Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What technology stack do you build on?
We work across .NET, Java, Python, Node, React, and React Native on the application side, with Azure, AWS, and cloud-native architecture underneath. Stack selection follows your existing environment and the skills your team can maintain long term, rather than whichever framework we prefer. Building on something your engineers cannot support creates a dependency, not a solution.
Do you offer fixed-price or time-and-materials engagements?
Both, and the right choice depends on how well defined the requirements are. Fixed price suits builds where discovery is complete and scope is genuinely settled. Time and materials suits products still finding their shape. What we avoid is fixed pricing on unclear scope, which forces either padded estimates upfront or difficult change conversations later.
How do you handle security and compliance during a build?
Security requirements are captured during discovery and designed into the architecture rather than reviewed at the end. That covers authentication, role-based access, encryption, audit logging, and data residency. Kanerika holds ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II, so the practices your security team will ask about are already documented and operating rather than assembled for your review.
How do you make sure the software scales as we grow?
Scale is an architecture decision made early, not a fix applied later. We design for expected load, define where the system will scale horizontally, and identify the bottlenecks before they become production incidents. Applications that cannot scale are rarely under-resourced. They were built with assumptions nobody revisited once volume changed.
What happens if we want to change vendors later?
You should be able to. Full source, documentation, architecture decision records, and deployment configuration are yours, with no retained components or proprietary frameworks embedded in the build. Vendor lock-in in custom software usually comes from undocumented systems rather than contracts, which is why handover documentation is part of delivery rather than an optional extra.
How is quality assurance handled across the project?
Automated test coverage is built alongside the application, not retrofitted before launch. Unit, integration, and regression suites run on every commit through CI, with manual exploratory testing on each release candidate. User acceptance testing runs with your team on a staging environment that matches production configuration, so nothing surprises anyone at cutover.
Can you build on top of our existing systems instead of replacing them?
Usually yes, and it is often the better economics. We build API layers and middleware over existing platforms, extending what works while replacing only the components that genuinely constrain the business. Full replacement makes sense when the underlying architecture cannot support what you need next. We assess both routes during discovery and present the cost comparison.
What is included in post-launch support?
Defect resolution against agreed response times, performance monitoring, dependency and security patching, and a defined route for enhancement requests. Support runs through a named team: a solution architect, engineers matched to your stack, a QA lead, and a delivery manager who is your escalation point. You meet them before the engagement starts, and the people who scoped the build stay on it.
How much does custom software development cost in Dallas?
Cost tracks feature complexity, integration depth, and support duration. A focused application starts in the low five figures. Dallas custom software development for enterprise environments, with security controls, multiple system integrations, and compliance requirements, typically runs from $50,000 into six figures. Integration with legacy platforms is consistently the largest variable and the most underestimated line in proposals.
What should we look for in a custom software development company in Dallas?
Ask how discovery is run, because underspecified scope causes more failures than weak engineering. Ask who owns the code and whether any reusable components are retained. Ask what happens when requirements change mid-build. ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II matter once your data is in scope. And ask for a reference on a project that went badly.
