Once a systems analysis has been completed and it has been determined that a piece of custom designed software is the most appropriate solution to the problems found then it is time to design and build that software.

We start by designing a mock-up of the final software as we see it. This allows the end user and business owner to visualise the software they will be using for many years to come. Clicking on buttons and selecting drop downs (even if they don't do anything yet!) is very often the best way for a client to realise something has been overlooked or misunderstood.

Every software project is different but usually we use a methodology called rapid application development. This is a method of effectively designing the software as you build it. At regular stages the software of tested and demonstrated to you the client to ensure that it is as expected and that everything has been taken into account.

Rapid application development is as the name suggests a fast way of producing high quality software. It requires less planning and specification than other software development models and it allows for changes as the project progresses. To make RAD work effectively you need a lot of interaction between the client and the development team. The development team in turn have to be experienced, motivated, and well organised.

Kro IT Solutions use Microsoft C# .Net 3.5 for all our development projects. We work with the latest development technologies to ensure your finished application is at the cutting edge of computing. This means your software will look good and work well for many years to come. It also means other companies can integrate with it easily.

Our applications are delivered to you by Microsoft's ClickOnce technology. This allows each user to very easily install the software from a link in an email. ClickOnce applications are self-updating; they can check for newer versions as they become available and automatically replace any outdated files.
