Development of Custom-Made Web Apps: What Does It Involve And When Is It Worth It?

It’s simple – the more interesting your app, the more success for you. Although an out-of-box solution will get you going with a functional system, investing into development of a tailored web app is much more likely to strike home. You will be able to offer your users something completely unique – something that will exactly match their expectations and wishes. Let’s have a look at some practical examples.

Web App Development – What Is Actually Meant by “Custom-Made”?

You have full control over features, design and future extensions of your app. You can toy with each detail and respond to your users’ wishes in a flexible way. Another bonus is the possibility of launching the app on all devices and operation systems – anytime, anywhere.

Opting for a custom-made web app is a sure bet. A ready-made solution, on the other hand, becomes limiting over time as your business starts to grow. It will deprive you of many handy features and your competition relying on tailored systems will easily overtake you.

So take your time and think twice before you make the decision: A ready-made solution, or a fully tailored app? Experienced programmers will turn even your wildest dreams into reality. Just imagine how excited your users will be!

Who Should Consider a Custom-Made App?

No matter if you demand an app for internal use, small software for end users or a robust, gigantic solution for thousands of people: If you are serious about your business and would like it to grow, you can take it for granted that a custom-made web app will pave your road to success. There will be nothing holding you back.

How Expensive Is Web App Development?

What Are the Steps of Web App Development

The development process for a web app needs to be structured so that everything runs smoothly. As programmers, we are by nature fond of a systematic approach and also have rich experience with projects that had to be launched within a few weeks or months. In such situations, there really is no room for doubts. That’s why we have a clear cooperation procedure in place:

1. Before development – Non-binding initial meeting, specification of requirements and signing of the contract.
2. During development – spurts within agile development, involving programming, testing and presenting results to the client.
3. Final testing – Fine-tuning the last details before publishing the app.
4. Finishing line – Deployment and launch of the project.
5. After development – Support, further development and possible upgrades of the system.

Examples of Custom-Made Web Apps

Make no mistake: There is more to the development of tailored web apps than just a visually appealing and functional system. Another key to success and to faster and smoother business processes is automation. Most of our apps are automated, which means they can do repetitive tasks for you.

Here are some examples of custom-made apps:

• Cattle management system Festada – The app helps to increase the quality of the breeding environment by providing a comprehensive overview of the herds and facilitates keeping track of goat and sheep pedigrees.
• Queue management system for ČSAP – A web app streamlining the transition of clients through the individual research stations and facilitating their check-in.
• Booking system Cordeus – A neat app allowing clients to easily choose one of the services (massage, workout, meditation etc.).
• Method for determining attitudes of employees – Administration environment cooperating with a third-party app for tests using the “word and colour” association method.
• ERP system Delpsys – A progressive web app plus ERP. The ERP system is implemented using the microservices architecture connected to the progressive web app. This ensures a user-friendly experience even on mobile devices.
• YourCover for creating 2D and 3D images – This web app allows you to create professional book covers, graphic elements for gift bags and other items. An unlimited storage for the generated images is included in the account.

Technologies We Use for Web App Development

At Think Easy, we like to experiment with new technologies and are not afraid of entering uncharted waters. Our software can cooperate with third-party apps and is ready for possible future extensions. However, for the most part, we prefer the following technologies:

• Backend (app background for data management): Django (Python), Entity Framework (.NET Core), REST API, GraphQL and Node.js (TypeScript)
• Frontend (app layout visible to users): React.js (TypeScript)

We Recommend Custom-Made Web Apps

“At Think Easy, we use modern technologies to develop web apps on a flexible basis that can be further expanded according to your current needs. This means the app grows with you and you have full control over its design and functionalities. You are not limited by a modular ready-made solution, which, in spite of offering many features in the basic version, blocks you from truly standing out amongst your competitors. A custom-made web app will bring all your ideas to life in no time and you’ll be able to offer unique solutions to your customers. To give a few examples, I can mention our projects such as Festada.cz, Cordeus.cz or Yourcover.cz. That being said, web apps can make work much easier even for yourselves personally – whether it’s accounting and invoicing, data analysis, effective customer support or automation of business processes. In this regard, we helped to increase productivity and reduce operational costs for the organisation Česká společnost AIDS pomoc or the company Delpsys and their ERP system,” says Matouš Mojžíš, the founder and CEO of Think Easy.
