Software Development Consulting

You don’t have to have a substantial development project on the horizon to utilize our expertise. We also offer software development consulting services to clients big and small on all types of projects in various shapes and sizes. Regardless of your current needs, we are here to support you.

As comprehensive experts in software development, we can help you actualize solutions for your current needs, whether it be assistance in formulating requirements, architecture design, user interface design, you name it, we can help. Or, if you just need someone to review your progress to ensure you’re on the right track, we are happy to provide you with an extensive review and advice for anything ranging from code style, architecture, security, and more.

For projects without a clear outline, we can always begin based on time and materials, then later switch to a fixed cost regimen when goals and projects become more defined. We are as flexible as necessary in order to accommodate your needs. Our goal, after all, is to help you succeed!

Take Advantage of Our Expertise

We have also had several clients who started their projects using off-shore developers which ultimately went awry. Since there are high demands for cheap off-shore development work, these off-shore companies will hire virtually anyone, resulting in high turnover rates. Language, cultural, and time zone barriers also drastically and adversely affect projects. Although going off-shore can seem like the best option due to tantalizing lower costs, the project can end up taking much longer with many roadblocks along the way. Because of this, there is no replacement for close proximity, experience, and efficiency. Although we strongly advise against it, if you still want to go off-shore, the least you can do to protect yourself is hire an experienced team to manage the project, making sure it moves along as planned. This better ensures the quality of product you’ll receive, as well as provides you with guidance from a knowledgeable partner.

      Code, Architecture and Security Reviews

      An outside review is often the fastest way to find out why software is slow, hard to change or risky to run. Our engineers review your code style and quality, your architecture and how well it will scale, and your security setup. You get clear findings and practical recommendations, ranked by impact, so your team knows what to fix first.

      • Code quality and style review
      • Architecture and scalability review
      • Security review

      Flexible Consulting Engagements

      You don’t need a large project to work with us. When goals are still unclear, we start on a time-and-materials basis to define requirements and design. Once the scope is clear, we can move to a fixed cost, so you know your budget before development starts. We also offer short advisory engagements and ongoing support for existing software.

      • Time and materials for discovery
      • Fixed cost once scope is clear
      • Short advisory engagements
      • Ongoing support

      Custom Software Development Consulting

      Our custom software development consulting helps you make the big decisions before you spend on development. We help you decide whether to build or buy, turn ideas into clear requirements and a roadmap, get stalled projects back on track, and plan upgrades to aging systems. Founded in 1990, Odyssey brings more than 35 years of custom software experience to every engagement.

      Guidance for Outsourced Development

      Outsourcing custom software development can save money, but turnover, language, time zone and quality issues can quickly erase those savings. If you already work with an outsourced team, we can act as your local technical lead. We review their code and plans, set clear requirements and acceptance criteria, and check quality before each release.

      • Vendor and code review
      • Clear requirements and acceptance criteria
      • Project oversight in your time zone
      • Quality checks before release

      We can't wait to hear all your ideas!
