Our professional services portfolio includes services specifically designed for Adobe LiveCycle ES, Avoka Form Factory and in specific solution disciplines.

Adobe LiveCycle ES is a powerful platform that provides the underlying frameworks and components to build many types of solutions. However to meet your organization’s specific needs invariably requires either customization or custom application development.

Avoka is a world leader in PDF SmartForms development.

PDF SmartForms are a kind of Rich Internet Application. They use advanced features such as dynamic content, data validation, data lookups, in-form calculations, and easy access to assistance so that users can complete online interactions without intervention from support staff.

We have implemented hundreds of Adobe LiveCycle SmartForms, and have discovered virtually every trick, technique and workaround to make a PDF SmartForm do exactly what you want it to do, and several things you didn't suspect it could do.

All of this knowledge has been encapsulated into a series of objects, code libraries, and best practices that collectively result in state-of-the-art in PDF SmartForms.

We guarantee we will build your form better, faster and cheaper than you could do it yourself.

Case Studies

Avoka's business is all about making you self-reliant, rather than making you rely on us. The fact that all our products are specifically chosen to be easy to use is just part of the picture. We want you to be in control of your own destiny, rather than necessarily relying on us. An engagement with Avoka almost always involves many different projects using our technology, and usually goes through 3 phases:

1. We build it, you watch. This gives you an opportunity to understand the technology from an end-user and philosophical perspective.
2. We train you, then we mentor you while you build it. This allows you to gain a deeper understanding of the capabilities - but having us assisting means you avoid running into roadblocks or down dead-ends.
3. You continue the good work on your own, while we wait in the wings, always ready to provide assistance with that big project or difficult problem.

We understand that you therefore need a reliable support system. Avoka has a team of support staff on stand-by at all time, who will be able to attend to your enquiry immediately. They will give you an honest and realistic representation of turn-around times and outcome.

Sadly, not every vendor has the experience and dedication that Avoka does. Adobe LiveCycle and Flex are deceptively simple products, but it's as easy to make fundamental mistakes with a simple product as with a complicated one. There are several accounts of projects where we have been brought into a project looming on the edge of disaster, and have been able to bring it around to a successful conclusion.

With customers demanding richer web functionality, your development team is constantly looking for ways to improve your online presence. Web 2.0 development tools offers fantastic ways to do this and create a more engaging online experience for your audience.
