Alliance Solutions offers a range of services from locating third party software applications to meet a customer’s requirements to developing bespoke software solutions using our own software development team.
When an off-the-shelf software solution is not available, the next step often to look at a bespoke software solution. There are two main categories of bespoke software solutions:
Customised Applications
This involves customising a general purpose application. This may be done using macros or some form of custom development tool. There are a large number of applications in this category. This option often costs less than having a fully bespoke solution developed.
Fully Bespoke Solutions
Developing software from scratch allows the ultimate in tailoring a solution to suit the way your organisation works.The majority of applications that Alliance Solutions develops run within a web browser and access a server where the processing and storage work is done. This is a very powerful model and offers easy maintenance and upgrades and a robust platform on which you can run line-of-business applications with peace of mind
We offers very competitive rates for both customisation and fully bespoke software development. For more information see Bespoke Software Solutions or phone 0800 292 2100

A Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is the process of taking analogue audio signals (traditional phone call) and converting them to digital signals that can be transmitted over the Internet.
In place of multiple analogue or ISDN lines a single broadband connection is required. It is generally advisable (but not necessary) to have a separate broadband connection for VoIP traffic.
Modern telephone solutions and computer network solutions are no longer regarded as separate items. Both share the same network cabling, both have central control unit(s) and voicemail is generally stored on network hardware.
The main benefits of a VoIP phone system is flexibility and ease of use. The system is feature rich and all programming is done through a web interface (like computer network equipment).This doesn’t require expensive maintenance contracts to program or maintain the system.
All IP phones whether in the office or at a home office can be an extension of the network with free calls between the phones i.e. between the office and home extensions including conference calling.
Voicemail can be stored or sent as “.wav” email attachments to the recipient, which can be listened to on a mobile device such as a BlackBerry.
