Escaping Excel Hell_

Wirebox have long standing experience working with businesses to improve their data systems. Our team have created custom databases using a range of database engines such as MySQL and Oracle. We can adapt existing databases, extract and migrate data from an old data system to a new one, or design new databases to fit with the applications your business uses.

Databases solve all these problems in ways that are efficient, simple and cost-effective:

They manage data faster and simpler, saving time
They enable you to manage the relations between data, minimising duplication.
They can be implemented and updated using open-source tools, making them more cost-effective
They are more user-friendly and intuitive, reducing the risk of inaccuracies.
They give you control over access, making them safer

What our dear Clients say about our work?

Wirebox have been helping our organisation for the last 3 years. They have worked on redesigning, developing and managing over 7 websites. They have created tools for us to manage thousands of our learners, new applicants and organisations that we work with. We trust them to handle confidential, mission critical data and compute financial information that manages millions of pounds of funds. They are socially aware, project driven and deliver consistently on time and on budget. I know the team to be trustworthy and capable. I can put a project in their hands knowing that they will gather information from my organisation, and then deliver technology solutions quickly with the minimum of disruption.

I have worked with Wirebox for a number of years and their support has always been 100% professional and good value. They are responsive and also quick to answer any queries. They also talk in a language that I understand. Having worked with a number of their team I would not hesitate to recommend them. They are honest, reliable, ethical and a pleasure to work with.
