About us

Small on purpose. Senior throughout.

CoGlance is a software consultancy organised around domain experience rather than headcount. The people you meet on the first call are the people who build your system, and they have done it before.

Who we are

Over forty years of combined experience, in one room.

We are a dedicated team of engineers and consultants who help businesses solve real problems through disciplined engineering and honest advice. We work from your objectives, to bring the most value and the quickest return on the investment.

Organised by domain, not by department

We run as virtual divisions, each carrying the domain experience and know-how for its practice: web and mobile, integration, data, cloud. You get the people who know your kind of problem, not whoever is free.

Every number traces to something real

We will not tell you we are world-class, cutting-edge or innovative. We will show you a system that has been running for years, and introduce you to the person who built it.

Fair prices, written down

Fixed-price milestones, exclusions stated before the contract, and every change quoted and approved before work starts. Our estimates hold because the scope behind them is specific.

Around the clock, when it matters

Any question, any time, anywhere. Support is not an upsell; it is how we make sure what we built is still working the way it did on the day we handed it over.

What we stand for

Four things we will always do.

Tell you when it is the wrong idea

If a low-code tool, an off-the-shelf product or a well-chosen integration would serve you better than a custom build, we say so, even when the custom build would be the bigger invoice.

Build it so it can be handed over

Documentation, source code, training and a defined support window come with every project. Nothing we build depends on us staying around, although most of our clients ask us to.

Put senior people on the work

Our staff have extensive knowledge and experience, and they stay on the project from scoping to go-live. We do not switch a senior architect for a junior team once the contract is signed.

Answer the phone

Round-the-clock support, a named contact, and a reply within one working day to any enquiry. A proposal that goes unanswered costs more than the work.

Careers

We hire slowly and keep people for years.

If you are an engineer who would rather own a system end to end than pass tickets along a line, we would like to hear from you. There is no application form: send an email with something you have built and why you are proud of it.
