Who is Server Technology?
We are a boutique software company based outside Boston Massachusetts. We are on the leading edge of a breakthrough in providing custom web databases for business and other organizations who need to automate their processes and share data within their organizations. We build your application on our premises, allowing you to view our progress over the Internet and make comments on how you want the screens to work. We bid our projects as fixed-price, to ensure you get control of costs as well as content.
Why is building custom software better adapting existing software?
Customizing existing software can be very expensive and often leads to compromises that both add to complexity and reduce the usefulness of the final result. Server Technology has developed a very powerful business engine that eliminates 90% of the software development in a new project. This engine allows us to bid custom projects for about the same price as licensing and customizing existing software.
How are our solutions different?
We believe most software is too complex. The one size fits all philosophy leads to too many features that you don’t need and not all of the features you do need. We build simpler web-based software with elegant solutions that include all the features you need and none of the features you don’t.
What is web-based software?
Web-Based Software is software you use over the Internet with a web browser. You don’t have to install any CDs, download any software, or worry about upgrades. If you have used an online bank or web-based email program like Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo Mail then you’ve already used web-based software.
What are the advantages of web based software?
When you use web-based software you don't have to worry about anything technical — you can just do your work. We handle all the security and uptime and backups and upgrades. You can stay focused on what you're good at and we'll handle the rest.
How to get started?
Click here to contact us, tell us what you need and we will get back to you, usually within 24 hours. We listen closely to understand how you will use the application and build exactly what you need without adding confusing features, buttons or screens. We have mastered the art of creating powerful but simple applications with a focus on ease of use.
How Do We Work With You?
We give you a password protected account on our site to provide private access to the development process. You will see your application as it is built. Each new screen will include a 'Feedback' button to allow you to comment, suggest improvements.
This makes better use of your time and ensures you know exactly what is going on at every point in the project. In our experience, this process is not only faster but also results in better products.
Our unique development process puts you in control of the project, gets you up and running quickly and leaves enough time to modify and fine-tune the result to ensure it is exactly what you need.
You will be able to see and comment on each screen as it is created. By giving you early access, we eliminate many of the blind alleys and misunderstandings that often slow other projects down or lower the quality of the result.
Who Uses Our Services?
We specialize in small to medium business or departments within larger businesses. We have customers in retail, financial services, franchising, healthcare and others.
How do we do it?
We have discovered that in spite of how complex modern software has become, nearly every application does roughly the same thing. It collects and presents information on screens that are programmed to implement your business logic. About 90% of every program could have been standardized, though in actual practice, this almost never happens.
We have implemented this 90% in a software platform that can be used over and over again. This platform is highly efficient and based on years of experience. It is completely flexible allowing us to build a wide variety of applications on the same foundation.
We spend less time on deriving specifications and get the screens to you sooner to give you an opportunity to comment on a real implementation, rather than interpreting a specification document.
The bottom line is our software allows us to concentrate on the 10% of the application that is unique to your business and more important, only charge you for that 10 percent.
