Q: What is custom development/bespoke?
It is a service designed specifically for your organization’s needs and requirements. It works how you want to, it fits your organization’s work methodology and it means you don't have to change everything you do just to use particular software.

 

Q: What technologies do you base your development on?
Nirph specializes in developing applications and portals on the Microsoft, PHP and Zend platforms. Naturally integration work involves a mix of technology and our IT team is experienced in a variety of tools.

 

Q: Do you offshore your development?
No, we pride ourselves on being available to our clients. We are based in South Africa and we develop in South Africa (although our work goes world-wide).

 

Q: Will you help us formalize what we want?
Yes. Nirph is a traditional consultancy in that we are made up of highly experienced professionals who can both 'do' and offer our years of experience in an advisory capacity. Nirph frequently guides non-IT clients through design and requirements best practice.

 

Q: Do you offer procurement consultancy?
Yes, Nirph has advised clients in the techniques (and industry practices) to ensure the successful procurement of consultancy, technology and of software. Nirph remains independent throughout and we do not bid for the project.

 

Q: Is bespoke really expensive?
Actually it is often far cheaper than buying in software requiring expensive licenses and constant upgrades. Bespoke means you get the parts that you want and you decide when things change (rather than the marketing department of the software company). Also Nirph has a large library of components that we can reuse to reduce the price and to increase the speed of your project.
