How much does software development in the Azores cost?

It depends on the project, not the island. Fill in the form and we reply within 24 hours with a fixed price, scope, and timeline.

What are the timelines?

It depends on scope and integrations. A focused first version usually ships in weeks, not months. The timeline is written down before we start.

How do meetings work?

By video call. It is the same format for every island and for the mainland. We do not hold in-person meetings.

Can you integrate with the software we already use?

Yes, when the project needs it. We connect to the invoicing, payments, ERP, or CRM the company already uses, so the data does not live somewhere else.

Does the project stay with the client?

Yes. The software is yours. We document how it works and how to update it, and we can stay on for improvements or hand it to your team.

Software in the Azores

STEP is based in Ponta Delgada and builds custom software, apps, dashboards, and integrations for businesses in São Miguel and on the other islands. Meetings are by video call.

What we deliver

Software for island businesses

STEP — See The Easy Path, Lda is a software company based in Ponta Delgada, in Fajã de Baixo, on the island of São Miguel. It was founded in 2023. From here we design and build custom software, mobile apps, dashboards, and integrations for businesses in the Azores. Meetings are by video call, so we work the same way with companies on every island and on the mainland.

Custom software starts from how the company actually sells, operates, and reports. We build back offices, client portals, and internal tools, with roles and history. When the business already uses invoicing, payments, an ERP, or a CRM, we connect to those systems instead of forcing the team onto new tools.

Mobile apps serve field teams and customers. We have already built the back office and app for FIT, to manage clients, jobs, and technical installations in the Azores. In other software projects, Next Energy has a back office and app for clients, buildings, equipment, maintenance, and energy use, and Allkits and Vitória SC use personalization software with a real-time preview. Scope, price, and timeline are locked before work starts.

We work with companies in São Miguel, Terceira, Pico, Faial, São Jorge, Graciosa, Flores, Corvo, and Santa Maria. Among Azorean websites, STEP built Grupo Martins Mota, Moniz de Sá, Bicicletaria Azores, and Clínica Veterinária do Pópulo in Ponta Delgada. The model is the same: based in Ponta Delgada, meetings by video call, and the project stays with the client.

Custom software
Internal tools around how the company already works: sales, operations, and reporting, in a system built for that flow.
Mobile apps
Apps for a field team or for customers, connected to the same backend. iOS and Android, native or cross-platform when it fits.
Dashboards
One place to see the operation, with roles, history, and a clear interface for the people who run the day.
Integrations and AI
Connections to invoicing, payments, ERP, and CRM. AI when it solves a concrete problem: documents, internal knowledge, or a repeated process.
