FAQ

Custom Software Developer FAQs

What is custom software development?

Custom software development is building software specifically for your organisation and its processes, rather than buying an off-the-shelf product. It fits exactly what you do, integrates with your systems, and belongs to you — ideal when standard tools force costly workarounds.

How much does custom software cost in the UK?

Custom software typically ranges from £25,000 for a lean first release to £150,000+ for a complex platform. The cost is driven by integrations, business logic and scale — not the number of screens.

Do we own the custom software you build?

Yes — you own 100% of the source code, IP and infrastructure, with full documentation and handover. There is no lock-in.
