Why choose Altima?

Interactive design is an extremely competitive marketplace. In Melbourne alone, businesses have the choice of thousands of web design agencies. Many of these agencies offer websites at bargain basement prices. In conducting your research for an interactive and web designer, you will undoubtedly come across complete website packages for $399, $199, $99 or even for free with the purchase of web hosting!

So how does Altima stand out from the pack, when competition is ruthless and every agency undermines the other on price alone?

Experience is the answer. Altima has been developing websites for more than ten years and it is our core service, not an extension like the businesses that offer web development with printing or hosting.

For the past ten years, we have developed hundreds of online solutions of varying complexities and different organizations. Our portfolio shows the broad range of clients we have; from small retail businesses to multinational corporations. 

Competitive traits

• Client orientation. Altima understands that our continued success is based on how satisfied our clients are with our service. Our core goal is to do all that is possible (and even sometimes, the impossible!) to ensure we provide a solution that helps your business groWWW.

• Customized approach. We don’t offer packaged solutions (i.e. a basic site at $X, a site with all the trimmings at $Y and an e-commerce solution at $Z).  Basically, we refuse to do this, and always will because we know that your business deserves better.  All our websites have been developed on the careful and in depth analysis of our client’s project requirements. 

For clients who aren’t exactly sure what they want, we offer web strategy consulting to help solve your problems in the most effective way.

• Out of the box’ thinking. Altima is specialist at non-standard tasks, and we thrive on working on complex projects.  Our experience is testament to this:

  • Rich Internet Application / website that allows clients to order photo albums online http://eng.myphotobook.com.ua/
  • Online training system for cargo crew
  • Web site of electronic gaming system provider with several online Flash  games http://www.videokingnetwork.com/
  • A supporting project for a Paul McCartney concert.  All fans had the ability to upload their own photos and videos to share their experiences of the concert.
  • Check out our portfolio for a showcase of our best work!

• Delivery models and pricing structures – Our flexibility of delivery modes is a huge economic advantage for our clients.  Altima’s development centre is based in Ukraine, which is a far more cost-efficient solution for both Altima and its clients.  Our project management team is based in Melbourne, which still means that you have personal contact to ensure easy and effective communication.

• Capacity – Most web agencies are very small, often just one person operations.  Altima is made up of 3 development centers and has over 25 employees.  This dynamic and size allows us to have much more capacity than our competitors, as well as providing our clients with less risk – should an employee be out of action for any reason.  

• Quality Assurance – Many developers claim that they follow quality standards, yet few can prove it and back themselves.  Altima provides our clients with a 12 month warranty* for any solution that we develop.  If you have any bugs or issues, we will happily fix it at no charge.

* Conditions apply.

Our Exclusive Approach

Our premium service to clients means that we cannot offer the following:

• Extremely cheap prices.   A custom approach presumes that there is a significant investment of time and efforts on every part of the project.  Therefore, our solutions cannot be considered ‘cheap’.  However, we believe we provide excellent value for money given our flexibility in deliver models.  Most of our solutions will cost clients in the ‘000’s or ’00,000’s depending on the scope of the project.

• Create you web site in couple days.  It goes without saying, that because we provide custom solutions – it is impossible for us to provide you with a complete solution in an extremely quick fashion.  We can however, establish a temporary page for you that gives your target audience an overview of what to expect from your ‘under construction’ website. 

Who does Altima work with?

You are our client and will get the most benefit from working with Altima if you:

• Require a unique, custom solution that helps you business grow. 

• Are ready to listen and learn from us.  As we are the experts, we are well placed to provide invaluable advice to help your project.  Obviously though, since you are the project owner, the final decision is ultimately yours!

• Understand that for in our industry, we charge on time and our primary expense is employee wages.  If we provide you with a fixed price project, we literally have a set amount of hours we can dedicate your project.  If you need something more flexible, we would strongly recommend another choice when selecting a mode of work.
