Norwich Custom Software
Custom Software Development for Norwich Businesses
Custom software development in Norwich for businesses that have outgrown the tools they started with. We build the integrations that make your website, CRM, accounts and stock system agree with each other, the WordPress, WooCommerce and Shopify plugins and apps that do what the off-the-shelf ones almost do, and the portals and internal tools that take manual work off your team. Scoped and priced at 86 St. Benedicts Street before any code is written.

Based in Norwich
We are Norwich-based, so you are working with a local team that knows the city and the businesses in it, not a faceless ticket queue.
Fixed-Price & On Scope
Every project is scoped and priced before work begins. No open-ended billing, and no invoices you did not see coming.
The Integrations Norwich Firms Ask For Most
The most common request we get from Norwich businesses is not a new system. It is making two existing ones talk. A retailer on the Lanes wants WooCommerce orders to land in Sage without re-keying. A firm of accountants near the city centre wants website enquiries to create a HubSpot contact with the right owner. A hospitality group wants bookings, deposits and its email marketing platform to share one record of the customer. A Norwich Research Park company wants its portal to pull from the same database its sales team uses.
None of those is exotic, and all of them are being done by hand somewhere in the city right now. An integration built properly, with error handling and a log you can read, does the job every time and tells you when something upstream changes. Our custom software and web app development service covers the full range, and our Norfolk custom software page picks up businesses across the county. If what you need is a new website rather than custom functionality, our Norwich web design page covers that, and tracking and analytics covers measuring it.
Accounts and payments
Sage, Xero, Stripe and Opayo connected to your store or booking system, so invoices, payments and reconciliation happen without a spreadsheet in the middle.
CRM and enquiries
Website forms, quotes and calls pushed into HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive or a custom CRM with the right fields, source and owner attached.
Stock, fulfilment and email
Stock levels, dispatch and customer emails kept in step across your website, warehouse and marketing platform, with a record of every sync.
Custom Plugins, Apps and Tools Built in the City
Beyond integrations, the work falls into four shapes, and a typical Norwich project pairs two of them.
Custom WordPress and WooCommerce Plugins
Bespoke plugins and extensions for the functionality the plugin directory almost covers: trade pricing, configurators, order workflows, membership rules. Written to WordPress coding standards, so a core update does not take them down.
Shopify App Development
Custom or public apps for Shopify stores, built with the platform's APIs, webhooks and extensions. Conectia is one of ours: a Shopify affiliate tracking app, live on the Shopify App Store, that follows orders across Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento and custom platforms.
Portals and Internal Tools
Client portals, staff intranets, booking and job management tools and dashboards for Norwich firms whose processes have outgrown spreadsheets and email. Designed with the people who will use them, not for a demo.
Web Applications
Products built end to end, from payments and accounts to the admin side. Legionella Sampling runs its whole operation on one: Stripe checkout and subscriptions, QR sample tracking and AI-assisted results.
Scoped Around a Table on St. Benedicts Street
RevUp Online is based at 86 St. Benedicts Street in Norwich, and we do not work remotely. For custom software that is the difference between a specification written from a phone call and one written after watching how your team actually uses the tools they have. We come to your office, sit with the people who will use the system, and write the scope from what we see. The build then runs on a staging environment you can try things on from anywhere.
When Bespoke Beats Off-the-Shelf for a Norwich Business
Most of the time the honest answer is to keep the tool you already pay for. Off-the-shelf software is cheap, maintained by someone else and good enough for the average business. Bespoke earns its place in three situations: when the tool makes your team work around it every day, when the data you need is split across systems that will not connect, and when the thing you sell is the software itself.
You get that verdict before a quote, and sometimes the verdict is that you do not need us yet. When a build is right, every project gets a written scope and a fixed price, the founders who scope it are the ones who build it, and the code and documentation are yours, so another Norwich developer could pick it up if you ever wanted them to.
Discuss Your ProjectA straight answer first
If a configured off-the-shelf tool would do the job for less, we say so and stop there.
Priced before it is built
The specification and the price are agreed in writing first, and changes are priced before they affect the cost.
Founders, not juniors
The two of us have over 15 years' experience each, and we are the ones building it. Nobody learns on your project.
You own the code
Source and documentation handed over, written to standard platforms, with month-to-month support if you want it and no lock-in.
Custom Software Questions From Norwich Businesses
Are you a freelance software developer in Norwich, or an agency?
Two founders and a small team in the city, so between the two. You deal directly with the people writing the code, as you would with a freelancer, but the work does not stop when one person is away and the system is supported for years afterwards.
Can you connect my website to the accounting or CRM system I already use?
Almost certainly. We have built integrations with Sage, Xero, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Stripe, Opayo and a long list of stock, fulfilment and email platforms over their APIs. If your system has an API, or even a reliable export, it can usually be connected. The scope says exactly what will sync and how often.
What does custom software cost for a small Norwich business?
It depends entirely on what is being built, which is why every project is priced on a written scope rather than a rate card. A single integration or a custom WooCommerce plugin is a few weeks of work; a portal or web app is more. A smaller first phase is nearly always possible, and we will tell you if an existing tool would do the job for less.
Do you build custom plugins for WordPress and WooCommerce sites?
Yes. Bespoke plugins and WooCommerce extensions are a large part of our work, from custom pricing and checkout rules to product configurators and trade account systems. They are written to WordPress coding standards so core and theme updates do not break them, which is where cheap plugins usually fail.
What happens after the software is live?
Fixes, changes and the next phase are handled on a month-to-month retainer or per project. You own the code and the documentation, so you are never dependent on us, and most clients keep working with us because a team that already knows the system is simply quicker.
Can you work with our existing developer or agency?
Yes. Plenty of Norwich businesses have a developer who built the site and a different need now, such as an integration or a portal. We scope the work so it sits alongside what they maintain, agree who owns what, and hand over documentation so nobody is left guessing later.
