Overview

Avoka specializes in solutions based on Adobe's Enterprise products. These products provide the underlying frameworks and components to build many types of solutions; however, they invariably require varying levels of customization and custom application development to allow them to solve your particular problems. Our focus on Adobe enterprise technologies has enabled us to develop the deep skills and hard won experience that are critical to ensuring the success of your project.
Avoka has a track record and corporate culture of 100% customer satisfaction. Anything less is unacceptable.

Application Development

In order to address your organization’s exact requirements, most enterprise solutions require a level of custom application development. Avoka has the skills and experience to do this, and we will partner with you to customize the application to do exactly what you want it to.  Keywords to our approach are: collaboration, accountability, creativity and compliance.

Avoka focuses on best practices for delivering applications to the production environment and maintaining their evolution over their life cycle.

We use a proven methodology to ensure the quality, security and agility of your application. Our project management approach ensures that timelines are met and budget is adhered to.

Partnering with Avoka for your application development offers you a number of advantages:

  1. A faster development
  2. Guaranteed functionality
  3. No burden on your internal resources
  4. A solid foundation for further development

Adobe LiveCycle Forms

Avoka are world leaders in PDF Forms development. We have implemented hundreds of Adobe LiveCycle Forms, 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.

Adobe LiveCycle Component Development (QPACS)

In order to get the most out of your Adobe LiveCycle investment, Avoka has developed a large number of components that will add functionality to the solution. These have all been built directly to satisfy customer needs, can dramatically shorten your workflow development cycles, and make it possible to build better solutions faster. Some of these are already embedded in the LiveCycle solution, others can be downloaded from this website. Our development team is also available for any custom components that you might want built. Contact us to discuss your requirements.

Rich Internet Applications

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. By building websites with Adobe Flex, you will increase your site’s utilisation and usability –resulting in more business.

Avoka are one of Australia’s leading Flex development companies. Partnering with us means that your Rich Internet Application will be up and running quicker, and will guarantee the best use of the latest available technology.

Our experienced developers use best practice approaches such as Cairngorm to ensure a solid architecture foundation and are able to integrate the applications with your existing enterprise information services to create a truly interactive solution.

Process Analysis and Modelling

Knowing your organization well is essential in order to stay ahead of your competitors. If there are any areas that you can increase efficiency by optimising processes, you will want to be aware of these. Avoka has second-to-none experience in analysing your business processes and locating areas for improvement. We will help you to know your organization better by mapping out your current processes and assist you in streamlining these, in order to raise productivity, lower costs and reduce complexity.

Training & Mentoring

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.

Support and Troubleshooting

At Avoka we are dedicated to providing quality support to our customer community. The systems that we have implemented in your organisation play a vital role in your day-to-day operations. 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.
