Why IdeaBlade
You have a lot of questions. We have the answers.
Is your technology stack out of touch with today's demands? Can it support the deployment options you need, or are you losing out to the competition? Does your team have the resources and skills required to design and develop the application that will put your company back on track?
Our team of senior software architects, developers, and project managers has been building custom business applications for over two decades — proven in sustained, real-world scenarios — powering killer apps for companies just like yours.
Data-rich business applications are our specialty
- Business performance management (BPM)
- Customer relationship management (CRM)
- Enterprise resource planning (ERP)
- Point of sale (POS)
Whether you need to deploy to the desktop or the web, go mobile or multi-client — we're ready to help.
Modernization
Take your legacy applications forward
Aging applications are hard to deploy, secure, and staff, and a ground-up rewrite is slow, costly, and risky. We build from the application you already have.
Legacy applications, moved to the modern web
We migrate .NET Framework, Silverlight, and desktop applications to a modern web stack, working from your existing code so proven business logic carries forward.

From the server to the screen
Enterprise software: your killer app
Games and social apps get all the attention, but real work gets done with enterprise software. Building your killer app, a data-rich business application, is a bit more complex than plugging in off-the-shelf physics engines or executing a few API hooks.
End-to-end development
Line-of-business applications need to query and save data, model data as objects with business logic, and present those objects to the end user. We leverage established patterns and practices, and build entire applications — from the server to the screen. Data. Models. Views. Everything.
The skills you needed yesterday
We design, build, and deploy data access, object-relational mapping, entity models, business logic, persistence, MVVM presentation, and view composition into applications every day — in .NET, JavaScript/TypeScript and XAML.
JumpStart
Jump start your project with a two- to three-week session that includes best-practices development and real-world solutions. At the end of the session, your team will have an application prototype — a working model that will provide a rock-solid foundation for future application development.
Rapid application development
Let us partner with your team, adapting to your unique dynamics and project needs, so you can deliver an end-to-end solution ahead of schedule and under budget. We'll develop the application, advise your team, and support you every step of the way.
