Custom Softwares
The software which is developed for some specific user as per his requirements is known as Custom software. Software can be developed for a variety of purposes, the three most common being to meet specific needs of a specific client/business (the case with custom software), to meet a perceived need of some set of potential users (the case with commercial and open source software), or for personal use.

We are experts in creation of dedicated centers for a number of consecutive projects, where the understanding of requirements and solution elaboration has crucial importance.
Custom Software considerations:-
There are many aspects to consider in the design of a piece of software. The importance of each should reflect the goals the software is trying to achieve.
We are dedicated to achieve following aspects in our solutions:
Compatibility - The software is able to operate with other products that are designed for interoperability with another product. For example, a piece of software may be backward-compatible with an older version of itself.
Extensibility - New capabilities can be added to the software without major changes to the underlying architecture.
Fault-tolerance - The software is resistant to and able to recover from component failure.
Maintainability - The software can be restored to a specified condition within a specified period of time. For example, antivirus software may include the ability to periodically receive virus definition updates in order to maintain the software's effectiveness.
Modularity - the resulting software comprises well defined, independent components. That leads to better maintainability. The components could be then implemented and tested in isolation before being integrated to form a desired software system. This allows division of work in a software development project.
Packaging - Printed material such as the box and manuals should match the style designated for the target market and should enhance usability. All compatibility information should be visible on the outside of the package. All components required for use should be included in the package or specified as a requirement on the outside of the package.
Reliability - The software is able to perform a required function under stated conditions for a specified period of time.
Reusability - the software is able to add further features and modification with slight or no modification.
Robustness - The software is able to operate under stress or tolerate unpredictable or invalid input. For example, it can be designed with resilience to low memory conditions.
Security - The software is able to withstand hostile acts and influences.
Usability - The software user interface must be usable for its target user/audience. Default values for the parameters must be chosen so that they are a good choice for the majority of the users.

Challenging Issue:Client had requirement to implement web project with special effects which may supports layered images moving around the website resulting into an interesting 3D illusion. Client was facing problems with expertise technical resources. Short time duration was one of the major concerns to make website on air.
Solution: We analysed the problem and offered few options to the Client. After few iterations, we implemented a perfect Parallex effect solution, where in background, text and object layers move separately.
Since timelines were very tight, team had to stretch a lot to accomplish the task by due deadlines.
Parallax Effect - AnkTech implemented parallax effect (using JavaScript and JQuery) in this project. The Parallax effect technique feature layered images that move around the website in different speeds/perspectives creating a nice and interesting 3D illusion.
Expression Engine - AnkTech used PHP CMS (expression engine). This CMS enable Admin to modify design and content of the site anytime.
Outcomes: Client liked the overall work and appreciated the team’s effort deliver a complex technical project under high pressure.
