Our Software Development Services in Amsterdam
Everything under one roof, so a Amsterdam business does not have to coordinate separate design, development and support vendors.

Custom Software Development
Software designed around how your business actually runs, instead of bending your process to fit an off-the-shelf product.

Enterprise Application Development
Workflow, approval and operations platforms with SSO, role-based access and a complete audit trail.

ERP & CRM Development
Custom ERP and CRM modules, or the missing layer around an existing ERP, integrated so data is entered once.

System Integration & APIs
Connecting ERP, accounting, CRM, payment and government systems so information flows without re-keying.

Legacy Software Modernisation
Moving old desktop or on-premise systems to modern web platforms in stages, without stopping the business.

Software Maintenance & Support
Taking responsibility for existing software: fixes, upgrades, security patches and new features on a predictable plan.
Technologies behind our custom software.
Business software has to be dependable for years, so we favour proven, well-supported technology: TypeScript or Python services, PostgreSQL, message queues for anything that must not be lost, and web front ends that run on any office machine. Integrations with the ERP, accounting and identity systems you already use are designed in from the start, not added later.
For Amsterdam projects we typically host on Google Cloud europe-west4 or Azure West Europe, both in the Netherlands, and integrate with iDEAL; Adyen and Mollie; SEPA; and Bol.com and European marketplaces.
Turning ideas into custom software that work.
A structured, agile process that keeps your software development project on time, on budget and visible at every stage.

Data model, roles, workflows and integrations designed and reviewed with you, with a phased rollout plan so one department goes live first.

Monitoring, fixes, upgrades and new modules on an agreed plan, with documentation kept current so you are never dependent on one person.

Frequently asked questions.
About software development in Amsterdam, and about working with Drema.
Do you have a team in Amsterdam?
We work with Amsterdam clients through one named lead who is your point of contact from kickoff to handover, backed by the same engineering team on every project.
Can custom software work with the systems Amsterdam businesses already run?
That is usually the point of building it. We integrate with the ERP, accounting and CRM you already use rather than replacing them, and connect to local rails such as iDEAL; Adyen and Mollie; and SEPA. We also design for the local rules from day one: The GDPR applies and is enforced by the Dutch data protection authority, the EU AI Act covers AI systems, and payment companies fall under DNB supervision. We sign a data processing agreement and host in the EU.
How long does software development take for a Amsterdam company?
We do not start with a two-year programme. The first department or process is usually live in ten to fourteen weeks, running on real data, and further modules follow on a rolling plan. Integrations and data migration are the parts that most affect timeline, so we assess them in discovery.
Which Amsterdam industries do you build custom software for?
Most often Fintech, E-commerce & D2C, Logistics & Supply Chain and Agriculture, because that is where Amsterdam's economy is concentrated. We are not limited to those sectors — the engineering transfers — but that is where we can bring the most relevant experience to a first conversation.
Which local systems can you integrate with?
Most Amsterdam projects touch iDEAL; Adyen and Mollie; SEPA; and Bol.com and European marketplaces. We integrate with what your customers and staff already use, and we check API access and commercial terms for each before committing to a timeline.
Should we build custom software or buy a product?
Buy where your process is genuinely standard — accounting, payroll, email. Build where the process is a source of competitive advantage or where no product fits without workarounds that cost more than the licence. We will tell you when buying is the better answer, including when it means we do less work.
How do you handle integration with our existing systems?
Through whatever interface the system exposes — API, database replica, file exchange or message queue — with an integration layer that isolates your new system from their quirks. We assess the integration surface during scoping because it is a common source of overrun.
Can you meet our security and compliance requirements?
We build with SSO, role-based access, encryption, audit logging and least-privilege as standard, and we work with your security team's requirements directly. Tell us the framework you are held to and we will design against it.
What about the users who resist the change?
Involving them early is the only approach that works. When people who do the job daily shape the design, adoption stops being enforcement. Phased rollout with parallel running also removes the fear of a hard cutover.
How long does an enterprise project take?
First department live in three to five months is a realistic target for a well-scoped process. We deliberately avoid the pattern where nothing is usable for two years, because requirements drift faster than that.
Who owns the code?
You do, entirely, in your repositories. We also document the system and train your team so continuing without us is a genuine option rather than a theoretical one.
