Terrace was started in 1992 by Todd P. Ziesing to create a high quality, independent software development organization. When we opened our doors, we committed the organization to a single goal:
Custom software is chosen by business only when off the shelf software won't meet an organization's requirements to increase ongoing ROI. Improved ROI comes about by 1) reductions in operating costs and 2) increases in revenues. Custom software can help reduce costs for unique operational requirements including proprietary processes and large scale applications. Custom software can increase revenues by delivering a unique customer experience which builds loyalty and creates a compelling electronic experience.
Several significant technology architectures have emerged since our founding. These include:
- Personal computer networks
- Graphical user interfaces
- Client / server computing
- Internet applications
- Business intelligence / data warehousing
- Web services
- Service oriented architecture
- Rich internet architecture
- Cloud computing.
Terrace has been at the forefront of each of these emerging architectures to help our customers apply new technology to make their businesses better.
Over the years we have developed both general application frameworks and vertical software products to complement our custom software development practice. These frameworks and products help us address some of the requirements we face when we approach a new custom software project. We utilize our software frameworks and products to deliver customized solutions rapidly for some specialty applications.
The best custom software solution for a client is delivered through a blend of advanced technology, proven process, domain knowledge, and superior staff. Terrace remains unsurpassed across industries because we are driven to deliver innovation, quality, and integrity independently for every engagement.
