There is no point in reinventing the wheel. Say your company wants to outsource an ecommerce website. This has been done so many times before and instead of trying to write the code from scratch in some programming language like PHP, we would go for the most affordable option of using an opensource PHP script like oscommerce, virtuemart, etc.
In case you require some specialized features that are not available in opensource scripts then the next best option would be to use a paid script like Pinnacle Cart, Magento, etc. and customize it. Most of the websites we develop use either opensource or paid PHP codes as the foundation for implementation.
Our clients have outsourced php website development & customization for ecommerce, realestate, classifieds, galleries, blogs, forums, intranets, extranets, dating, photography and social networking websites.
The scope of work for such projects ranges from very simple tasks such as theme implementation to the complex tasks of module, extension, component and plugin development. We have even gone as far as changing the core functionality of some of these opensource and paid PHP applications.
A few names of the opensource and paid PHP applications we have customized in the past are: Joomla, WordPress, WordPress Multi-User (MU), GALLERY, Coppermine, OSCOMMERCE, Magento, Zen Cart, VirtueMart, Link Directory – phpld, PHPbb, VBulletin and IPB
We are actively developing PHP components, modules, plug-ins and extensions for Joomla, OsCommerce and WordPress and are confident that if you outsource work to us, we will be able to customize any PHP MySQL opensource or paid script. Our company has integrated multiple PHP opensource applications together so that they seamlessly function as one.
