Why America?

According to our business experience the most satisfied companies with Hungarian developers are from North - America. So we can offer the most added value to American companies.

Let’s see three facts in a non manipulative way!

• Some of our former customers are from America.
  • Jabil Circuit
  • GE HealthCare
  • AXN / Sony Pictures Entertainment
  • Microsoft
• Many other American companies have their own development resources in Hungary.
  • USTREAM
  • Walt Disney
  • Nav N Go
  • hotels.com
  • General Electric
  • Shell
  • JPMorgan
  • etc…
• Off-shore programming requires a certain level of formalized business work-flows, and American companies are ahead in such disciplined way of working. (Without a high level of company, teleworking and software culture web-based applications cannot help as much as they normally do so the return of investment ratio is the best at formalized / international companies)

Why Canada? (Just because I popped the question to my wife here in Toronto and I love the people of the city.)

Canada’s economy is in a much better shape than the US and the multicultural way of business helps to create our added value.

Why now?

Because of the financial crisis most companies are forced to reduce their costs, so they are in the need of cost-saving solutions. Web-based applications are to save labor hours, off-shore programming is to reduce software development costs so in a demand driven market now is the time for change the old softwares or spreadsheets with business applications made in abroad.

Don’t forget!

Your T-shirt is made in abroad, where will be Your Business Software made?

The most important consultancy activity is having everything in well-shaped written form. As specification we document Your needs in User Stories:

Our development team is a tough job to disturb when they are developing, but believe me they are nice talkative guys in any other situations such as socializing in a pub having a chat about a new video game all the activities You will never get involved with them…

We thought it is a good idea to show You the methodology we use to create an add-on for Your ERP (Oracle, SAP etc…)

Either to create an add-on to Your old software (JDE, Oracle, MS Navision, SAP etc.) or subsitute it - those who invests in taylor-made web-based business applications could expect lower HR costs and one-year ROI.

First question:
Do You have the financial sources to work with a company which works at the daily fee of 250 - 450,- EUR?
(they way we work is custom-tailored service of the web-based applications:

• We spend time with getting to know Your relevant work-flows
• We make a detailed specification BEFORE we start the development process for You
• We document for You every bits-and-pieces of development and communication
• We test Your application a lot before delivering it
• We innovate with You
• We grant You the proprietary right of the source code and the source code itself at the end
• and to achieve a proper application we usually need at least 10-15 mandays

So all in all without the above You can get a much cheaper application but it is not worthy…)

Second question:
Have You ever done such thing like a software development/implementation?
(There is always a first in everything, and everyone agrees that the first is different. It is the same with software developments. That is why it is very important to have a thorough selection for the software firm You would have the first custom-tailored development with. NetGRAL usually works for bigger companies with the routine. It is very rare that we undertake a job for a “first-timer” as it requires much more patience and attention from both sides…)

Third question:
Do You plan to have a Mission Critical software?
(If the application has all the features You desired, will it be indispensable for Your company? It is often the case that companies are ordering softwares without which they can easily go on. If a software is not ready, or will not be ready ever they can still do their business as usual… NetGRAL’s sales strategy is to develop, maintain and support softwares that can bring real positive change and are used every day and essential (Mission Critical) for Your company.)

Fourth question:
Are You sure that databased web technology is the best solution for Your company?
(NetGRAL develops in PHP program language, on Symfony frame-work built with our own NetGRAL items on the top of a database (though database independent) and in this we are strong and good.

You know “shoes from the shoe-shop” - when You got 4 “YES” answers: “web-based business-applications from NetGRAL”

1. You have a robust ERP system implemented at a reasonably high cost (as it happens to be with big out-of-the-box solutions like SAP, ORACLE, MS Navision etc.)
2. As life goes by the need comes for some more functionalities, or an extra module, some extra web-based features. (Some extra You need but not at the price of an ERP developer’s daily fee)
3. You don’t want to replace Your expensive ERP system, You do not want to spend more money on further customization for new functions either, but need to take a further step like all Your competitors! When Your company is on track it is part of the best-practice that time to time You need a feature integrated that was handled in a spreadsheet or even on paper before!

What can You do?

That is the time NetGRAL comes into consideration…

• You don’t need to call Your SAP/ORACLE/Navision partner…
• You don’t need to buy further licenses and further off-the-shelf solutions…
• You don’t need to pay more and more Maintenance Fees for softwares everyone of Your competitors could have…

At these cases You know what You want, if there is a need for further functionalities/modules You know exactly the features You need. (Maybe You need an independent advisory firm to put it together, but You definitely do not need a ready-made software expensively forced to suit You)

WHAT YOU NEED IS: a flexible web-based application

• designed and developed for You
• with everything just like it is in Your existing system if You want
  • the screens,
  • the layouts
  • the menus
  • the buttons
• with all necessary interfaces (the ability of taking and giving relevant data from/to Your existing systems)
• with the the source-code given to You
• and the development documentation given to You
• and one single invoice issued when You are satisfied and accepted the application
