Our Approach
The Techontario approach relies both on our experience in developing IT solutions and on the business competences of our specialists.
After a first phase when one of our consultants learns the specifics of your project on your premises, we will define your requirement together in order to determine which solution will be more suitable to your needs. Our consultant will then be capable of turning you towards a market solution by offering a comparative study based on your requirements or a specific development in case there is no solution that covers all of your needs.
Whatever the chosen solution may be, we can offer to develop it (configuration of the chosen solution or development from scratch) in our competence center.
