Desktop apps

Build software that runs on your computer fast, offline and around your actual workflow

We build Windows, macOS and Linux software for workstations where one person spends the whole shift at one computer: warehouse, checkout, production floor, lab. The app keeps running when the connection drops, talks to printers and scanners directly, and connects to your existing accounting system and CRM.

When you need it

When is desktop software the right choice?

A browser-based system handles plenty of tasks. In the five situations below, the browser's own limits start to get in the way — that is exactly where desktop software fits better than the alternatives.

Choosing a platform

Which platform fits your business?

We put the three options side by side, because the wrong platform means rewriting the system later. The comparison below shows which column your case falls into.

Website or web system

When we choose this

People log in from different places and devices, the workstation is not fixed, and the connection is always there.

What it is good for

  • Access through a link, nothing to install
  • One release reaches everyone at once
  • Giving external clients or partners access
  • Pages that need to be found in search

Mobile app

When we choose this

The employee or customer is on the move: delivery, field work, accepting orders on site.

What it is good for

  • Phone camera, GPS and push notifications
  • Short actions done with one hand
  • An app that stays on the customer's phone
  • Work done on the road or in transit

Desktop software

When we choose this

The work happens at one computer, across a long shift, with large volumes of data.

What it is good for

  • Work that does not stop when the connection drops
  • Direct use of printers, scanners and barcode readers
  • Bulk imports, reports and file operations
  • Keeping data inside the company network

In practice many projects run two platforms together: desktop software at the warehouse and the checkout, and a browser-based reporting panel for the manager. Both draw on the same database, so the numbers match.

Directions

Desktop solutions built around your process

We build software in the six directions below. The starting point is always the same — studying how you work today, then turning that into screens.

Warehouse and stock counting

Receiving, transfers, write-offs and stock counts in one window. Counting with a barcode reader, alerts on stock levels, and a finished report ready to print.

Checkout and point of sale (POS)

Sales, returns, opening and closing a shift. Direct receipt printing, per-cashier reporting, and sales that continue when the connection drops.

Production and shop floor control

Work orders, status by stage, material consumption and finished-goods records. Used on a shop-floor terminal with a simple, large interface.

Report and document generator

Contracts, invoices, acts and internal reports built automatically from templates. Output comes out as PDF or Excel and goes straight to print.

Lab and specialist workstation

Entering measurement results, calculation formulas, history per sample and a structured conclusion. Data never leaves the lab network.

Internal database and archive

Documents, client records or a technical catalogue kept in one database. Fast search, role-based permissions and a log of who changed what.

Technology

We choose the technology to match the functionality

We do not have one answer decided in advance. The choice depends on what the software has to do: which devices connect to it, how heavy the interface is, and who will maintain it afterwards.

Electron.js

When we choose this

When the software works with many reports, tables and external systems, and when you or the local market have plenty of web developers.

What it gives you

  • Shared code and design with your existing web system
  • Access to the file system and devices through Node.js modules
  • Fast assembly of complex table and reporting interfaces
  • Usually easier to find a developer for maintenance later

Flutter Desktop

When we choose this

When the interface is heavy — lots of graphics, live charts, a frequently redrawn screen — or when the same software is also needed on a phone.

What it gives you

  • The interface is drawn directly, so animation stays smooth
  • One codebase for the desktop and mobile versions
  • Its own design language, identical across all three systems
  • Application size and memory use are usually lower

We justify the choice in writing during the discovery stage: a list showing which requirement called for which technology. If both fit equally well, we pick the one that will be easier for you to maintain.

Integrations

Desktop software connects to the systems at your workplace

The software should not end up as an isolated island. We connect it to the systems you already use and to the devices at the workstation.

What happens when the connection drops

The app saves each record to a local database on the computer first, so work does not stop when the link is lost. Once the connection returns, the stored records are sent to the server in order. If one record changed in two places, the app does not silently overwrite it — it shows the conflict in a separate list, and the responsible employee decides which version to keep.

Process

How is desktop software built?

Six stages. Each one ends with a concrete result you can review and approve, so you are not left in the dark until the end of the project.

  1. 01

    Studying the process on site

    We watch how the work is done today: which forms get filled in, which spreadsheet is maintained, where the same mistake keeps happening.

    What you end up withA written requirements list and an inventory of the operations to automate

  2. 02

    Screens and the order of work

    We draw the screens for each role and define the sequence of actions: how many keystrokes an operation should take.

    What you end up withA clickable prototype and a list of roles

  3. 03

    Database and integration architecture

    We design the data structure, the synchronisation rules and the connection points to external systems.

    What you end up withA database schema and an integration plan — which system exchanges what, and how

  4. 04

    Development and internal testing

    We build module by module and test each one separately. Interim versions are handed over for you to review.

    What you end up withA working version and an interim report on the work completed

  5. 05

    Testing at the workstation and training

    We install the software on the real workstation, try it together with your staff and adjust it based on their feedback.

    What you end up withTrained staff and a short usage guide

  6. 06

    Rollout and monitoring

    We prepare the installer, set up automatic updates and watch how the software performs over the first weeks.

    What you end up withAn installer for each platform, a backup routine and a support contact

The timeline depends on the scope of the requirements: a narrow tool for a single workstation takes a few weeks, a multi-role system takes several months. We give the exact timeline at the end of the first stage, once the requirements list is approved.

Pricing

What does the price of desktop software depend on?

There is no ready price table for desktop software, and we are not going to invent one: a single-screen helper tool and a multi-role warehouse system differ in scope several times over. The price is calculated from the factors below.

Factors that shape the quote

  • Number of screens and user roles
  • Structure and size of the database
  • Whether offline mode and synchronisation are required
  • Which platforms are needed: Windows, macOS, Linux
  • Integration with existing systems: accounting, CRM, warehouse database
  • Device support: printers, scanners, barcode readers
  • Report types and export formats
  • Permission model and audit log requirements
  • Installation method and automatic updates
  • Staff training and the length of the support period

We issue the quote once the requirements list is ready — that way the figure rests on the scope of work rather than on a guess. Approved pricing for our other services is available on the pricing page.

Our work

Business systems we have built

The projects below are close to desktop software in complexity: multi-role permissions, live status and automatic report generation.

To be clear: these projects are built on web technologies and they are not desktop applications. They are here for one reason — they show our experience in analysing a workflow, designing multi-role systems and building reporting logic. Once a desktop project joins our portfolio, we will show it here separately.

Questions

Frequently asked questions about desktop software

The questions we are asked most often before a project starts, answered directly.

A web system opens in a browser and runs on a server, while desktop software is installed on the computer itself. That is why desktop software can work without an internet connection, addresses devices such as printers and scanners directly, and processes large volumes of data using the computer's own resources. A web system, in turn, lets people log in from anywhere on any device.

Next step

What usually goes alongside desktop software

Desktop software is rarely the only system in a company. The services below complement it — which ones you need depends on your workflow.

Let's work out which software you actually need

We listen to how you work and tell you plainly whether desktop software really fits or another solution would cost less. If it fits, we prepare the requirements list and the quote.
