Since 1996 Developer AT, based in Vienna, has developed software for various platforms. In 1997 the company was among the first in Austria to develop web-based and database supported applications. ”Today we are a software company focusing on development, IT security consulting and VoIP implementation,” says manager Andreas Dolleschal. “We have 20 years of experience in software development, which makes us experts concerning individual software solutions either for Windows, Linux or Macintosh systems.” For five years now Developer AT has been developing mobile applications for Android, iPhone/iPad and Windows phones. Developer AT does not focus on one certain branch but creates individual solutions for nearly every line of business.“That is something we are rather proud of,”says Andreas

Dolleschal.“We have experience in working for small scale businesses with only two employees but also supply multinational corporations with more than 100 staff members.”Among their customers are the University of Vienna, Zotter Chocolates, various logistics companies and health and wellness providers. IT security is a delicate matter in a world that relies on computer networks – in peoples’ private lives as much as in business environments. Especially in the last three years this has been in focus since the media have reported various hacks, leaks and data abuses. Developer AT consults and trains company members how to deal with these challenges, how to keep data safe. “We for example conduct so called security audits,” explains Dolleschal.
For three years now, Developer AT has had a daughter company in the US called Smargasy Inc. “At its roots Smargasy does the same things as Developer AT, but with a focus on the US market. At the moment the company is preparing to launch a comprehensive VoIP solution that will be brought to the market under the name IP2Speech,” recounts Dolleschal. In short: This is a cloud based software telephone system with functions that conventional hardware based telephone systems cannot offer. And what's best is that customers do not need any extra and potentially expensive hardware or software updates, but only their already existing telephones. www.developer.at www.smargasy.com
