In addition to building software, our team of support professionals will ensure your success after the product launch by providing ongoing analysis and enhancements. We support applications that we have built, or have been built by someone else. Please click below to see our Support Plans designed for every situation.

Application Development

Our staff members are hands-on expert developers, with extensive experience in building enterprise-level business applications the *right* way, on budget and on time. Perhaps most importantly, our developers take responsibility for the project. They'll identify potential trouble spots in the application architecture, make sure your schedule and budget are realistic, monitor your testing progress, and give you weekly status reports. If a problem pops up, our developers will alert you immediately... and offer practical solutions.

Moreover, our developers treat every project as a teaching experience. If you're implementing your first big Alpha Anywhere-based project, we'll make sure your own developers learn best practices so that they can apply them to their own development projects in the future.

How We Work

Analysis and Design Phase: We generally begin all contract development projects with an open-ended analysis and design phase, which we treat as an Advisory Services assignment. During this phase, we'll review your requirements, including such factors as the user interface, security, target hardware, data integration, Cloud hosting, and in-house staffing resources. During this phase, we can also create a proof-of-concept prototype that you can use to demonstrate the proposed application to users and other stakeholders. Once we have a working consensus about the application requirements, we'll give you a ballpark cost estimate that you can use to fine-tune your project plan.

Note that the project plan that we develop during this analysis and design phase is your property. You're not obliged to continue with IADN for implementation, and you may use the plan to solicit bids from other developers if you wish. The only requirement that we have is that you pay for the work done on your behalf.

Implementation Phase: When the final project requirements document is completed, IADN will execute a contract with you and work will begin. The contract will cover the following:
 
  • Project scope, expected functionality, and performance benchmarks
  • Development team (IADN and client)
  • Schedule and milestones
  • Project management and reporting
  • Change order process
  • Estimate project cost and payment terms

Cloud service: We can provide you with a secure, cost-effective, and efficient way to build, deploy, and maintain your business applications in the Cloud, either through ZebraHost or with Alpha Software's Cloud.

Application Support

Our goal with the Application Support is to ensure your application is running at peak efficiency, to plan for growth and to anticipate problems.

Whether you are running a mission-critical enterprise application with hundreds or thousands of users, or just starting out, our Application Support package will ensure your application is always available and operating at its maximum capability. The goal with this program is to address the development, deployment, implementation and ongoing maintenance issues that are especially important to Enterprises and large organizations that are using or will be using the Alpha Anywhere as their Rapid Application Development (RMAD) platform.

Once a customer has purchased their Alpha Anywhere subscriptions from Alpha Software Corp. [ASC], IADN will provide them with a range of  services such as a "Getting Started" program, Level 1 technical support, training courses materials (which include classroom-based, online and onsite training options), one-on-one advisory services (such as mentoring) and contract development services, all at special 'members pricing'. 

Program overview

  • Technical support: IADN will provide Level 1 technical support to its Enterprise Maintenance Contract Customers. IADN will assign a designated Account Manager to the Customer as the primary point of contact for technical support requests and other services. The Account Manager will coordinate the resolution of any Customer-related technical issues that arise, working closely with ASC's support and development staff.
     
  • Other services: IADN will provide Enterprise Maintenance Contract customers with a range of additional services,  a "Getting Started" program, Level 1 technical support, training courses and materials (which include classroom-based, online and onsite training options), one-on-one advisory services (such as mentoring) and contract development services, at a special package rate. IADN will also provide its own instructional videos to each of the customer's developers at no cost. 

Proactive Application Support

IADN will assign an account manager to monitor any application the customer develops and provide a monthly checklist covering important factors related to performance, security and current status.
