Software Development Experience

Overview, Articles and Tools

Experience counts at Distributed Network Software, LLC

Creating something from nothing may be risky. Distributed Network Software will eliminate the risk associated with software projects succeeding or not. Things like budgeting, allocating resources and finding the right mix of tools for your application are a result of experience. We're on your team when you need professional software programming services. Our experience with rapid application development minimizes time to implementation and maximizes your return on investment.

At Distributed Network Software (DNS) we have three main focuses. The first being accounting solutions, the second is commercial hosting, and our third main focus is custom software. Custom software is our core business competency and where DNS initially began in 1999. As DNS progressed through the years the accounting solutions and the commercial hosting seemed to complement each other.

What we mean by this is if a customer needed software developed to connect to an existing piece of software that they have to help their company becomes more efficient and profitable it will often lead to hosting that particular application in our hosting facility. The commercial hosting facility is available in our secured environment with 24/7 customer access to outsourced operations and ten megabytes of bandwidth.
 

Team Approach-Quality and Performance

At Distributed Network Software we really focus business solutions on custom software. We develop and design software to your unique business needs. More often than not our customers approach us and have Enterprise Resource Planning systems or Enterprise software and have a need to connect it to another type of software. Our in-house development team exceeds customers expectation by creating successful business solutions.

See our case studies for a few of our success stories. DNS has expertise in developing applications in Visual Basic.NET and C# (pronounced C-sharp) for manufacturers, distributors, and service industries. Once our development team analyzes your requirements they architect and design a solution that best suits your company’s needs.
 

Code review meetings

Code review meetings are peer review process for programmers. The source code is examined for efficiencies and design specifications. This pre-deployment meeting is for programmers to review the work of their peers. It’s a lot like a carpenter making sure that all studs in the wall frames are 16”-on-center before the drywall goes up (otherwise it would be a costly mistake to find out after the occupants moved in). A peer review looks at the internal software source code (the studs), not the end-user graphical part of software (curb appeal from the outside).
