Built on Microsoft, built to last

Serious business software, on a foundation you can maintain for years.

.NET is Microsoft's platform for building software, usually in C#, and it powers a huge share of the secure, high-load business systems that companies lean on every single day. It is one of the foundations we work in across the wider technology stack, and it is especially well-suited to custom enterprise software and to the bespoke software development work Avaib does most.

The trouble is what happens over time. Plenty of businesses are running an older .NET Framework app that quietly does something important, but it is out of support, hard to change, and the people who built it have moved on. Touching it feels risky, so it gets left, and the security and hosting risks quietly build up until the day something has to change.

That is exactly where Avaib fits. We build new .NET software properly, and we modernise ageing .NET apps in slices while they keep running, so you get a current, supported codebase you own, without a business-stopping rewrite and without junior developers learning on your budget. If you would rather extend your own team, you can also hire .NET developers from us instead.

The legacy .NET trap

Why an old .NET app quietly becomes a liability.

This is the most common .NET situation we are called in to fix. It is nobody's fault; it is just how an ageing codebase drifts, and everything about how we work is built to get you out of it safely.

01

It works, so nobody touches it

A .NET Framework app quietly runs the business. It is out of support, hard to change and the people who built it have moved on, so every change feels risky and gets deferred.

02

The risk builds up out of sight

Old frameworks stop getting security patches, get slower to host, and drift further from modern .NET. The danger is not visible at launch; it shows up as a breach, an outage, or a change you suddenly cannot make.

03

A big-bang rewrite feels like the only option

By the time it has to change, the codebase looks like an all-or-nothing rebuild, which is expensive, slow and risky, so it keeps getting put off and the problem compounds.

An out-of-support .NET Framework app rarely fails at launch. The cost shows up later, in a security breach, an outage, or the change you suddenly cannot make, which is exactly why it pays to modernise before you are forced to.

Modernising without the big bang

From legacy .NET Framework to modern .NET, in provable steps.

A big-bang rewrite is expensive and risky, so we do not do one. We move your app onto current .NET slice by slice, keeping it running the whole way through.

Step 1

Assess and map the risk

We audit the existing .NET application, its dependencies and where it is exposed, then give you a plain-language picture of what is safe, what is urgent, and what modernising it actually involves.

Step 2

Move to modern .NET in slices

Rather than a risky big-bang rewrite, we migrate module by module onto modern .NET, keeping the app running the whole time so the business never stops while the foundation is replaced underneath it.

Step 3

Cut the Windows-only ties

We untangle the System.Web, IIS and Windows-service dependencies that lock the app to old infrastructure, so it can run cross-platform and in the cloud, not just on a legacy server.

Step 4

Harden, test and hand over

Our QA department tests each slice, we tighten security and performance, and you get the code, the documentation and a modern .NET codebase your team can hire for and extend.

The concerns, answered

What worries people about a .NET project, and how we handle it.

These are the real concerns we hear before a .NET build or migration starts. Here is exactly how Avaib takes each one off the table.

"We are stuck on old .NET Framework and scared to touch it."
We modernise in slices with the app running the whole time, so there is no big-bang rewrite and no business-stopping outage. You see a working, tested system after every step, not a year of silence and a risky switch at the end.
"They will bill senior rates and put juniors on our code."
Your .NET project is staffed by senior C# and ASP.NET specialists who work in the stack every day. You are never funding someone learning the framework on your budget, and one accountable team owns the work start to finish.
"We will be locked into the vendor or into Azure."
You own the code, the data and the documentation on standard, well-supported .NET, so any capable team can run it. We build for the cloud you choose and avoid tying you to services you cannot leave.
"An outsourced team will not understand our enterprise setup."
We have built secure, regulated, high-load .NET systems since 2004. We work with your existing databases, authentication and infrastructure, and design to the security and compliance bar your environment actually requires.
"Modernising will cost a fortune and overrun."
We scope the work clearly up front and give you a fixed, plain-language quote. Senior engineers work at a cost-effective rate of around USD 25 per hour, and AI-accelerated delivery moves through the routine work faster, so you get there sooner.
"After launch, the team will vanish."
Every build is backed by a 30-day warranty and optional ongoing support, with urgent requests picked up quickly. The relationship continues because it keeps delivering value, not because you are trapped in it.

Proven .NET work

.NET systems we have built and modernised.

Real ASP.NET and C# projects delivered for insurance, membership, renewable energy, construction and scheduling businesses, each still doing its job today.

ASP.NET · SQL Server · Insurance

A warranty portal that put an insurer back in control

Jewelers Mutual was tracking jewelry warranty plans across scattered records with no single view. We built a custom ASP.NET and SQL Server portal with clear role-based access, so every sales record and warranty plan is tracked end to end, with accountability, data security and compliance built in.

