Why hire Avonelle?

So you have a software project.. Maybe it is something new - a cool idea you have that could transform your business and take it to the next level. Or maybe you have an existing application that needs some tender loving care, some nagging bugs that you'd like resolved and the occasional enhancement. Or maybe just someone to call if there is an emergency (like when your software becomes dangerous). 

I know finding the right programmer can be tough. Software is expensive, and a lot of programmers charge by the hour against an estimate that suddenly grows at the end. Some developers only like working on shiny new projects, and disappear when it comes time to fix bugs or make minor modifications. And what if you invest all that money, and your application can only support 2 users before it slows to an unusable crawl?

The number one reason why companies hire me is that I make the custom software process as worry-free as possible. Here's how:

  • Fixed-fee pricing. No hourly rates with estimates that shift at the last minute. You will be able to budget each project, and there's no awkward ongoing money negotiation.
  • Proven experience. I've been building software since 1995, and been on my own for more than 18 years. Want to talk to one of my customers? I've been working with some of my customers for more than 20 years!  Or just read what my customers have said about me.
  • Regular communication. I don't disappear into a black hole for 3 months, leaving you wondering what is happening with your software. I'm happy to communicate by email and phone, and all of my clients are local for a reason.
  • Online project tracking. You can see how your project is progressing, no wondering whether it will be done on time. 
  • Flexible support options. Need ongoing support? What about emergency weekend assistance? Or do you just need short-term support immediately after your software launches? I can help craft a support option that is right for your situation and budget. 

Because I have more than just ASP.NET programming skills, I can help you with a complete solution, including:

  • System requirements
  • System design
  • Software development
  • Ongoing support

What the critics are saying...

As someone with over 20 years of software development experience and currently a small business owner, it has been a pleasure working with Avonelle. In addition to being a talented developer, Avonelle also has database expertise and system design skills. Avonelle is open minded and willing to discuss various methodologies for achieving a project goal. She is also not afraid to ask questions which is vital in a software development project. Her up-front project cost (not estimate) is very helpful in budgeting for a project.
