newsletter signups to a mailing list service, embedding aspects of social media into your website, and pushing web-form submissions to third-party data analysis tools. Some of the integrations we have done include:

• Salesforce, Pardot, Hubspot, Marketo, Eloqua
• MailChimp, Constant Contact, Aweber
• Paypal, Authorize.net, Stripe
• Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube
• Google: Maps, Calendar, Analytics, Adsense
• And much more!

Rich Internet Application Development

A rich internet application (RIA) is a web-based software program, accessed from a web browser, which has many of the characteristics of a desktop or mobile application. Curotec can assist you in the management and/or development of an RIA to help streamline your business work flow. Many times RIAs are used to manage sales leads, employee resources, task flow, company knowledge, and more. If you have any questions regarding how a custom RIA can help your business, let us know! We will be glad to help!

Model View Controller (MVC) Development

MVC is a type of software architecture. It isolates the software logic from the user interface or design aspect of the program. Curotec can assist you in many types of MVC development projects utilizing MVC frameworks like Laravel, CodeIgniter, Ruby on Rails, as well as custom-written MVC applications. If you have a specific project with which you need assistance, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
