Custom Software Development for Asia-Pacific Businesses

Most custom web applications take 4-9 months from kickoff to production launch. Timeline depends on scope, complexity, and team size. A focused application with 8-12 core features typically takes 4-6 months. A larger platform with multi-user roles, complex business logic, and third-party integrations typically takes 6-9 months. We provide detailed timelines during the proposal phase based on your specific requirements.

Custom software development with Adamo typically starts from USD 150,000 for complete projects. Pricing depends on team composition, project complexity, and engagement duration. Our hourly rates range from USD 30-65 per engineer based on seniority and specialization. For accurate pricing, we recommend a discovery call where we can scope your requirements and provide a detailed proposal within 5-7 business days.

Both. We recommend the approach based on your requirements. Native development (Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android) is better for performance-critical apps, complex animations, or deep integration with device features. Cross-platform development (Flutter, React Native) is better for faster time-to-market, smaller codebase to maintain, and apps where iOS and Android need feature parity. We discuss this trade-off during discovery, not after development starts.

Yes. We regularly take over projects from other vendors when clients need to switch teams or scale up engineering capacity. The process starts with a code audit (1-2 weeks) where we assess code quality, architecture, technical debt, and documentation. We then propose a knowledge transfer plan and gradual ownership transition. Most takeovers complete within 4-6 weeks before our team can deliver new features independently.

You have three options. First, you can take full ownership and your in-house team continues development independently — we provide complete code, documentation, and a knowledge transfer period. Second, you can engage us for ongoing maintenance and support contracts (bug fixes, security patches, minor enhancements). Third, you can transition to a dedicated team engagement for continuous feature development. Most clients choose option two or three.

Code quality is enforced through multiple layers. Every codebase has mandatory code reviews before merging, automated testing with target coverage of 70%+ for critical paths, continuous integration pipelines that block deployments on test failures, regular security scans, and quarterly architecture reviews. Our ISO 9001:2015 quality management framework formalizes these practices across all projects.

Yes, from day one. All source code is hosted in your version control system (your GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket account) — not in ours. You own the code immediately as it's written, not after project completion. Documentation includes technical architecture, API specifications, deployment guides, and operational runbooks. This is included in every project, not an add-on.

Yes to both. You can visit our Vietnam delivery center to meet the engineering team, observe operations, and conduct security/compliance audits — clients regularly do this before major engagements. Conversely, our Vietnam engineers can travel to Singapore for major milestones, workshops, or stakeholder presentations. Your Singapore-based engagement leadership remains your primary day-to-day contact.
