5 | Highly secure and not prone to security hacks. No upgrade trap. | Prone to security attack if not upgraded regularly |
6 | Minimum cost to develop a custom module | Double or more cost to develop a custom module |
7 | No maintenance issue (for any future change and addition) as all the modules are developed by RP itself. No compatiblity issue. | Maintenance can be an issue. Core Version upgrade can cause compatibility problem with an existing 3rd party plugin. Also any sort of logic changes may not be possible. |
8 | Ideal for any making any custom website, web application that may require future modifications or additions | Not right for custom website or web application that may need future modifications. Website revamp cost may exceed new development cost. |
9 | Right for website that requires maintenance. Even a simple website will need some work work and so the cost. |
Right for information website or ready made websites that does not requires modification other than text/image changes. |
If you are a layman in software development, here are the steps for you to build a large application for your company. These are best when implemented on an agile basis. It still may contain some technical jargon, we will be happy to clarify it if requested ...
The entire cycle is done on an agile process. That means full development is transparent to the DEV team and Operation team. Right person does his job when required. An efficient feedback loop is created. If a defect /anomaly is identified at any step, it is sent back to the previous step and gets corrected. Using this LEAN / DevOps powered Agile development process we can build a system which will provide maximum value to your users without delivering clutter.
We have an automated agile project management system (Agile24) to manage the team management processes. We will not mind using 3rd party software like Jira too if you prefer.
Usage based hiring is recommended only with other hiring models. Say you have hired one or more dedicated / part dedicated developers but suddenly you need help from a creative dsigners (or say load tester). It is quite that a developer will not be able to help you much, even they do, it will be a compromise. So to adhere to quality you should hire a creative designer ( or load tester ) in short ter, get the job done and leave him. We will bill you for the actual hours only. Maximum quality without hitting your budget.
Once it is developed and made live it will be undergo a warranty period of 60 days. Any changes under the project scope or any programming error will be fixed at no extra cost.
After that you should go for a maintenance plan. Depending on your requirement you can choose hire dedicated, part dedicated or simply usage based plan. We will be available to do any type of work for you. It can be routine job or a small change.
You can host it in your server or you can simply leave the hosting part to us too. You can have hosting cum support contract with us. We hire server from the best server companies (Lunarpages or rackspace) not from unreliable companies like Godaddy. We buy backup storage at renowned 3rd party (not with the hosting server people) Storage Company for higher reliability. We will take care of the data backup too. You have to take no hassle. Only thing you have to pay us for our hard work at our nominal rate.

People are often misguided about using the website framework. Sometimes they leave it to the developer, and he came to know the limitation of the framework when they come up with some major modification on the website. They also come to know it when they see their website is hacked and abused all the emails @website are going to spam box.
We are familiar with Drupal, RP, Joomla and Wordpress for making CMS websites.
Wordpress: It is simple and great for a small budget website. Even non developers can customize the look and make a website for you. But changing logic of an existing website module is extremely painful. And avoid making a custom plugin because it is costly. The biggest issue is security. I will suggest not using Wordpress unless you can upgrade the system every time it releases new version. You will lose all your credibility once you are hacked.
Joomla: It is a rigid CMS with lot of limitations. But there are a community and already developed plugin. You opt for Joomla only if you have special reason, say you are comfortable with using it. And pick it when you are sure that you will not try to change the logic of an already developed module or create a new custom module. It will cost too much. You always have to buy a ready module which has an upgrade trap and may not be compatible with new version of Joomla. Since it is an open source you must upgrade regularly to avoid security threats.
Drupal: Stable and more secure than Joomla and WP. Probably it is the best framework amongst open source. There is a big Drupal community and you can find thousands of ready modules to serve different purpose of your website. If the ready modules suit your requirement then you can get started quite quickly. But as it is again an open source framework, security is an issue if it is not upgraded with the new version of the software. Logic change cost can be terrible for a module bought from a 3rd party. Compatibility issues can arise when the plugin developer has not upgraded their plugin supporting the new Drupal version. Developing a new module is always costlier than RP framework.
RP Framework: For a website that may undergo changes over time, RP framework is simply the best. We do not have thousands of modules already developed but we can quickly develop it bespoke to your requirement. The cost of change even after years is also less. It is our own code and it is built to accommodate future changes.
Another reason in favour of using RP framework is the security. Unlike open source, codes are not open to hackers. It really has multi level security layer, and but unlike an open source framework even if there is a hole in our system, hackers cannot know it. You do not need to upgrade every month to keep it safe from hackers.
The final reason is the ease of managing the content. You need to take a training to manage a Drupal/Joomla/WP control panel. Reason, they have lot of things to confuse you that you simply don't need. But for RP panel, we keep only items you need and you just need to play around it to learn the management.
The major cons of RP CMS is it requires some time even to develop a small website. It requires project manager to finalize the right spec and plan the solution, it requires a graphics designer who will design a unique template for you, it requires a developer who will convert the PSD template to HTML, do the required programming and finally it requires a QC developer who will take care of the quality.
There are 4 main reasons.
We are in web development since 1999. In 2004 we developed a PHP MVC framework. Worked on almost all popular web technologies. We implemented many innovative ideas to maximize the client's revenue.
We have a dedicated in-house team of 30+ developers. 80% of them are 6+ years experience. 6 of them are 14+ years of experience. Only experienced developers and experts will work on your projects.
We have six 15+ years of experienced experts who will help to add value at different points of the software development life cycle. Execution will be done by experienced developers and technology experts.
You can't turn a MI phone into an iPhone, once it is built. Because adding qualities as in iPhone requires to be built-in. We have quality checks on every step of the value stream starting right from the code editor.
We are currently focused on the latest tools, technologies, programming languages, frameworks and microservices architectures for developing web, cloud, desktop and mobile apps.
Only programming technologies do not help. We set up our development pipelines with DevOps tools like Jira, GIT, Dockers, Kubernetes and automated testing tools to deliver world-class quality in minimum time.
With the help of experienced and trained resources, 21 years of software development experience, hard work and professional honesty, we provide super service. And still at India Price, as we manage everything from India.
We provide future support. Even if you come back with a small change. Clients stay with for years. And in fact employees too. The main reason behind this is we really care about our clients and employees.
There are solid reasons in its favour. Here are some of those
Freelancer hiring often looks lucrative. But you may have to spend a lot of time getting reliability from a freelancer because of some inherent problems. Here are those.
