SoftMax Software Solutions

Welcome to our humble web page!

As might be evident from our name, we develop software. More specifically, we develop specialized software, primarily for the aviation industry.

We are big enough to get the job done, and to provide good products, good service and good support, but we are small enough to value each individual client, and to remain flexible and agile enough to accommodate the specific requirements that different clients may have.

Our systems are for businesses that are big enough to require systems to help them with their daily tasks, but not quite so big that they have their own dedicated IT division that can develop their own systems.

The bulk of our clients are in aviation, specifically air charter and flight schools, although we do have a few clients and systems in other industries. The majority of our clients are based in South Africa, but we also have a few clients in neighbouring countries.

We do not focus on developing mainstream products, but rather aim to provide a product that will meet basic needs, and then build on that base to accommodate specific requirements. Clients in the same industry do basically the same thing. but each one does it a bit differently. It is that "bit different" that sets each one apart, defines their character, and often provides their edge. Again, it is that "bit different" that we try to accommodate as far as possible.

We do not promote our products or process any sales on our website, which sounds horribly wrong in today's world where flashy advertising and easy sales are considered essential. But chances are that if you are here, it is because somebody told you about us.

We have been developing software since 2000, and officially registered in 2004. We have never advertised, but have grown by word of mouth and repeat business, and would like to continue on this principle.

We believe that it is important to meet with each new potential client to familiarise ourselves with their requirements before we commit to providing a solution, and before expecting them to commit to one of our solutions. We view each new client and project as the beginning of a long-term commitment and a mutually beneficial relationship.

Our products are typically not based on the latest and greatest technologies, and they don't have impressive interfaces, but they have a solid and proven track record of delivering what each client needs, delivering that functionality reliably, and with the backing of top class support.

We are blessed in having built up a firm client base over the years. We are proud of the fact that people recommend our systems, we enjoy what we do, and we very much value and appreciate each one of our clients. We would love to hear from you and to add you to the family.
