About us

We're a team of developers, designers, testers, and Project Managers bringing digital solutions and support to our clients worldwide. With more than 28 years of experience, we ensure that our clients get high-quality solutions at a competitive cost.

1902 Software is a Danish-managed software development agency based in the Philippines. For more than 28 years, we have been working with companies, big and small, on their design, development, and support needs for ecommerce, websites, mobile apps, and custom software.

As a software outsourcing company, we offer our clients the best of both worlds: high-quality solutions at a competitive cost. Our professional approach and top-notch client service, combined with some of the best talents in the Philippines, have earned us a 98% client satisfaction rating over the years.

1902 Software, a Danish software company, started out with AutoLISP (programming for AutoCAD) and Visual Basic development in 1998. Over time, we transitioned to web development in response to changing trends and consumer demands in IT.

We started offering Classic ASP development in 1999, .NET development in 2003, then PHP development in 2007. In the past decade, we also built expertise in content management systems like WordPress (2010) and Umbraco (2013). We added ecommerce platforms too, including Magento (2009), WordPress with WooCommerce, and various Umbraco ecommerce packages.

In 2012, we established our Mobile App department, offering native development first for iOS and Windows, then for Android in 2013. We then started cross-platform mobile app development through Xamarin in 2015.

Today, we remain a technology partner for companies around the globe, especially in Denmark, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Norway, England, and of course Asia.

We design, develop, improve, and support:

• Ecommerce solutions (Magento, WooCommerce, Shopify, Umbraco ecommerce)
• Websites (WordPress and Umbraco)
• Custom software and business systems (.NET, ReactJS, and various PHP frameworks, such as Laravel, Slim, CodeIgniter, etc.)
• Mobile applications (native iOS and Android, React Native, .NET MAUI)
• AI applications and agentic AI solutions
• Design, testing and consulting services

We're also the makers of WriteText.ai, an AI-powered product content solution for ecommerce.

We offer two complementary ways of working together.

Continuous Monthly Development keeps your software and systems moving forward: you simply send your tasks whenever they arise, and we prioritize the work together. Care and Care Plus run at one fixed monthly price with project management and plan meetings included and nothing billed on top; Care Ultimate gives you a fixed price for every task or group of tasks, approved by you before work begins.

Fixed Price Projects are for larger, well-defined initiatives, one defined project, one agreed price. We define the scope together, agree on the deliverables and calculate the price before development begins. Large projects begin with Project Scoping, which defines exactly what will be developed, including the price.

Many clients use both.

Our developers, designers, testers, and project managers use modern AI-assisted tools for planning, design, development, and testing. This results in higher quality and faster delivery. Every solution is still thoroughly reviewed, tested, and verified by experienced software developers and testers before delivery.

We're located in the Filinvest business district in south Metro Manila, Philippines. Our workspace is a hub of creativity and collaboration, with continuous in-house skills training and knowledge-sharing sessions. We take every project seriously, but also know how to have fun with activities like after-office workout sessions, team buildings, and parties and challenges throughout the year.

If you want to visit us and get to know our team in person, we'd love to welcome you. We often have clients visit either to 'meet and greet' with the team or to start a new project with us.

Most of our business comes from clients we've worked with for years. Many started with a single project or a handful of support tasks and have stayed with us ever since, across new platforms, redesigns, upgrades and entirely new ventures.

That's not an accident. It's the direct result of our mission.

To do repeat business with our clients year in and year out.

We achieve our mission by:

• Retaining our employees for a long time. We can only succeed if we build a harmonious company with dedicated employees, ultimately benefiting clients, company, and employees alike.
• Staying on top of new developments within our business area.
• Refining our products and adding value to them. We don't want to be "just another third world exporter of raw materials."
• Improving the image of products made in the Philippines by making a cost-effective quality product.
• Training our employees to give 100% attention to consistency and detail. Embracing globalization as a once in a lifetime opportunity, and not an adversary.
