SunTech SolutionsHow to brief a software project so the estimate means something
Ten things to put on one page before you ask for a quote, and how to read the proposals that come back.
Guides
Plain-language notes from our work: how to brief a project so the estimate means something, whether a static site or a CMS fits, how to decide what to build, what a bilingual site needs, how to prepare for an internal system, and how we keep our free study sites accurate.
Static website or CMS: how a small business should choose
The choice is about who will change the site, how often, and who keeps it safe. Five questions, a comparison, and what we would pick for each kind of site.
Custom software or off-the-shelf: how to decide
Most businesses should buy, not build. Here is how to tell when you are the exception, and what to ask before you commit either way.
What a bilingual English–Chinese website needs to get right
A language toggle is the easy part. These are the things that decide whether Chinese-speaking customers in Canada actually find and trust your site.
Before you build an internal management system: a checklist
Orders, inventory, scheduling, HR: an internal system can put all of it in one place. The projects that go well settle these ten things before anyone writes code.
How we keep our free test-prep sites accurate
A practice question that teaches the wrong answer is worse than no question. These are the rules our driving-test and citizenship-test sites are built on.
