Dedicated team of experts

All Sigmet software is developed by our own in-house group of leading software engineers. Software testing is performed by our system integration team. They are also responsible for customer training, field installations, and contract negotiations. The software design process brings the two teams together, to ensure that all customer requirements are carefully considered.

Strict software standards

Our programming languages are ANSI C and C++. These are compiled on multiple platforms using strict coding standards and error checking. A Code Management System is used for logging and version tracking. Custom features are not added for individual customers but good ideas are incorporated into the basic IRIS product, and made available to all customers. This ensures that all features are subject to frequent testing, and are kept up-to-date.

Manuals are available on every installed system, on our installation CDROM, and on our website. Technical support email is handled by experts, and we are committed to providing a timely response.

Sigmet is a member of the Hewlett Packard Channel Partner program.
