Questions
Pricing FAQs
Why does software cost more than a website?
Software typically involves custom logic, data handling, and testing that a marketing website doesn’t — the complexity is in how the system behaves, not just how it looks.
Is ongoing maintenance mandatory?
No — it’s optional, though most clients keep a light maintenance plan active once software is handling real business processes, since issues are far cheaper to catch early.
Can you work with our existing systems?
In most cases yes — integration work is scoped based on what your current systems expose via API or export, which we assess during discovery.
