Yes. We help businesses evaluate use cases, assess readiness, define priorities, and create an implementation roadmap before full development begins.
Software Development
Our focus on custom software development ensures we meet clients' unique needs and goals. Our team’s expertise and commitment to quality set us apart in the industry. We operate from our Perth office, providing local support and personalised service.
Although it is more expensive, custom software is worth the investment. It is built with the best tech stack, and the code will belong to you, like any other asset. Also, because it is designed to meet your business needs, it gives you a competitive advantage and greater flexibility. Off-the-shelf software often cannot effectively address your challenges entirely.
Security is one of our main priorities in every project we conduct. Data protection is critical for building trust and compliance. We use industry-standard practices and technologies to protect your data. Our development process includes rigorous testing and regular updates to address potential vulnerabilities. We also use secure coding practices and robust encryption to safeguard information.
The cost varies significantly depending on complexity and scope. Small projects typically range from $25-50K, medium from $50-100K, and large over $200K. Part of our service is providing a detailed estimate before starting the work. Our custom software development process is designed to deliver high-quality solutions within your budget.
Whether it is our hosting, design and UX, custom software, or web app development services, we offer ongoing, local, and reliable support to keep your software performing optimally at all times. Our support includes regular updates, maintenance, and assistance with any issues that arise post-launch. We are just a call away. We also provide comprehensive maintenance services to keep your software up-to-date and secure.
Web Development
The cost of web development depends on the scope, complexity, and features of the project. Smaller, more straightforward websites typically start at under $15,000, while larger, feature-rich, or highly technical projects can range up to $200,000 or more. For a more accurate estimation of your project, get in touch or call us on (+61) 478 575 587.
Yes, we specialise in bespoke web development services tailored to your business needs. Every solution we build is custom-made and belongs entirely to you - no ‘off-the-shelf’ templates or one-size-fits-all approaches. Our goal here at Codeflux is to create a website solution that aligns perfectly with your business objectives and sets you apart from the competition.
It is tough to estimate, but it is fair to say that typical projects take around 3-6 months. Like the cost, it varies greatly depending on the scope and complexity of the requirements. We follow a structured development process that includes discovery, design, development and testing, and launch.
Keep in mind that, regardless of the technology stack we choose, we focus on leveraging the latest advancements and industry best practices. Our expertise spans a broad range of technologies, including Java, .NET, Python, React, Angular, Node.js, Vue.js, REST API's, GraphQL, TypeScript, Azure, AWS, and the design and development of highly scalable web solutions.
Absolutely. Our website redesign services are focused on one key question: How can we create a better user experience? We first understand your business, goals, audience, and existing challenges. From there, we combine modern design principles, usability, and the latest technologies to create a website that looks great, performs seamlessly, and delivers a more engaging experience for your users.
No, we do not provide SEO and digital marketing services directly. However, our development follows the best practices to be SEO-optimised. Our build will support your digital marketing efforts.
Yes, we have become specialists. APIs are amazing tech products that streamline your business operations. Because we exist to make your life easier, we strive to capitalise on API integration. While doing so, we ensure your website keeps running smoothly.
Yes, we provide ongoing support and maintenance. Our support plans include regular updates, performance monitoring, security checks, and issue resolution.
Website Design & UI/UX
Custom web design offers more flexibility. We can create a website that will help improve your digital marketing strategy, giving you a competitive edge. Templates often cannot match SEO-optimised custom websites.
Costs vary significantly based on project complexity, ranging from $15K for small projects to over $100K for larger ones. We offer a free consultation to help you understand the potential investment and plan for ongoing maintenance. Our goal is always to give you a cost-effective solution.
With Codeflux, your site is secure from common vulnerabilities, and we provide ongoing maintenance to keep it updated. Security is a top priority. We guarantee the implementation of best practices to safeguard your website and user data.
Yes, our web designers team is based in Perth. We are just a call away. We believe our clients deserve local expertise. Always available to meet and discuss your project in person, we are determined to provide a comprehensive service.
