Custom Software for SMEs, when off-the-shelf no longer fits.

Spreadsheets, three tools that don't talk to each other, double data entry: at some point the workaround costs more than a tailor-made solution. matd ag develops custom software for SMEs and tells you honestly when an off-the-shelf tool is enough.

matd ag is based in Rickenbach TG and develops custom software for SMEs in Eastern Switzerland and all of German-speaking Switzerland.

Who it is for

For SMEs whose processes don't fit any off-the-shelf tool.

Typically businesses whose expertise lives in their own processes and who work with lists and workarounds for them today.

  • SMEs with their own, grown processes
  • Businesses with gaps between several tools
  • Sole traders who need a tool for their trade

Typical problems

When workarounds get expensive.

Data in many places

Data sits in spreadsheets, emails and several tools. Every manual transfer costs time and creates errors.

Off-the-shelf only half fits

The standard tool covers a lot, just not the part that makes your business what it is.

Knowledge in one head

A solution only one person understands becomes a risk. Tailor-made software has to be documented and handed over.

Approach

Four steps.

As a sprint, ongoing support or interim technical leadership: the ways of working together are on the engagement models page.

    Initial call

    You describe the process that gets stuck today. We also check whether an off-the-shelf tool is enough.

  2. 02

    Requirements

    Together we describe what the software must do: short, in your language, with priorities.

  3. 03

    Development in stages

    Every stage is usable. You test with real cases before the next one starts.

  4. 04

    Handover and operations

    Documentation, introduction in the team and, on request, operations and maintenance by matd ag.

Frequently asked

What SMEs want to know before the first call.

When is custom software worth it?

When a process defines your business, happens often and no off-the-shelf tool covers it. The guide further down this page helps with the decision.

What does custom software cost?

It depends on the scope. After the initial call and a short requirements document you receive an estimate; the ways of working together are on the engagement models page.

How long does a project take?

We work in stages. The first usable version comes early; we agree the schedule together before we start.

Can existing tools be connected?

Usually yes, as long as the tool has an interface. We check that in the requirements before development starts.

Who looks after the software after launch?

On request matd ag: operations, security updates and further development. The software is documented so it can also be handed over.
