Bespoke software & business applications
With the explosion of Software as a Service (SAAS), thousands of business applications are available. But, sometimes, you can’t find the exact product for your business. This is where a company offering bespoke software development services and business applications can help.
Whether you need a system to improve your customer service, streamline your processes, increase your business efficiency or increase your sales, our team will create a bespoke business application to your precise specifications.
Using our tried and tested consultative process, we’ll work with you to understand your business processes and the challenges you’re trying to solve before suggesting the type of software solution that will work for you.
We offer a free initial consultation.

In today’s service-oriented world, customers expect business services to be available around the clock. Web applications are available online, 24/7, 365 days of the year. Whether it’s a SAAS business you’re developing, an internal system that you need to grant employees or clients around the world or a customer portal or service tool that you want to make available, a web application can solve your problem at scale and cost-effectively.
Our software development services team develop responsive web applications that work across all devices, including mobile, tablet and desktop. We use modern web technologies and frameworks such as Microsoft .NET, Javascript and PHP, React, Vue.js and Angular to guarantee a robust custom software solution.

Software development for startups
It all starts with an idea, a business challenge or an opportunity. But how do you get started? That’s where Lightflows come in. Having worked with many startup businesses, we understand your challenges are different from those of established companies.
When starting a new business or venture, you don’t always have all the answers. Sometimes, you need to test the water before committing to a complete project. Our skilled team of product developers and consultants know this. We can assist all the way, from initial planning, specification documents, design and product prototypes to delivering your Minimum Viable Product (MVP)

Customer portal software development services
Many businesses increase their customer service, loyalty and brand awareness by developing custom business software and reducing costs by opening up their services via a customer portal.
Customer portal business software can provide access to information and services even outside of business hours. There are many benefits of having a customer service portal, including:
Improved communications. By directing customers to your messaging centre, you improve efficiency and keep all conversations in one place. Give clients access to private information without contacting you; electronically share policies, statements, and other documents.
Document exchange. Allow customers to upload large files directly to you without file transfer services.

One with extensive experience in creating cross-platform games and applications with high-quality graphics? You’ve found it.

At Lightflows, we’re not just developers. We’re also your trusted creative partner, ready to help transform your ideas into fully-fledged, awe-inspiring experiences that shine across all platforms. Faster than you ever thought possible.
