App & Software Development

Big ideas don't require big teams

Our team has been developing mobile software since 2009 and writing software since the late 90’s. We have designed, developed, and deployed apps for companies of all sizes including Fortune 500 companies. We have experience building B2C, B2B, and Enterprise apps. We are passionate about sharing our experience and producing amazing products for our clients and their users.

Our experience does not just inform our architectures and algorithms. Perhaps more importantly, it informs our approach to executing on your goals. Over the years we have adopted processes designed to allow us to be nimble, communicate efficiently, and make adjustments as needed along the way. We believe tools should work for us, not against us, and we’ve spent years refining our process with productivity in mind.

At Far Edge Studio you will know your development team. We not only invite you to be involved, we encourage you to be an active participant in our development processes. You’ll interact directly with the team and see the progress of their work throughout the development cycle. Having worked as a team for years, we know how to work with one another, and we know how to work together with you.

Apps are more than apps

Software is complicated and it takes time to build in a way that will both add value and scale with your business. Most applications in today's market are feature rich, delivering important and dynamic information. These apps require more than software running on a phone or end user's computer. They require teams of people working together and advanced service architectures that deliver content through well designed and efficient APIs.

Technology is constantly evolving and it is not as easy as it may seem to create custom software. Whether your app is a web app, mobile app, or a complex cloud computing system, we know what it takes to design and build them, then hide the complexity from your users. In fact, hiding complexity is the very objective of using software to enhance our lives. We want to produce a solution that seems so simple that users think it must have been easy to create.

Everything is not a nail

Whether you are building a solution for an existing business or starting a brand new one, Far Edge Studio can work with you to identify your target audience and design solutions with them in mind. Rather than using one technology to solve every problem, we have the experience and expertise to utilize a wide range of technologies and apply them to your specific needs.

Should your app be mobile first? Should you prioritize Android, iOS, web? Will your users have access to reliable Wifi or cellular signal? These and other questions related to your target audience will drive the technologies and tools we use to deliver an appealing app to your users. We do know how to use a hammer, but not everything is a nail.

It's all about value

We know that one of the most important aspects of software design is understanding the real-world value of your project. Whether the goal is for your users to more easily accomplish a task, provide your users with more transparency into a process, or simply to have fun, we help you focus on what matters most. We work with you to establish core principles by which project decisions can be made by clearly defining your objectives and understanding your operational workflows.

Why is this important? When your team is focused on adding value it improves the effective allocation of your budget. It allows the team to approach requests and problem sets from the perspective of that very value. This focus enables us to think beyond the task at hand and design solutions around future value as well.

We identify these things early on in your project through the discovery and design phase, working with your team to understand and define what value means to you and your business.
