Softwire

Markets and Skills

Softwire’s core competency is custom software development across a wide range of business applications, covering many market sectors and implementation technologies.

Many of our projects are based on either the Microsoft .NET framework or Java Enterprise Edition technologies. However, we also possess a broad knowledge and expertise of many other programming languages, technologies and operating environments, as illustrated below.

Our customers operate in a wide variety of vertical markets. We have particular experience in the financial (insurance), travel and IT security sectors. However, we are equally happy to take on projects in new market areas and, due to our extremely bright staff, believe we can quickly get up to speed on any industry-specific concepts that may affect the project requirements – a statement which is borne out by our exemplary track record.

We are happy to take on web development, internet development, application (desktop GUI) development, database development, mobile development or other types of projects, as necessary to meet our customers’ requirements.
