Custom Software Applications with a solid foundation

Custom Software Application

You’re a good candidate for custom software when…

  • You consistently fill out paper forms with pen or pencil
  • You frequently use a handheld calculator or adding machine
  • You enter the same data into more than one system
  • Your legacy system is about to be taken off-line
  • You do a lot of copying and pasting between programs
  • You constantly ask “I wish I knew how much we spent/made on…”
  • You review printouts for data that you can enter into a spreadsheet for reports
  • You have data on multiple disparate systems - you need Integration or Reporting capabilities
  • You need to streamline but can’t afford to change many employee habits
  • You often think or say “There must be an easier way to do this!”

There is. Hallmark Software & Engineering specializes in designing and building software solutions.

Like a skilled architect, we analyze your needs to produce accurate system “blueprints” (called design documents). Next, we build a scale model of your system (called a working prototype). We refine this model until your software not only meets, but exceeds your needs. We help you ”move in” by getting important historical data converted from your old system and training your users so they are comfortable and skilled at using your system.

Building on a .Net platform your custom application can stay local on your Intranet or be made available to your corporate sites or the world via the Interrnet.

Database

Just as every great house starts with a great blueprint, every great software application starts with a great design.

Sure Foundation
The foundation of any application is its database. A poor database design results in significantly more programming, far less flexibility, and a much higher potential for bugs. A well-designed database, on the other hand, results in:

  • Less programming
  • More flexibility
  • Reliable applications

If terms like relational database, normalization, primary key, referential integrity, and minimal redundancy mean anything to you, you can be assured they mean a lot to us, too. These and other principles guide us in establishing a sure foundation that can be constructed on any standard database product.

Solid Construction
As far as developing software goes, we strive for the smallest, cleanest programs possible using proven development tools such as:

  • Microsoft Office/Visual Basic
  • SQL Server
  • IDS

We believe that just because a program works doesn't mean it's done; we insist on refining our code to provide you with the best, most dependable applications possible using the best tools available.

Straight-Forward Applications
We aim to put tools in the hands of users that they can master in a short period of time. We accomplish this by creating user interfaces that are simple to use, consistent throughout, and employ a minimal number of different objects such as:

  • Text, list, combo, and check boxes
  • Data grids
  • Tree controls
  • Extensive Reporting

Beautiful applications without flashing lights, explosions, smoke, or mirrors. User-friendly. Expandable. Simple. Solid. And built on a sure foundation.