If you are considering Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) strategy, Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Advertising, Social Media Marketing, or Google Ads campaign management: We do not provide these services. Our websites will always be optimised for digital marketing, but it is not our area of expertise. That being said, Perth's agency community is tight, and we could recommend a digital marketing agency based in Perth if you asked us.
What we design and code for you is yours forever.
Mobile App Development
Costs range from $10,000 for a simple single-platform app to $250,000+ for a complex enterprise application. Mid-complexity (two platforms, payments, custom backend) runs $30K to $100K over 4 to 7 months. Enterprise with AI or compliance requirements: $100K to $250K+ over 6 to 14 months.
Simple apps take 2 to 4 months. Mid-complexity on two platforms: 4 to 7 months. Enterprise apps: 6 to 14 months. Key factors are requirements clarity at kickoff, approval cycle speed, third-party dependencies, and App Store review time.
Flutter is our default for most new projects, offering near-native performance, excellent custom UI, and a Google-backed ecosystem. React Native suits teams with strong JavaScript or React experience or those extending a web product into mobile. Both cut cost 30 to 50% vs two native builds.
Native means separate Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android) codebases with highest performance, full platform API access, and higher cost. Cross-platform (Flutter or React Native) uses one shared codebase for both platforms, reducing cost and time by 30 to 50% with near-native performance for most use cases.
Six stages: Discovery/Scoping (1 to 2 weeks), UX/UI Design (2 to 4 weeks), Agile Development in 2-week sprints (8 to 20 weeks), QA/Testing (2 to 4 weeks), App Store submission (1 to 2 weeks), and ongoing Maintenance. Each stage ends with a client deliverable and sign-off.
Yes. We sign a mutual NDA before any scoping conversation, on request, at no charge. Your ideas, business logic, and requirements stay fully confidential throughout the engagement.
Yes. Included in our standard process: metadata, screenshots, privacy labels (Apple), Data Safety sections (Google Play), staged rollouts, and App Store review team responses if required.
Monthly retainer or per-project basis: OS updates, bug resolution with defined SLAs, security patches, performance monitoring, and optional iterative feature development. We recommend a minimum 3-month post-launch engagement.
Cloud & Infrastructure Services
Cloud and infrastructure services are the backbone of modern IT. In simple terms, they provide the infrastructure, platforms, data storage, and ease of networking that businesses need to run applications and deliver services. Instead of buying and maintaining physical hardware (on-prem), companies may prefer to use cloud platforms like Azure, AWS, or GCP etc to get flexible and on-demand infrastructure.
At Codeflux, we help enterprises plan, strategize, design, deploy, and manage these cloud environments so they’re reliable, secure, and aligned with business goals.
Moving to the cloud isn’t just about technological adoption; it’s about business agility. Here are a few of the notable benefits businesses have seen after cloud adoption:
- Launch products faster with agile and cloud-native deployments
- Move from CapEx to OpEx by paying only for what they use
- Build resilience with in-built disaster recovery and redundancy
- Ease of access to AI tools, analytics, and automation in one place
- Scale globally and enter new markets without heavy upfront investment
In other words, cloud offers a solution to transition from a cost center into a driver of growth, scalability, and innovation.
One of the biggest concerns about cloud is overspending or identifying the areas where spending is more than needed. We tackle this with a practice called “FinOps” which typically covers monitoring, analyzing, and optimizing spend across all workloads. Our engineers use AI-powered insights to right-size resources, automate scaling, and eliminate waste.
We cover the full cloud journey end-to-end, including:
- Cloud readiness assessments
- Application migration and re-platforming
- Cloud-native enablement (containers, serverless, microservices, APIs)
- Infrastructure automation with DevOps & CI/CD pipelines
- Security, compliance, and governance frameworks
- 24/7 managed cloud services
We go beyond basic migration. Every customer’s needs are different based on their business goals. Codeflux designs and operates cloud environments in a customized way.
