Software that runs your business quietly.
Tranqsoft designs and builds the systems small and mid-sized businesses depend on: quoting, scheduling, invoicing, inventory and reporting. Then we keep them running. Senior systems designers based in Alberta, who speak your language.
Most businesses run on more workarounds than software.
Orders in one spreadsheet, invoices in another, customer details in someone's inbox. Every gap between them is time your staff spend copying numbers instead of doing the work, and every copy is a chance for the numbers to disagree.
Off-the-shelf products rarely fit how a business actually runs, so people build workarounds. The workarounds are the real cost. We replace them with one system, built around your process, with your data in one place.
Four ways we help
Pick the one that fits, or tell us what is broken and we will tell you which it is.
Custom business software
The system your business needs, built from scratch around the way you already work.
Learn moreRebuilds and rescues
For software that mostly works, or that nobody can maintain any more. We take stock, rebuild it properly and hand you the keys.
Learn moreAutomation
End the double entry. We connect the tools you already pay for so information moves on its own and mistakes get caught early.
Learn moreHosting and support
Your software runs on infrastructure we operate and monitor. Backups, updates and security are included.

Tell us what you need
Fill in the project form. The more you tell us about how the work runs today, the more useful our first reply will be.
We talk it through
A call or a visit, whichever suits. We ask questions and tell you honestly whether custom software is the right answer. Sometimes it is not, and we will say so.
A written plan
A short document covering what we will build, what it costs and how long it takes. You know the scope before any work starts.
Build, launch, then stay
You see working software every couple of weeks. After launch we host it, monitor it and support it.
Boring, in the best possible way.
We build on mature, well-understood technology. Your software works the same in year five as it did in week one, and any competent developer can pick it up.
The source code and the data are yours. If you ever want to move to another provider, both come with you, documented.
You get plain answers from the people who built your system, in terms that make sense for your business. Every request gets a ticket and is tracked until it is resolved. We are in Alberta, on your time zone.
Decades of combined experience with business systems: writing the software, integrating the accounting, phone and point-of-sale products a business already runs on, and supporting all of it in production, from the front desk to the server room.
Businesses that keep Southern Alberta working
We work best with owner-operated companies of roughly five to fifty people, where the owner still knows how every job gets done and is tired of the spreadsheets.

Two products we run ourselves, on the same stack and with the same support we offer clients.

A modern bulletin board system: an event-driven terminal core, networked messaging over the classic FidoNet-style protocols, and door games. For the people who still run and use BBSes, and the ones who want to start.
