WEB APP DEVELOPERS
A good web app should give you greater visibility and control of your data it should pull every department in your business into one place so teams stop fighting spreadsheets, power-points and chasing colleagues for updates. It also ensures that approvals move faster, customers get what they need without having to ask and leadership finally sees what’s working.
The other benefit is ownership, you are no longer renting the tools, you are building IP and a business asset in a platform that run your business the way you want it to run. Every workflow you automate, every database you connect becomes part of something you own and over time this will turn into your competitive advantage with faster delivery times, lower overheads and lower dependencies on third parties.

INSIDE OUR WEB APP DEVELOPMENT COMPANY
What We Build
Bespoke web applications: When people spend half their day chasing information or looking in the ever growing number of systems you have, a bespoke web app either joins them together or replaces them so everyone can see instantly whats happening and when.
SaaS platforms: Most SaaS products fail somewhere between launch and the first hundred users. We built great products from the Strategy to designing great user experiences that are intuitive to use to beyond launch when conversions and retentions matter more.
Customer portals & dashboards: Most support time is trained form people asking for updates you already have and customer portal fixes that. It’s designed to give customers real time data, clear insights and becomes a place they trust.
Internal tools & workflows: Every business hits that point where admin starts to become a larger part of the task than the task itself, we see this over and over again in too many spreadsheets, too many email chains and too many workarounds.
Enterprise platforms: Big companies don’t need the latest trend or software, they need systems that work with what they’ve already got. We build platforms that talk to legacy software, respect security policies and keep the auditors happy.
OUR WEB APP DEVELOPERS AND HOW WE WORK
How We Deliver It
Discovery & strategy: We sit with your team and trace what’s actually happening to find the hidden steps, those manual hacks that the team have adopted and look at the data from nobody trusts anymore.
UX & prototyping: People don’t understand wireframes, they understand the user journey by clicking. We get a clickable prototype working in your hands early because it forces thinking and thinking forces decisions.
Agile development: We build in short, sharp sprints with live demos on a regular cadence, you get to see and play with the actual product and dont have reply on interpreting a report.
Quality assurance: We run our testing in the sprint cycles with combination of manual and automated testing. and we try to break it before you do.
Integration & automation: We connect to your internal systems and ensure the right people have the right visibility at the right time, even if we have to automate some of the mundane to make your team more efficient.
Optimisation & scale: We watch and monitor all your analytics tools, we track user behaviour when they go and where they dont, we track support tickets and every signal we can get so the product can be fine-tuned.
CUSTOM WEB APP DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
Our Point of View
We build web apps because they let you prove demand without the cost of a mobile app build. A browser-based platform gets you into the market earlier and gives you clear signals around what your users actually want.
What people often miss is how far a web app can go, they go well behind simple forms and dashboards, you can run complex workflows, AI-driven features or full enterprise systems right in the browser on any device .
We’ve rolled out tools across global organisations that follow internal policies and keeps their data compliant. We have also rolled our SaaS platforms to serves millions of users annually.
The other reason we love web apps is level of control they give you, we down have to wait on an approval process in the app stores to release the next version and in a single deployment everyone is using the latest version and we dont have wait for them to upgrade.
FAQs

Yes absolutely, most engagements are this way, we slot alongside your existing team using our dedicated team model, sharing code reviews, Git workflows and sprint planning; We often work on systems in parallel such as websites, mobile apps and other bespoke software with you and provide that additional technical expertise when time is not your friend.
What technologies do you use?
We work with a variety of modern web technologies like React, Node, Laravel or Python. Some projects need backend development whilst others need more energy in the frontend user interface to run in all web browsers.

How long does a web app build take?
This really depends on many factors like size, complexity and scope, but most projects tend to run somewhere between 4 and 6 months. However some of the larger more complex web app development projects integrating with internal systems and have a heavy enterprise compliance angle can take longer.
What makes a web app scalable?
Many would say the answer to this is all technical and be about what web frameworks are used, how is the app and hosting architected on cloud based solutions. Whilst this is all valid in order for the platform to scale its needs users coming back for more and doing what we want them to do. This is done by providing a great user experience, an intuitive user interface and a relentless approach to optimisation through CRO and support and maintenance.
Who owns the code once it’s built?
We like to keep this simple, once the invoices are paid, the IP and source code are yours and we hand everything over so you’re not tied to us or any one development team.
Do you offer support after launch?
Yes, we always recommend that every project comes with ongoing support options so the system stays healthy. We monitor performance, run updates, handle bug fixes and keep dependencies up to date.
How do you handle data security?

Our web developers follow the OWASP Top 10 standards and ensure that the application is security tested by an independent third party to certify the development process has produced a secure application.
How much does a web app cost?
As this is a bespoke development service, there really is not a set price, however there are trends such as a smaller custom solutions often start around the 25k, while more complex web apps that integrate with enterprise systems or need heavy compliance run much higher and often into the low hundreds.
Do you help with marketing after launch?
Yes this is one of our key differentiators that takes us beyond being purely app developers, we are specialist in conversion rate optimisation, search engine optimisation and a range to digital marketing channels. user engagement and retention means everything to us and this value runs through the entire development process to getting you users.
Why do clients choose Ronins?
Because we have sat in your chairs, we are founders too, we’ve had to spend our own money to streamline and grow so we have a lot of lived experiences. That’s why we take ownership of everything from the strategy to the user experience, the intuitive user interface to the secure product development through to launch marketing, CRO, SEO and Paid Media and other digital marketing. Clients tend to stay with us because we treat their business like it’s ours and we are only as good as our last project.
It was like watching an elite team guide a group of novices (my team) through difficult terrain. They moved as one, flexed, adjusted and constantly managed the user experience, and made it both fun and personal at the same time.
