General Questions

What does maintenance include?

Bug fixes, security updates, performance optimization, compatibility updates, minor enhancements, monitoring, and user support. Everything to keep your software running smoothly.

How much does maintenance cost?

$2,000-$15,000/month depending on complexity and support level. Typically 15-25% of development cost annually—worthwhile to protect your investment.

Can you maintain software you didn't build?

Yes, we regularly take over from other teams. We assess the code, document the system, and get up to speed quickly. Often improve quality as we maintain.

Do you support legacy applications?

Yes—legacy support is a specialty. We maintain .NET Framework, classic ASP, and older systems. We can plan modernization when right, but won't push it unnecessarily.


Support Questions

What's your response time?

Critical issues: 1-4 hours. High priority: 4-8 hours. Normal: 1-2 business days. We offer different SLA options including 24/7 for critical systems.

Can we request enhancements?

Absolutely. Most agreements include hours for minor enhancements. Larger features can be scoped separately. We already know your system, so enhancements are faster.

How do you handle security?

We monitor for vulnerabilities, apply patches promptly, and proactively address security issues. For regulated industries, we help maintain compliance.

What if we want to end the agreement?

We don't lock you in. 30-60 day notice typical. We provide documentation, access, and knowledge transfer. Clients stay because value, not because trapped.
