Application Development & Design
Quality custom applications. Simple functionality & ease of use.
We love to solve software problems. We’ll tackle your challenge with a quality custom application that will combine simple functionality and ease of use for your end user.
Our foundation is the careful thinking about how to design information and making it easy for the end user to organize, manipulate and understand it.
Software development, whether it be a web based, mobile or desktop application, is about executing a properly developed plan. Technology itself is just a tool to build a solution to a business problem. The solution, the vision it encompasses, and the problem it solves is really what is at the core of our work. First define the problem, then gather user requirements, identify the desired functionality, understanding the corresponding data required to implement it, and creating a great user experience.
Web Development
Much of software development is now web based, whether on the Internet or on a corporate Intranet.
We use a variety of front end and backend technologies including; Microsoft technologies (.NET, SQL Server, Sharepoint, MS Office) and open source frameworks (php, MySQL(for databases), jQuery).
Application Programming Interfaces/APIs
Modern software is usually composed of building blocks. Each block has a specific functionality and communicates with the other blocks through an API.
This modular way of building software enables you to leverage best-in-class applications without having to reinvent the wheel. It is a cost efficient and time efficient way to develop applications.
Over the years at Transmissions, we have leveraged countless APIs. Google Maps, Shopify, WordPress, Bullhorn, Hubspot, Zoho, HERE Maps, MailChimp, Visio, Word, Excel, Adobe Illustrator among others.
Database Architecture
The crucial phase in database development is not the programming itself, but the information design.
You can trust we will make sure your database collects and returns all the information you desire. We have more than 20 years of experience designing database information.
Our founder's doctoral work in databases and complex information modelling was funded by the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
Desktop Applications
We develop desktop applications. One of our desktop applications has been installed on computers in 22 countries on 5 continents. They’ve been tried and tested. Users downloaded our applications, installed them, and used them.
This is a testimony to the quality of the software we develop, both to its technical soundness, and its ease of use. We can develop desktop applications using a variety of technologies including:
- C++
- Microsoft Access
- .NET
Mobile Development
The decision to make content or functionality available to mobile users does not automatically entail developing a mobile app. Developing a mobile friendly web site is often the best solutions both from a speed, cost, and maintainability point of view.
We can help you decide which route to take. In either case what is certain is that the key to your mobile presence is the ease of use afforded the user.
All our web sites are designed to be mobile friendly. One of the most challenging aspects of mobile application development is user interface design. Here again our user interface design expertise is invaluable.
