When the platform isn't enough

Custom PHP application development

Custom PHP development services for web applications, B2B portals and integrations, on Laravel, Symfony or the PHP code you already have. Built and supported by one team.

  • PHP
  • Laravel
  • Symfony
  • MySQL

Custom PHP applications we build

Usually next to a store or an ERP: the part of the business that no platform covers out of the box.

B2B portals and customer accounts

Self-service portals where business customers see their prices, orders, invoices and documents.

Internal tools and admin panels

Back-office applications for your team: order processing, quotes, product data, reports.

APIs and integration services

Middleware between your store, ERP, CRM and marketplaces, with queues, retries and monitoring.

Pimcore and Akeneo development

Custom bundles, data models and connectors for PIM platforms built on Symfony.

MVPs and new products

A first working version on Laravel, built to grow instead of being rewritten later.

Legacy PHP upgrades

Old PHP code moved to PHP 8, refactored and covered by support, so it stays secure and easy to change.

Choosing the stack

Laravel, Symfony or plain PHP?

Each one fits a different kind of project. We pick the stack after we see yours, and tell you why.

  • Laravel

    B2B portals and customer accounts, internal tools and admin panels, APIs for integrations, MVPs. Fast to build, easy to extend.

  • Symfony

    Long-lived business systems with many rules, complex integrations and data processing. Pimcore, Akeneo, Shopware and Sylius are built on Symfony.

  • Plain PHP

    Existing custom stores and systems: we support them, upgrade them to PHP 8, and move them to a framework step by step when it pays off.

Need Laravel or Symfony developers under your brand?

We work as the development team behind agencies: your email, your project tools, your client. PM, QA and DevOps included.

FAQ

Questions about custom PHP development

Laravel or Symfony: which one should we choose?

Laravel gets portals, admin tools, APIs and MVPs to launch faster. Symfony suits long-lived systems with many business rules, and anything built on Pimcore or Akeneo, which run on Symfony. We recommend one after we see your project, not before.

Do you take over PHP code written by another team?

We need access to the code and the server. Documentation helps, but we don't need it to start. Getting up to speed takes from a few hours to two weeks, depending on the store.

Can you upgrade an old PHP application to PHP 8?

Yes. We update the code and its dependencies step by step, test each step, and keep the application running while we do.

How is a project priced?

Every project is estimated individually. The smallest projects start from $6,000. You get a plan, a timeline and a fixed estimate before any work starts.

How long does a typical project take?

Usually 1.5–2 months. Smaller tasks take from a day to a few weeks.

Can you work under our agency's brand?

Yes. We work under your brand: your email, your project tools. Your client works with you; we do the technical work.