ASP.NET · C# · CMS at scale

ClubRunner's CMS, rebuilt for 5,000+ clubs worldwide

ClubRunner's legacy content system was holding back a platform used by more than 5,000 clubs. We re-architected it on modern Microsoft technologies with reusable, customisable themes and supported the move to Azure, retiring the technical debt and giving members faster, better-looking club websites.

ASP.NET · C#.NET · SQL Server

The ERP & CRM behind Grasshopper Energy's solar growth

Grasshopper Energy's operations were siloed and project visibility was thin. We built GEOS, a custom ASP.NET ERP and CRM with a standout tool that calculates rooftop solar capacity from map data, unifying sales, operations and asset tracking behind a project pipeline that grew past $6 billion.

Classic ASP → ASP.NET · React · Azure

Scaling QuickContractors into a national marketplace

QuickContractors had outgrown its Classic ASP roots just as partnerships with Home Depot and Lowe's took off. We migrated it to ASP.NET and React on Azure, added contractor dashboards, mapping and dispatch automation, and scaled the team from one developer to 50+, a run that ended in acquisition by one of Canada's largest corporations.

ASP.NET · SQL Server · Scheduling

Real-time booking that ended the waiting game

Premiere Suite's customers were stuck in phone tag and missed calls just to book a service. We built an ASP.NET and SQL Server scheduling system that lets them book straight into a provider's calendar in real time, removing the coordination delays and lifting booking success rates.

Common questions

.NET development, answered.

What is .NET development?

.NET development is the building of software on Microsoft's .NET platform, most often using the C# language with frameworks like ASP.NET Core for web applications and APIs, Blazor for interactive interfaces, and .NET MAUI for cross-platform desktop and mobile apps. Modern .NET is open-source and runs on Windows, Linux and macOS, and it is widely used for secure, high-performance business systems, enterprise web apps and cloud services on Azure.

A .NET development company designs, builds, tests and maintains this software for you, and often modernises older .NET Framework applications onto current .NET. Avaib has worked on the Microsoft stack since 2004, across more than 600 projects, so we can build new .NET software or bring an ageing one up to date.

Can you migrate our old .NET Framework application to modern .NET?

Yes, and we do it without a risky big-bang rewrite. We start by auditing the existing app, its dependencies and where it is exposed, then migrate it onto modern .NET module by module, keeping it running the whole time so the business never stops.

Along the way we untangle the Windows-only ties, such as System.Web, IIS and Windows-service dependencies, that lock old apps to legacy infrastructure, so the modernised software can run cross-platform and in the cloud. You end up with a maintainable, supported codebase you own, not another version you are afraid to touch.

How much does .NET development cost?

It depends on the scope, since a focused internal tool is very different from a system that runs your whole operation or a full legacy migration. That is why we scope the work clearly up front and give you a fixed, plain-language quote before any development starts, so there are no open-ended surprises.

Our senior .NET engineers work at a cost-effective rate of around USD 25 per hour, the same capability Australian, US, Canadian and Middle-East firms charge a fortune for, and AI-accelerated delivery helps get you there faster. After a short conversation we will send you a free, no-obligation written estimate with a clear scope.

Do you build on Azure, and will we be locked into it?

We build cloud-native .NET on Azure using App Service, Functions, containers and managed SQL, and we can move an existing app onto it. Azure and .NET fit together well, so if your world is already Microsoft, we slot straight in.

You will not be locked in, though. We favour standard, portable .NET and keep cloud-specific pieces cleanly separated, so your software can move to another cloud or run on your own servers if you choose. You own the code and the infrastructure decisions, not us.

Is .NET a good choice for a secure, enterprise-grade system?

.NET is one of the most trusted foundations for secure, high-load business software, which is why it is common in finance, healthcare, government and other regulated sectors. It has mature security tooling, strong performance and long-term support from Microsoft.

We have built exactly this kind of system since 2004, designing to the security and compliance bar your environment requires, working with your existing authentication and infrastructure, and testing every slice through our dedicated QA department.

Do you provide dedicated .NET developers or a fixed-price build?

Both. If your project is clearly defined, we scope it and deliver it for a fixed price. If you need ongoing capacity, we provide a dedicated team of senior .NET specialists who work as an extension of yours and scale up or down as your priorities change.

For an ageing application, we also offer a legacy modernisation engagement that migrates it onto modern .NET in slices, sized to your risk and budget. Whichever model fits, the work is done by senior specialists under one accountable team.

How long does a .NET project take?

It depends on the scope, so we do not quote a fixed timeframe until we understand what you need. A focused tool or a first slice of a migration lands quickly; a large enterprise system is planned in stages so you see working software early rather than waiting until the end.

Because we build and migrate in provable slices, and use AI-accelerated delivery to move through the routine work faster, you get value sooner and can see progress the whole way through rather than at a single risky launch.