Our Core Services include:
- Cloud Advisory
- Cloud Migration & Modernization
- Cloud Managed Services
Our framework keeps the process structured yet flexible:
- Assess & Plan – Map out current workloads and design a migration roadmap
- Migrate & Modernize – Move applications with minimal disruption
- Automate & Optimize – Use CI/CD, DevOps, and AI insights for efficiency
- Evolve Continuously – Keep improving cost, security, and performance
Digital transformation is difficult without cloud adoption. It enables:
- Real-time insights with analytics
- Faster innovation with cloud-native architectures
- Seamless collaboration across locations
- Agility to launch new products quickly
- Stronger resilience for always-on customer experiences"
We modernize IT infra step by step, covering:
- Workload migration
- Virtualization and containerization
- Hybrid and multi-cloud enablement
- Security and compliance readiness
- Monitoring and predictive maintenance
- Backup and disaster recovery strategies
QA & Software Testing
QA and software testing services include test planning, test case design, manual and automated execution, defect tracking, and KPI reporting across the software development lifecycle. They cover functional, performance, security, accessibility, and compatibility layers. SDLC Corp delivers all of these through certified engineers and tool-agnostic frameworks.
QA is the broader discipline of preventing defects through process, standards, and continuous improvement. Software testing is one activity within QA that finds and validates defects. QA owns the framework, while testing executes the checks. Strong programs combine both, treating prevention and detection as a single workflow.
QA and software testing services cost between $25 and $150 per hour depending on engineer location, specialization, and engagement model. Offshore manual testing sits at the lower end, while US-based security or AI testing reaches the higher end. Fixed-scope projects run $5,000 to $250,000 based on coverage breadth.
Outsourced QA reduces hiring time from months to days, removes payroll overhead, and adds discipline that in-house teams often skip under release pressure. Specialized vendors bring tool licenses, certified engineers, and process maturity that an internal team would take two or more years to build. The result is faster releases at lower total cost.
Choose a QA partner on five criteria: ISTQB or equivalent certifications, named tool stack, transparent KPI reporting, references from your industry, and an onboarding timeline under two weeks. Ask for sample dashboards, defect-leakage data, and at least two reference calls. Pricing should be the last filter, not the first.
Offered testing types include functional, regression, performance, load, security, API, mobile, accessibility, usability, compatibility, and AI model testing. Each type uses dedicated tools and engineers trained for that specialty. Coverage scope is defined per project based on application risk, release cadence, and compliance requirements.
A QA team can be onboarded within 48 to 72 hours for staff augmentation or 7 to 10 business days for full managed services. Onboarding includes pod staffing, tool integration, access setup, and first sprint kickoff. ISTQB-trained engineers stay on bench to enable this ramp speed.
Integration with existing CI/CD pipelines is part of standard onboarding. Supported tools include Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, and CircleCI. Quality gates are configured for unit, regression, performance, and security stages, with automated reporting to your existing tracker.
IT Talent Outsourcing
The dedicated-team kind. You get full-time engineers who work inside your team — your backlog, your standups, your leads — and we carry the employment behind them: recruiting, salaries, benefits, equipment, HR and retention. We are not a project shop and we do not put a project manager between you and your engineers. If you have used outsourced software development before and it felt like managing a vendor rather than managing a team, this is the structural difference.
One contract with a AUS company, real employment agreements with every engineer, and an IP assignment chain with no gaps in it. Engineers work on your accounts, in your repositories, under your access controls — we do not hold a copy of your codebase or run your infrastructure. NDAs and confidentiality terms are in place before anyone touches anything, and you can add your own security requirements to the engagement.
You do, from the moment it is created. Because the engineers are our employees rather than subcontractors, the assignment runs from engineer to Full Scale to you without a third party in the middle. That is one of the practical differences between outsourcing to a company that employs its engineers and outsourcing to one that brokers contractors.
Rates start at $40 an hour fully loaded and vary with skill set and seniority. The comparison that matters is not the hourly number but what it includes: ours covers salary, benefits, equipment, office, HR and our margin, with no recruiting fee, no discovery phase, no change orders and no account-management layer. Agencies typically quote a blended rate against a scope, so the number you are comparing moves every time the scope does. Most clients land 50 to 70 percent below the cost of an equivalent hire.
Yes, you can add or drop an engineer with 30 days' notice. There is no multi-year commitment and no termination penalty. Clients tell us that flexibility is the main reason they keep teams for years instead of cutting them at the next budget review.
