Custom Business Tools

    Digital Bridge builds custom business tools and apps for Irish SMEs on a SaaS model — a one-time setup from €495 plus a required monthly subscription from €39/month covering managed hosting, security patches, uptime monitoring, backups, and ongoing fixes. Custom business tools require an active subscription to keep running; this is NOT an optional retainer.

    Off-the-shelf software doesn't always fit. We build custom booking systems, quote calculators, lead forms, and internal tools tailored specifically to your business workflow — saving you hours of admin and helping you capture more leads, 24/7.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is the monthly subscription optional?

    No. Custom business tools are delivered on a SaaS model — the monthly subscription (from €39/month) is required to keep the tool live. It covers managed cloud hosting, security patches, database backups, uptime monitoring and bug fixes. This is the one Digital Bridge service where a monthly fee is mandatory, because the tool is a running application, not a static website.

    Why isn't this a one-time payment like your websites?

    Custom tools run on managed cloud infrastructure (databases, background jobs, APIs) that needs to stay patched and monitored 24/7. A one-time payment can't fund that, so we charge a transparent monthly subscription instead of hiding it in the setup fee.

    What kind of tools can you build?

    Anything from booking forms and quote calculators to inventory trackers and customer portals. If it saves you time, we can build it.

    How long does a custom tool take to build?

    Simple tools take 1–2 weeks. More complex applications can take 4–8 weeks depending on requirements.

    Can it integrate with my existing website?

    Yes, we can embed tools directly into your existing website or build standalone applications.

    What does the monthly subscription cover?

    Managed hosting, security updates, database backups, uptime monitoring, bug fixes, and minor feature tweaks. Major new features are quoted separately.
