Maintenance

Maintenance for software you already have, from $20/month.

Keep an existing website, app, or tool secure, updated, and working. We assess it first, then tell you exactly what we can support before you commit.

Typically supported

  • Websites and web applications in Go, Node.js, Python, or PHP, on frameworks such as React, Next.js, Vue, Laravel, or Django
  • Content management systems such as WordPress and Drupal
  • Online stores on WooCommerce, Magento, or custom code
  • Mobile apps built natively or with React Native or Flutter
  • Desktop apps built with Electron, .NET, or similar mainstream toolkits

Other technologies may be supported after assessment. If we cannot maintain your software well, we will say so.

What we need to accept it

  • You can give us access to the source code and deployment
  • The runtime and framework versions are still supported, or can be upgraded as agreed
  • You have the right to have the software modified
  • Credentials are shared through a secure channel, never in comments or email

Assessment

How maintenance starts

Any additional charge is shown and accepted by you before work begins.

  1. 1

    Tell us about your software

    Share the URL, technology, and what you need help with.

  2. 2

    Assessment

    We check compatibility, code condition, hosting, and the access we will need.

  3. 3

    Supported scope

    We publish what we will support, the allowance, exclusions, and price.

  4. 4

    You accept

    Nothing starts, and nothing is charged, until you accept the scope.

  5. 5

    Subscription starts

    Covered requests become available right away.

Boundaries

Maintenance keeps software working. New development is separate.

The $20/month entry price covers a defined allowance for a small application. It does not mean unrestricted work on any application.

Covered by maintenance

  • Security patches and dependency updates
  • Fixes for defects in existing functionality
  • Small content and configuration changes
  • Monitoring, backups, and uptime checks where we host it

New development

  • New features or new screens
  • Redesigns and rewrites
  • Migrations to a new platform or host (quoted separately)
  • Problems caused by third-party services outside our control

Need ongoing new features? A full software plan includes a development allowance.

Hosting
Included only when stated in your scope

If your software stays with your current host, hosting costs remain with that provider. If you move hosting to us, the hosting profile and price are part of the scope you accept.

Have software that needs looking after?

Tell us what it is and what it needs. We will assess it and publish a supported scope before you commit.
