Montreal is our home base. This is where our team works, where our projects take shape and where we meet most of our clients. The city holds a rare density of manufacturers, distributors, professional services firms, technology startups and research institutions, all facing the same realization: their operations have outgrown the tools that support them.
For more than ten years, Witify has been building custom software and custom ERP systems for these organizations, replacing spreadsheets, legacy systems and fragile integrations with a single platform designed around the way they actually work.
Being based in the city changes how a project runs. We walk your production floor, your warehouse or your offices to observe processes before modelling them. Design workshops happen in person when that speeds up decisions, and over video when that saves you time.
Proximity also means service in French or English, a shared time zone, invoicing in Canadian dollars and data hosted in Canada. For Montreal organizations bound by contractual or regulatory requirements, those are rarely details.
The Montreal economy is too diverse for one off-the-shelf product to fit everyone. A manufacturing SME in the east end, a distributor in the Mile End and a downtown engineering firm run workflows that have almost nothing in common. Ready-made solutions force each of them to bend their processes into a mould designed elsewhere.
A custom software solution reverses that logic. It is built around your business rules, which gives you:
Growth in Montreal creates a recurring problem: every department ends up adopting its own tool. Sales lives in a CRM, production in spreadsheets, finance in accounting software, and nobody has a reliable real-time picture.
A custom ERP brings those pieces into one system. We build modules that cover, among others:
Unlike a conventional implementation, there is no long configuration phase spent squeezing your reality into an existing product’s settings. The system is written for you, module by module, and delivered in usable increments.
Every Montreal engagement follows the same arc, scaled to the size of the project. The goal is simple: you should see working software early, and often.
We map your current processes, the systems in place and the friction your teams live with daily. This step produces a prioritized list of pain points and an estimate of the value recoverable from each one.
Interface mockups, data model and technical architecture are validated with your people before the first line of code. This is the cheapest moment to change your mind, and we use it fully.
We work in short cycles with Laravel, Vue.js, TypeScript and AWS. Each cycle ends with a demonstration of a real feature your users can test.
Deployment happens in a secure cloud environment, with your historical data migrated over. Your teams get training tailored to their role, along with guides and video walkthroughs.
After launch we stay accountable for the system: fixes, monitoring, security updates and development of the next features according to your priorities.
The mandates entrusted to us in the city usually fall into a few families of needs:
Montreal organizations are subject to Law 25 on the protection of personal information, and many also have to satisfy the requirements of their institutional clients. We design accordingly:
Production, inventory, shipping and cost price in one system, connected to your equipment and your accounting.
Building a minimum viable product, then a web application able to carry the load once traction arrives.
Tracking mandates, time, deliverables and profitability per client without stacking up software subscriptions.
Field data collection, reporting, visualization and public-facing tools. We have delivered this kind of platform for organizations such as Polytechnique Montréal and Natural Resources Canada.
Considering a custom ERP, the modernization of an aging system or a first digital platform? Write to us or book a meeting. We are in Montreal, and the first conversation is there to understand your situation, not to sell you something.
