Independent Reach

Custom software for business

<ir>

Independent

is about our software cooperating within your enterprise, as it is today, and as it may evolve. We preserve your IT independence with time-tested practices:

avoid writing applications that run on specific computers or operating systems
avoid closed and non-portable data formats
avoid incorporating proprietary tools in our software stack
avoid technologies that may not have longevity
avoid using products from companies that frequently discontinue products
avoid using products for which expertise is difficult to find
keep program source at the customer site in contracting engagements
provide advice with regard to other software participating in the enterprise

Reach

is about maximizing the audience for an application by following some more rules:

"bake-in" internationalization, customization, personalization
adhere to universal standards on web pages
make provisions for mobile devices
support SMS as a communication medium
produce output in portable or ubiquitous formats like PDF, RTF, XLS, CSV...

"We didn't know custom software could be made for Jewel Wines, but the invoicing system that Independent Reach built for us fits our business so well that we couldn't imagine working without it now."

~ John & Phyllis Junor, Jewel Wines

"I am continually impressed with the Fenestratio program. It is user friendly yet precise. Fenestratio creates accurate information which can easily be applied to all aspects of window and door manufacturing, including sales and service. It is the most adaptable program we have found."

~ Evan Marykuca, Pioneer Window and Door Mfg. Winnipeg, Canada

"At Western Windows we have extremely high standards for quote presentation. Having decided in March to seriously evaluate Fenestratio, we had such a positive experience that as of May 1 we have become an official user through the Early Adopter program."

~ Jeremy Ryan, Western Windows, Calgary, Canada
