What we do

From a blank sheet of paper to a system that has been running for twenty years, we can help you build it, connect it or bring it up to date.

New applications

Web and desktop applications designed from the requirements up, using .NET, ASP.NET, Angular and SQL Server, with a clean architecture that is easy to maintain and extend.

APIs & integration

RESTful Web APIs and data feeds that connect your systems with each other and with third parties, including real-time services and standards-based timetable and transport data.

Legacy modernisation

Decouple ageing systems behind APIs, migrate databases such as Ingres to SQL Server, and move to current technology in stages without disrupting the business.

Public transport and logistics are where our track record is strongest, but our approach works in any sector: understand how the business really operates, then build software to fit.

Public transport & travel

Our deepest experience. Timetable and fares systems, reservations and ticketing, vehicle tracking, vehicle management, real-time customer information and operator systems for a national coach operator, including industry-standard feeds such as GTFS, ATCO-CIF and SIRI.

Industrial & manufacturing

Production analysis and loss-reduction software for the process and chemical industries, used at multiple sites in the UK and USA, with rapid data entry, reports and graphs.

Finance, distribution & professional services

A coach operations and payments system accounting for around £14 million a month, pricing, quoting and accounting reports for a chemical distributor, a data warehouse for a finance company, and case management systems for a law firm.

Why Cybertron

We get to grips with the detail. Good software depends on understanding the business rules behind it. We work closely with the people who use the system, document what we find, and build exactly what is needed.

Database depth. SQL Server and Ingres are core strengths, from design and tuning to ETL, reporting and migration.

Long-term partnerships. Many of our client relationships span years. We build systems that your own team can support, and we document them to a high standard.

Small and direct. You deal with the person doing the work. No account managers and no layers of hand-offs.

How we work

Understand

We listen, study the existing systems and capture the real requirements.

Design

A clear design and plan, agreed with you before the build starts.

Build

Iterative delivery with regular demonstrations, so there are no surprises.

Support

Thorough documentation, handover and ongoing support when you need it.
