Application Development
At
Fueled Media, we believe in a functional website. For many developers,
the application of this belief ends with standard customer features
and e-commerce. But, online technology is certainly capable of many
more benefits for your business. That is where we come in.
We will work with you to determine ways that your site can increase
your efficiency, decrease overhead and improve your bottom line.
From intranets, extranets, project management software, customer
management software, shipment management and inventory tracking
to custom cell-phone enabled contact databases, our programmers
can take your business to the next level.

Open-Source Customization
There is a large variety of open-source free solutions available
on the net. The numbers grow every day. Unfortunately, open-source
software is not "plug and play" software.
The Problem with Open-Source
- Compatability: Open-source software is usually
built with a certain configuration in mind. Often, it will not
work with other applications without extensive work.
- Support: Since this software is free, there
is often limited support and documentation available. Many times,
the support cost will add up to hefty fees.
- Installation: Installation of most open-source
products leaves many average users frustrated at best.
- Configuration: If you are able to successfully
install the software, configuration to fit your needs usually
requires changes to the actual code.
- Features: Almost all open-source software is
in continual development. Because of this, releases of the software
may have bugs in functionality or in-complete features.
- Warranty: All open-source software is accompanied
by a denial of any warranty, express or implied of its usefulness
for any purpose.
With these problems, you can see that it might appear that open-source
products are not a good solution, but they also have many benefits.
Benefits of Open-Source
- Cost: Open-Source solutions are usually absolutely
free as distributed.
- Features: Because this software is under constant
development by an active community of users, it is often possible
to request a new feature or changes in the product (at no cost).
Try that with a commercial product!
- Updates and Upgrades: The software will remain
free through all updates, and so it continually grows with no
cost to the user.
- Quality and Security: With commercial software,
you are relying on one company to provide the assurance that a
software solution is secure, and is coded with standards in mind.
Open-source software is developed by cooperation of bright people
all over the world. It is continually tested and improved by users
and programmers alike, and any problems are quickly noted and
solved.
- Customization: Because this software is open
source, you can take it as it is or modify it to fit your business.
Several open-source products can even be combined to form a new
more powerful solution. There is no limitation to the customization
that can be applied.
At Fueled Media, our programmers and technicians effectively erase
all of the problems with open-source software, so that your business
realizes the greatest benefit. We have extensive knowledge installing,
configuring and customizing open-source software.
