Welcome to the profile ZiPZAP Computers Limited.
We are software developers based in
Lincoln, United Kingdom and produce bespoke computer programs for a
number of different industries but actually specialise in writing for
the European logistics market.
We write commercial computer software for all versions of Microsoft
Windows (including 2008, 2003, 7, Vista and XP), Linux (all versions),
Mac, Windows Mobile, Windows CE, Windows Phone 7, Android and now the
iPhone.
We were originally established in 1986 as a partnership
and changed to a Limited Company in 2004. We moved to our current
address in October, 2007.
Our current large Windows-based projects use clustered SQL 2008 Enterprise Servers and our Linux projects are MySQL based.
We also program barcode scanners and handheld computers which use the
Windows Mobile, Windows CE, Windows Phone 7 or Android platforms.We make
extensive use of SOAP to transfer data from these to SQL-based Servers.
Most of the software we produce is for parcel, pallet or container movement
companies although we have diversified into writing programs for
warehousing, security access and credit control agencies.
Our customers come from all over the United Kingdom, the Republic of
Ireland and as far as the United Arab Emirates. Some of these are
household names.Customers are our best salesmen. Nearly all our new customers come as a result of a referral from an old one.
Currently we run quad Windows Small Business Servers (2008 & 2003 Premium
Editions) and a variety of desktops with Windows 7, Vista and XP. We
also use dual boot Apple Mac workstations and portables.
Most projects are developed in C#, ASP, ASP.NET, Windev or Clarion Database
Developer. For development purposes have a lot of software at our
disposal (including other programming languages) these include all
current Microsoft main platforms and products. We are a Sage Community
Developer, a Microsoft Partner and have a MSDN Ultimate subscription.
