Build what is unique
Start with 80% already done. Invest in the 20% that makes you different.
Do not spend the first months rebuilding users, customers, products, permissions, emails, quotes, stock, reports and accounting integration. Start with the working foundation. Put the effort into the process your competitors cannot buy off the shelf.
Quote, sell and get paid
Pricing, quotes, approvals, orders, deposits, invoices and payments already form one sales process.
Inventory and operations
Products, purchasing, stock, manufacturing, warehouse work, fulfilment and freight are already there.
MYOB, Xero and integrations
Keep accounts connected and extend the platform to the specialist systems your business relies on.
Skip the expensive beginning
Do not pay someone to rebuild the basics.
A from-scratch project starts with login, security, users, records, permissions, search, email, reporting, hosting, backups and integrations. All necessary. None of it is the reason you commissioned custom software.
Tall Emu starts with those foundations working. Your project gets to the valuable part faster.
Put the budget here instead
- Your unusual quoting or pricing rules
- Your approvals and handovers
- Your industry-specific data
- Your production or delivery process
- Your customer or supplier portal
- Your specialist system connections
Custom where it matters
Shape the platform around the way your business works.
Use standard Tall Emu where standard makes sense. Configure or extend it where your process gives you an advantage.
Industry-specific quoting
Capture the options, calculations, approvals and documents needed to quote your product or service properly.
Pricing and commercial rules
Apply the customer, contract, quantity, margin or channel rules that generic software cannot express cleanly.
Approvals and workflows
Move work to the right person, enforce the important checks and keep the next action visible.
Production and operations
Connect the customer promise to the real work needed to manufacture, prepare, deliver or service it.
Customer and supplier portals
Give outside users the right view and actions without exposing the internal system.
Operational automation
Remove repeated entry, trigger routine work and keep information moving between teams.
Specialist integrations
Connect the systems that are important to your industry or operating model.
Unique data and reporting
Store the information your team actually needs and report on the measures that run the business.
The third option
More flexible than off-the-shelf SaaS. Less risky than building from scratch.
Proven platform→Configure→Extend→Deploy→Support
You get the benefits of custom software, built on a working business platform. No blank screen. No need to become your own software company.
Built to keep running
You are not left holding the codebase.
With a one-off custom build, your business owns the whole problem: hosting, security, backups, upgrades, integrations, bug fixes and the knowledge needed to keep it alive.
Tall Emu continues to run, support and improve the core platform. We stay involved when your custom work needs review or further development. You get a long-term software partner, not a codebase dropped on your desk.
The core platform keeps doing the heavy lifting
- Cloud hosting and backups
- Core product support
- Security and user access
- MYOB and Xero connectivity
- Ongoing Tall Emu product development
- An Australian team that knows the platform
A strong fit
For businesses that have outgrown “nearly good enough”.
Standard SaaS almost fits
The core process works, but the final gap creates spreadsheets, double entry or manual work.
Your process is a real advantage
You do not want software to flatten the way you quote, make, sell or deliver.
Several apps are stitched together
Customer, sales, stock and operations data is split across systems that do not share the full story.
You are considering a custom build
You need more control, but do not want to fund and own an entire software platform from day one.
Common questions
Common questions about building on Tall Emu
Can Tall Emu be customised around our business?
Yes. Tall Emu can be configured and extended around your workflows, rules, data, documents, approvals and specialist integrations. The aim is to use the standard platform wherever it already fits, then build only where your business genuinely needs something different.
Why not build the whole system from scratch?
A from-scratch build makes you pay for the foundations before the developer reaches the process that matters. Tall Emu already has customers, users, permissions, CRM, quoting, orders, inventory, accounting integration, email, phones, webforms and reporting working together.
Is custom development included in the Tall Emu licence?
Custom development is scoped separately. You see the proposed work, cost and outcome before it begins, while the standard Tall Emu platform remains the proven base.
Can we keep using MYOB or Xero?
Yes. Tall Emu is designed to run customer, sales and operational work around MYOB or Xero rather than forcing you to replace the accounting system.
What happens after the custom work is delivered?
Tall Emu continues to host, support and improve the core platform. We remain available to review and update custom work as your process or the platform changes, rather than leaving you to operate an entire software product by yourself.
