The same information is typed into three places: a spreadsheet, the accounts package and an email.
Custom software development for Irish businesses
WDI is an Irish software development company. We build web applications, customer and trade portals, CRMs and internal tools for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets, paper and off-the-shelf software that nearly fits. Everything we build connects to the systems you already run, so your team enters information once.
When custom software makes sense
Customers ring or email for things they could check themselves, such as an order, a price list or an invoice.
An off-the-shelf tool covers most of the job and the team works around the rest.
Key knowledge lives in one person's head or inbox.
If none of these sound familiar, you probably don't need custom software, and we'll say so.
What we build
Internal tools and dashboards
Job tracking, approvals, timesheets and weekly reporting.
Integrations from €2,500 + VAT; a fixed price after a short call.
Examples of our work
About 170 products with no public prices, enquiry buttons, a customer account area and courier tracking.
Read the write-upOur own AI product for drafting tender answers from a company's own records.
Site paperwork replaced with a digital record that reaches the office the same day.
How we work
1. A call to find the process worth fixing first.
2. A short written scope: what it does, what it connects to and what it won't do.
3. A working first version in use by your team, then improvements in small steps.
4. Ongoing support and changes as the business grows.
Custom software or an off-the-shelf tool?
Off-the-shelf wins when your process is standard: accounts, payroll, email. Custom wins when the process is how you compete, or when you'd otherwise pay for three tools and still glue them together by hand. Often the answer is both: keep the standard tools and build the piece that links them. See our comparison of software development companies in Ireland.
Frequently asked questions
What does a software development company do?
It designs, builds and maintains software for a specific business, from web apps and portals to internal tools and integrations.
Do you build mobile apps?
Yes, where an app is the right tool. Many of our builds are web apps that work on any phone, so no app store is needed.
Who owns the software you build?
Ownership and hosting are agreed in writing in the scope before work starts.
Can you work with our existing systems?
Yes. Most projects connect to an accounts package, online shop, email or website the business already uses.
Do you only build for construction?
No. We build for Irish businesses in any sector, with a lot of experience in construction and trade supply.
