Software and Database Development

Scomage has been very successful in deploying a number of distributed business solutions for our clients utilizing sound project management and proven multi-tier development technologies. Typically these are custom solutions that provide our clients with a unique business edge.

Our solutions fall mainly into the areas of database developent & data marts, accounting system add-ons & interfaces, and web development.

Whether it's labeled as traditional, client-server, or e-commerce, our specialty is developing database-enabled applications. These applications range from small customizations of existing packages to web back-end processing to large mission critical systems. Our experience includes the design, development, testing, implementation, and support of these applications.

We have experience with almost every database system including: Oracle, SQL Server, DB2/UDB, Informix, Sybase, FoxPro, Interbase, Access, and MySQL. We are also familiar with application-specific databases such as QuickBooks, Exchange, and ACT.

We support all Microsoft operating systems, all Intel-based Linux environments, and most UNIX systems.

The bulk of our development is with the core languages C++ and Java. We also support popular 4th generation languages (Visual Basic, PowerBuilder, Delphi) and scripting languages (ASP, JavaScript, VB script, Perl).

We can provide all of the following custom software development:

• Database Design - logical and physical modeling

While not CPAs, we have CPA and account system knowledge that provides useful benefits to our customers. We can assist customers with implementing, upgrading, or interfacing to their accounting systems.

Although our accounting knowledge is generic, we have the most experience with QuickBooks and Peachtree for the typical small business. We have also worked with industry specific accounting systems such as: Timberline (construction), DDMS (office supplies/printing), ProShop (printing), and FACTS (wholesale).
