Desktop App Development

Web apps may be taking over, but desktop apps definitely still have a place in the enterprise marketplace. Using the latest technologies, we build rich, user-friendly, custom desktop app developments that fully leverage the advantages of the desktop environment.

Given desktop applications don’t require use of the internet or a server, they offer some unique advantages. For starters, using applications through the desktop environment can provide for a fuller, more enriching user experience. Also, given you can access and utilize desktop apps both on and offline, you have more freedom to utilize the technology whenever needed.

When developing for the desktop, we prioritize functionality, working to simplify complex procedures through easy to use features and striking interface design. Custom desktop app development provides the benefit of tailored features, designed specifically to satisfy the needs of the end user. Let us help you enrich your desktop landscape.

Maximize Your Desktop Capabilities

We utilize modern .NET technologies such as the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) to create rich desktop capabilities for both your customers and enterprise. Together we can create desktop applications that can fulfill all your current needs and objectives.

Desktop Software We've Built

For a biotechnology client, we built acquisition and analysis software that connects to their lab instruments to collect experiment data. Scientists use it to set up and save experiment settings, control lasers, optics and flow rates from one panel, and explore results with dot plots, overlays, graph comparisons and histograms. The application was built with Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and designed to simplify data analysis and speed up experiments.

Our Desktop App Development Process

Every desktop project starts with discovery, where we learn how your team works today, which systems the app must connect to, and what has to work offline. We then design the screens and workflows, build in short, usually two-week sprints with a working build to review at the end of each, and test on the Windows versions and hardware your users rely on. After launch, we handle installers, updates and ongoing support.

Desktop Application Modernization

Many businesses still rely on desktop software built years ago that is hard to maintain, slow, or tied to old versions of Windows and .NET. We review your existing application and recommend whether to update it, rebuild key parts, or move it to a modern platform, while keeping the workflows your team depends on. The goal is software that is easier to maintain, more secure and ready for the years ahead.

Desktop, Web or Both?

Desktop apps are the best fit when your team needs to work offline, handle large files or data sets, or connect directly to instruments, printers and other hardware. Web apps are easier to roll out to many users and update centrally. Many businesses use both: a desktop app for heavy, specialist work and a web portal for everyone else. We help you choose based on your users, data and budget.
