Website Design & Development
We attribute our success to our ability to effectively marry good design with appropriate technology.
Design in our world is not only about aesthetic appeal, but also about other factors, such as loading speed, web-safe fonts, printability, cross-browser compatibility, Flash animation and space optimisation, all which contribute to a rich and rewarding user experience.
Technology, on the other hand, is about choosing the right platform for the solution and ensuring that it meets key criteria such as scalability, durability, supportability and affordability.
Custom Development
As more organisations look to streamline their businesses they invariably turn to the web for support.
To date, we have been involved with the design and development of a number of custom web-based solutions such as a Management Information System (MIS), an E-mailing System (modelled on Google Groups), a Label Printing System and a multi-faceted Careers Platform which is currently in production.
We have the necessary skills and resources to handle each project from concept stage, right through to deployment.
Please note: Our preferred technology platform is the LAMP stack – Linux, Apache, MySql and PHP.
Hosted Solutions
With the advent of Web 2.0 and improved connectivity worldwide, there has been a strong move towards hosted solutions.
These include online quoting and invoicing services, data backup and storage services, budgeting tools, map tools (Google Earth), website publishing and HR systems, as well as popular social net We, ourselves, have undertaken working sites like You Tube and Facebook.
To join this move, we have started developing our own products, which we plan to take to market soon and have short-listed a few others for development.
Some of these products include two joint venture projects that could potentially add significant value to the eventing and publishing industries.
Generator is constantly on the lookout for opportunities to produce online products that will change the way we work, play and communicate. Some of these products are homegrown ideas, while others are joint venture opportunities brought to us by 3rd party imagineers.
