Are you looking for a perfect fit in an off-the-shelf world? You may have found that TimeWise is perfect for your organization... after all, TimeWise is the most versatile off-the-shelf management tool we know of.
However, if you have found that TimeWise covers only 95% of your needs, consider the TimeWise Shared Development Program before you start designing a custom system from scratch. Here's how it works...
David Berman Developments does a lot of custom programming for organizations like yours. If the features you need are features we'd like to see in an upcoming version of TimeWise, we'll offer to program them, and only ask that you cover our costs.
You'll benefit by:
getting just what you need at a great price
not reinventing the wheel
saving money
avoiding months of testing
having software tested by a beta program
having complete documentation
staying on an inexpensive upgrade path
having your programming performed by a firm that must
answer to the quality standards of its entire user base
HERE'S HOW:
Determine the additional features you would like to see in TimeWise. Then jot them down and fax them to us.
An experienced software designer will contact you to discuss your needs in more detail, and then forward a detailed proposal along with a guaranteed firm price.
Once we receive your go-ahead, the new features are programmed according to your specification. After extensive internal testing, you receive a version for your approval. Any requested adjustments are made promptly. You can then proceed to use the new features immediately.
When future versions of TimeWise are released, your features may be included.
Experience: Participants in the Shared Development Program include Occidental Petroleum, the Canadian Armed Forces, and our departments of Agriculture and Revenue. References are available upon request.
