SOFTWARE
With over over 30 years experience Convergence IT will deliver a customised software solution to accommodate your business.
When Off-the-Shelf Programs Just Won't Do!
Today off-the-shelf software like Microsoft Office and other boxed products do a lot more than what they did just a few years ago.
Many times a mass-produced software package will fill your needs, or can be bent to accommodate your business.
Some times, no matter how good the factory made software is, you may find no answers in off-the-shelf products.
Custom Software May Be The Answer
Like any custom built thing, custom written software can be somewhat pricey, but done right, it can be the precise solution for your business needs.
Some of our staff have been producing custom software solutions for our clients for over 30 years.
From simple routines to keep track of a few business orders to networked applications that run an entire company, we do it all!
If you have problem that might be resolved with the application of some custom software,

Custom software projects are broken down in phases. Each phase is discussed as follows:
Phase 1:
We will meet with you for about one hour. During this time we will discuss your needs and requirements.
You should have available any paper forms or other documents that you are currently using. We will outline an approach to fulfill your needs,
and present you with a rough quote of time and cost. This phase is free to you and if you decide not to continue on to software development,
no charge will be made.
Phase 2:
Should you decide to continue on, a retainer of 20% of the total amount will start the design and development process.
Due to other commitments and responsibilities the calendar time will be about two to three times the actual development time for the project.
Phase 3:
At this time we will have the structure of the database defined and we will display, to you, all the major screens that will handle your data.
Your suggestions about the screens are encouraged. A payment of 20% of the total amount will be expected.
Phase 4:
Delivery and installation of the first version of working software on your computer. All major commands and functions will be implemented.
Some lesser commands or functions may not be fully functional. No, or limited, printer reports will be functional at this time.
You will be encouraged to start using the program so you can better see how it works, detect any "Bugs" and suggest changes.
A payment of 20% will be expected.
Phase 5:
Delivery and installation of the second version of your working software on your computer. All commands and functions will be fully functional at this time.
Most printer reports will be working. We expect you to continue to use the program and give us feedback. A payment of 20% of the total amount will be expected.
Phase 6:
Delivery and installation of complete working software. All commands and functions fully functional as well as all printer reports working.
A one to two hour training session for you and your users will be conducted and video taped. The final 20% payment will be expected at this time.
