You searched for the software that does exactly what you need — and found ten tools that each do 30% of it. So you juggle: a spreadsheet here, a subscription there, copy-pasting in between. And the nagging certainty that there must be a better way to work.
There is: a custom web application, built around your processes instead of the other way round. Obrentis develops business tools for small companies, tradespeople and freelancers — project tracking, production planning, stock management, client portals — accessible from any browser, nothing to install.
You own 100% of the code, with no forced subscription and no platform lock-in. Your tool starts simple and grows with your business: you pay for what you need, not a generic vendor's full catalogue.
what you gain.
Built around your processes
Your steps, your vocabulary, your rules: a tool made for your business means no more bending your organisation to fit the boxes of generic software.
Your numbers at a glance
A dashboard that shows exactly what you need to decide: key figures, alerts, views by project, by client or by month. Not thirty screens — yours.
One login per person
Each team member gets their own account and permissions: the apprentice doesn't see what the owner sees. Simple, secure, traceable.
Connected to your existing tools
Invoicing, payments, calendar, email: the application integrates with what you already use. Enter data once, and it lands everywhere it should.
Code that belongs to you
You own 100% of the code, the data and the design. No per-seat licences, no platform holding you hostage: if our paths part, everything stays yours.
Grows brick by brick
We start with the essentials, you use it daily, then we add features as your real needs emerge. The application grows at the pace of the business — never the other way round.
frequently asked questions.
Far less than it used to: modern development tools have slashed costs, and custom software is now within reach of a small business. The price depends on scope — number of screens, users and tools to connect. You get a precise figure after a free first call, or an estimate through our online Studio.
A first usable version typically arrives in 4 to 8 weeks depending on scope. We split the project into stages: you start working in the application early, and we refine it with your real feedback rather than a frozen spec.
Two telltale signs: you manage something critical in a spreadsheet (scheduling, production, stock, tracking), or you pay for several subscriptions and use a fraction of each. In both cases, a custom tool is often simpler day to day — and cheaper over time.
We do: hosting, security, backups, fixes — everything is covered, with no forced commitment. And since the code is yours, you can take over whenever you like: any developer can pick it up.
