What we do
We specialize in server-side and client-side custom applications. We work on-site or off, in small project teams. Upfront planning and analysis, solid architecture design, and experience with large and small systems ensure the success and satisfaction of our clients. Whether you're an association or non-profit, an assessment and education firm, or just looking for product development, find out how our technical solutions can be applied to your project.
Innovative Approaches
You want your app on the iPhone? No problem. How about a Java client that can be deployed on the Blackberry? We've done that too. Can we utilize cool Web 2.0 animations and flash widgets to deliver exciting experiences on the web? Absolutely.
Breakthrough knocks down barriers like this every day, and we want to take that experience and turn it into a strategic weapon for your development project.
On Budget, On Time
We are a better buy than other local independents because we sell a whole package and fix the bid for your project. There are no unapproved overruns, and we will stay until the job is done, and guarantee our work.
Tools and Technology
The fundamental concept that binds our teams together is an abiding love of developing software. We offer unique client-side technologies and custom software systems that comprise clients' full-line product and service offerings. Our solutions encompass a broad array of client database access technologies; at Breakthrough Technologies, we employ technologies using Microsoft, Java, and Open Source solutions to serve our customers' needs. The results we achieve with Drupal, our open source platform, have proven very successful, and since we are committed to eliminating risk in software development, we also offer several services to supplement the development itself and ensure a smooth and affordable transition to new technology.
Process
Our approach is end-to-end. We manage and exercise each phase of the software development life cycle, from requirements analysis, to design, to testing, to deployment. We do the majority of our software work at our own technologically advanced development center. This environment facilitates Breakthrough's focused approach to solving problems and minimizes the need for clients to invest in overhead, which is necessary to support onsite developers.
Experience
We are a team of very experienced, very capable software engineers who have worked in a large variety of development environments from many different industries and backgrounds. The fundamental concept that binds our teams together is an abiding love of developing software.
Our engineers solve software problems thoroughly. Since we do not outsource core software development, our clients can depend on our efficient use of resources. Our clients know that we aren't finished when the project is complete. We continue to offer customer service whether it's regarding the project we just completed or helping identify new ones for the future.
A Flexible, Full-Service Team
We know that you don't just need a developer or two - you need a full service team that can fill in all of the gaps in your product development engineering group. That means senior technical and architectural resources that can be brought in as needed to assure an excellent design and software architecture. It means business analysts and quality assurance personnel and project managers who are utilized on a part-time basis because you can't afford to hire a bunch of FTEs as you're getting the product off the ground.
At Breakthrough, we identify the critical engineering resources you need for each week of the project and assure you that you have access to excellent, well-trained personnel to execute each critical task and then can be spun off until their services are needed again. This ability to matrix our best talent means that you are only paying for just the hours you need of each resource and are not burning up your startup dollars in capacity you don't need in the early stages of product development.
