About Ideal-Logic

Ideal-Logic was founded in September 2008 with the commitment to create high-quality and affordable custom software applications as a service. Our approach is different. We deliver a custom application to the customer rapidly, then they start working with their app and tell us what they want changed. We repeat this process over a short period of time until the app is refined to be exactly what the customer needs. Using this approach we actually create an application that solves the problem, instead of creating more frustration. This is a great fit for mid-sized businesses to large companies because it eliminates the need for additional resources, such as new employees to manage the application, servers, or the infrastructure to house the equipment.

Our technical credentials include twelve years of experience building and supporting large-scale web-based workflow applications at HP and IBM. On the business side, we have over fifteen years of customer service experience in industry and academia. We are passionate about bringing long-term solutions to any size business or organization, and working with them to be successful now and in the future.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to make high-quality, affordable, useful custom software available to everyone. We believe we can change how people view software by replacing frustrating one-size-fits-all products with a dynamic solution tailored to each business. Rather than becoming dated as time passes, our solutions grow and change with the business as its processes evolve. The result is a stress-free software experience that makes work easier and more enjoyable. This kind of cost-effective solution that people will want to use makes replacing paper processes and manual data entry a truly viable option for organizations of any size, allowing them to save on printing costs, reduce paper use, and work more effectively.
