A software design & engineering company that works as an extension of your team.

Epicdev provides custom solutions for every client looking to create web applications, mobile applications and sophisticated software solutions. Whether that is hosted in the cloud or on self-managed servers, we are equipped and experienced in building and maintaining a solution that best fits your requirements.

Our clients range from start-ups launching their first app to engineering firms, energy companies and event organisers running systems their operations depend on. What they have in common is a need for software that works reliably every day, and a partner who understands both the technology and the business behind it.

Case Studies More About Us

A Durban app development company with a global client base

Epicdev has been designing and building software for more than 15 years from our base in Gillitts, Durban, with a second team in Johannesburg. From here we work with clients across South Africa and in 9 other countries, including Eswatini, Mauritius, the United Kingdom, Germany, the United States and Australia. Working with a Durban app development company means you deal directly with the people who build your product, in your time zone. Many of our clients have been with us for five, ten and more years, which says more about how we work than any list of services could.

Mobile app development for iOS and Android

We build reliable, scalable mobile apps for Apple iOS and Android, together with the admin systems, APIs and databases that sit behind them. That is the difference between an app that looks good in a demo and one that runs a business: bookings, payments, notifications, user accounts and reporting all have to work together, securely and at scale. Whether it is a customer-facing app, a tool for your field staff or the companion app for a connected device, we take it from prototype to the App Store and Google Play, and keep it current as operating systems change.

Custom web development and bespoke online solutions

Off-the-shelf software is a good start until your processes stop fitting inside it. Our custom web development work covers web applications, client portals, dashboards and internal systems built around the way your business actually runs, connected to the accounting, CRM and payment platforms you already use, so information is captured once and flows to wherever it is needed. For simpler needs we still offer professional web design and development on WordPress, but most of our work today is bespoke online solutions: software written for one client, owned by that client and designed to grow with them.

Cloud engineering, IoT and support after launch

Every system needs infrastructure that stays up. We design and manage cloud environments on Azure, AWS and Google Cloud, or deploy to your own servers where that makes more sense. For industrial clients we connect sensors, devices and gateways to cloud platforms, turning machine data into live dashboards and alerts. And because software is never really finished, every project can move into ongoing support under a service level agreement, so the team that built your system keeps it secure, up to date and improving.
