Our team works closely with you to design and implement systems that fit your business perfectly. Backed by ISO 9001, Cyber Essentials and over a decade of experience in working with Microsoft Access and SQL Server.
Your email address will only be used for responding to your enquiry.
From modern web apps to full-scale database replacements, we build custom systems designed around your workflows - secure, scalable, and supported long-term.
Outgrown legacy spreadsheets? We build secure, scalable web apps that streamline data entry, reporting, and approvals - tailored to your workflows and tech stack.
Need full control over your data? We build secure, on-premise apps that run on your network or VPN - ideal for regulated or high-security environments.
Relying on an ageing Access system? We reverse-engineer and rebuild legacy databases into stable, scalable platforms - without losing business-critical data.
Need expert guidance before committing to a build? Our senior consultants can review your systems, define requirements, or advise on the best solution path.
We can implement APIs to seamlessly integrate with other business systems including Xero, Sage, SAP, SharePoint and many others.
Experiencing performance issues? We tune database architecture, queries, and indexing to improve speed, reliability, and scalability.
We build robust, bespoke systems to replace spreadsheets, Access databases, and legacy tools. With over a decade of experience, we work closely with enterprise teams to design and deliver solutions that are secure, scalable, and aligned to your operations.
Our UK-based team is Microsoft certified and experienced in SQL Server,
Access, .NET, and Azure.
Most projects begin with a structured discovery phase to support planning, stakeholder alignment, and internal approval - before moving into phased delivery.
We support mid-size to enterprise clients across a wide range of industries – particularly where legacy tools, manual processes, and disconnected systems are slowing growth or increasing operational risk.

Here's what some of our clients have to say about working with us.
You can read all of our reviews on Google.
Head of Supply Finance, Treasury Wine Estates
"An ERP implementation at work left us with a few process gaps. Worked with Lee on implementing a database to fill the void and they did it with aplomb. Highly recommend.
Reward & Performance Manager, Lambert Smith Hampton
"Worked closely with the Better Technology team on a number of occasions, I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them. They provide a consistently high level of service."
Senior Category Manager, Asahi UK
"A great company to work with - they grasp concepts quickly, execute to a very high level, and provide great communication throughout the process."
Director, Prosus Consulting
" Designed a database for a energy supplier client of mine to support the migration of a large customer base... support was excellent and Lee and his team were great."
There are two elements to our pricing structure: a fixed-price initial development cost, and an on-going monthly fee for support, maintenance, updates and hosting.
Having been in the industry for over a decade, our team of Excel developers are confident in our ability to estimate the complexity of a project. This is why we can offer a fixed-price for development, giving you peace-of-mind in the rare case of project overruns.
Typically we offer three different tiers of our SLA, which provide varying levels of response time, backup retention, email/phone support and dev credits for additional tweaks/changes.
The beauty of bespoke software is that we can build exactly what you want, the way you want it. However, we know that sometimes it's hard to know what you want until you can see it in front of you.
To help mitigate these unexpected changes which are an inevitable part of the software development lifecycle, we offer dev credits that are included in the monthly fee. These entitle you to a certain number of development hours per month that can be used to implement tweaks, changes, or additional features.
Dev credits can be accumulated over the course of the year and then used to significantly discount new projects, if desired. This helps reduce friction when developing new software, as approving new features and consuming credits is as simple as clicking a button on our customer portal.
With the introduction of GDPR legislation, the focus on data protection and security is greater than ever, and we take this extremely seriously. We are a Cyber Essentials certified organisation, registered with the ICO (ZA519853).
We host with Microsoft Azure in their ISO 27001 and ISO 27018 certified UK data centres, which also meet PCI DSS and SOC 2 standards. This ensures that your data is managed according to the highest standards of security and privacy, fully compliant with GDPR and industry best practices.
You can read our entire Data Security Policy here to learn more about how your data is securely stored, retained and removed when necessary. It also outlines the various cybersecurity countermeasures we have in place to deter and mitigate internal and external threats, both accidental and malicious.
Absolutely. Our consultants are not only Excel developers, but are also experienced at analysing business processes and identifying areas that can benefit from the clever application of technology.
Once this analysis is ready, they can work with you to help create your specification, which you are free to take to other software developers if you so wish.
Of course. By default, we offer to host your web application on our Azure platform, however we are more than happy to provide you or your IT provider with the published application files and database, in order for you to host internally on a compatible platform.
We are happy to assist you and your team to perform this migration, if required, at our hourly consulting rate.
We use the Microsoft stack, which includes Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, SQL Server, ASP.NET WebForms, and Blazor.
Each technology has a specific use-case and implementation cost, so by working with a wide range of technologies we can optimise the solution for your budget and timescale.
Typically we offer three different tiers of our SLA, which provide varying levels of response time, backup retention, email/phone support and dev credits for additional tweaks/changes.
You will have direct access to our UK-based team of developers, who will intimately know how your application works, in order to get you back up and running as soon as possible.
I'll get back to you shortly!
