ONTHEROCK Software Pragmatic innovation through software

We assist businesses to embrace the growing importance and impact of software and automation. We are a Laravel development company and embrace the full Laravel ecosystem to deliver innovative, pragmatic software solutions.

About Us

ONTHEROCK Software was founded in 2006 with the goal of developing custom software for the financial services industry. We identified a niche in the high volume sales fulfillment space, and got to work building TheSalesFactory, a generic new business switch to address that niche.

The product launched in 2008 and is still in active use today despite the dramatic changes in the technology and sales landscapes. The 10 plus years spent actively integrating products into almost all the major insurance product houses and banks in South Africa, allowed us to build up a substantial tool-set for integration and rapid product development.

We were also early adopters of cloud technologies and the emergence of the API marketplace. All these factors and school fees puts ONTHEROCK software in a very strong position to deliver service, advice and of course, our first love: software.

FINANCIAL DIRECTOR - ZESTLIFE

I cannot recommend Heinz and his team at ONTHEROCK Software more highly. From our initial meeting they started to add value in helping us to shape our thinking about what is possible. Their ability to grasp our needs and translate that into technology is exceptional. They are a true partner rather than a service provider and also somehow manage to make it fun to work with them

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you only develop Laravel applications?

Yes - we are exclusively a Laravel development shop.

Why Laravel?

"Framework hopping" or "framework wars" is extremely counterproductive. We do not advocate that Laravel is the "best" PHP framework - we leave that subjective opinion to the numerous online discussion forums. Instead, we firmly believe that it's the best choice for us, and by settling on a framework and its augmenting ecosystem, we free up energy and focus to solve business problems. Settling on a single framework also ensures that we can easily obtain resources if required, and there is a clear development and training trajectory in growing our own resources.

Why is the technology stack important?

The quick answer is: it usually is not - if you want to 100% outsource a bespoke application, then the technology stack is not important. However, if you intend to at some point take ownership of the application, or include it in your existing IT development environment, then the tech stack is VERY important. For this reason, we advocate clearly communicating what we use to build applications.
