Our Technology

We help you build your business, Not re-invent the wheel.

We try to avoid what we see as the custom software development trap. We found that for many small businesses, developing custom web-based software solutions is inappropriate. Most small firms lack the capabilities or financial resources to maintain custom applications over the long-term. More often than not, these custom solutions become barriers to progress in short order.

We favour commercial and open source solutions over custom software development.

For small companies in particular, we found it to be much more responsible to use and customize commercially available software or well supported open source software that will grow, advance and stay abreast of security challenges without your company picking up the tab for every advancement.

We also encourage clients to use content management systems that enable their regular staff to update their website content, without becoming internet marketing experts.

Our approach is to monitor the open source and commercial software options most necessary to our clients and develop a toolkit of compatible best of breed solutions. In this way, clients can be assured of on-going developments, 3rd party training resources, security updates, interface improvements, and the availability of help if they no longer wish to maintain a relationship with Accrue.
