Looking to customize your Directory? Have it done by the same developers who built eDirectory

 A team purely focused on collaboration and inventiveness. We have had a vast amount of custom work done, but this is a testament to the underlying structure of the code, infinitely up-dateable and fluid. We are now on the 4th Major site release and we see good things going forward.  Andy Fields,
CEO, Copybook Group of Companies

eDirectory’s custom development is a powerful service to help enhance, not only the look and feel of your site, but also its layout, functionality and features that are otherwise not be available to you. No matter what type of directory you’ve developed, custom development helps enhance the visitor experience for your site. To see a sample of sites that have had successful custom development work done, please visit our customer spotlight page.

To better understand what our software offers, and what would require customization, below are some explanations of the difference:

• Custom Development - enhancing the layout, features, or functionality of an eDirectory site to include features that are NOT included in the shell software.

Changing the layout, navigation, or any core functionality of an eDirectory site, regardless of the license type, is a customization which is a service provided by eDirectory at an additional cost. Please note, customizations are NOT included as a part of any of our support contracts or services. To understand what the "shell" software includes, without any customizations, please visit www.demodirectory.com.

While eDirectory provides the ability to modify the look and feel of your site, some businesses require further customization on both the style of the directory, as well as the features and functionalities. Hundreds of our clients have relied on our Custom Development team to create directories that go above and beyond the capabilities our system offers.

In order to better serve your needs, the eDirectory Custom Dev team offers a variety of options for you to fulfill choose from when enhancing your site. From hourly rates for minimal work, to custom development packages, our team offers solutions that scale to your business needs, and more important, your budget.

Lead by one of eDirectory’s first employees and Director of Custom Development, José Roberto Almeida brings over 8 years of experience in Project Management, software development and systems analysis. JR has executed hundreds of custom development projects for businesses of all shapes and sizes, and has seen first-hand the advantage of eDirectory’s team when compared to other free lance developers.

"Having been the lead on most of the custom development projects at eDirectory, I’ve been able to witness first-hand the advantage our team brings over other free lance developers. Having the same people customize your directory that developed the software itself really knocks down alot of obstacles that often arise in any development or freelance environment. Our clients end product (directory) is a direct reflection on our team, and company as a whole " JR said.
