Build something new

Web application and middleware development in NZ

Web platforms and the middleware that ties everything together

Frequently asked questions

  • How do I integrate multiple legacy systems into one?

    Through a middleware layer rather than point-to-point connections. With five systems wired directly to each other you maintain up to ten separate links, and each new system adds more. One integration layer owns the data mapping, retries and error handling instead, so adding the sixth system means one new connection, not a round of changes to all the others.

  • Custom web application or off-the-shelf SaaS?

    Buy when your process is standard. Build when the process is your advantage, when no vendor covers your workflow, or when per-seat licence fees have overtaken the cost of owning the software. Plenty of NZ businesses run both: Xero and Microsoft 365 for the standard work, and a custom application for the workflow that sets them apart.

  • Do you build customer portals as well as internal tools?

    Yes, both, and usually on the same platform. Your staff get an operations view for managing orders, bookings or cases, and customers get a portal showing the same records from their side, so there's one source of truth. When a customer updates their details, your team sees it straight away instead of retyping it from an email.

  • How much does a custom web application cost in NZ?

    Expect the low tens of thousands of dollars for a focused first release, such as an internal tool or a customer portal with one or two integrations. A platform with several user types and deeper integrations commonly reaches the low to mid six figures in New Zealand, delivered in stages. What sets the figure is scope and integration work, not day rates.

  • How long does it take to build a web application?

    Integrations with older systems are what usually stretch a web project, so Putti maps every one before committing to a date. With that done, an internal tool or portal with a clear scope often goes live in 8 to 16 weeks. A larger platform is released in stages over several months to a year, so your team uses working software early.

  • Do you support the web application after launch?

    Yes. Putti stays on it through a long-term support arrangement: security and dependency updates, fixes, and new features as your team's needs change. Web platforms earn their value over years, so we build for that from day one, with documented APIs and automated tests that make each later change safer and cheaper to ship.
