After five years of continued product development and bespoke software engineering Codestuff has achieved Microsoft Gold Certified Partner status. As an independent software vendor we need access to the best tools around. Microsoft's .Net and related technologies have consistently given us the edge when it comes to developing award-winning software.

Access to Microsoft's technical libraries, and previews of their next generation technologies have made sure that we produce bespoke software that yields exceptional results, delivers solutions beyond expectations, and ahead of contemporary product design. This ensures our partners sell software today that is still sellable in the longer term, protecting their investments and enhancing their software brand.

The same Microsoft technologies lie at the heart of our Quorum range of surveillance products. Quorum uses various Microsoft technologies to deliver powerful and flexible results.

Here's a brief list of what to expect:

• Video acceleration using the latest Direct-X 3D texture capabilities.
• Silverlight gives a rich and full remote control experience of Quorum products via web-browsers.
• SQL Express provides reliable backend storage for auditing and recording databases.
• Codestuff technology from the network protocol to the rendered image. No manufacturer's SDK or library is used to render video. This gives us consistently high quality results and excellent performance.

Coming soon

• Windows Presentation Foundation based GUIs deliver the best performance from Direct-X 10 and Windows Vista.

Codestuff seeks out engineers that have established backgrounds in IP video and audio encoding and decoding and all are fully qualified professionals. In turn this has brought in new thinking and new approaches to application development and product design. This intelligent design is something you can expect to be built-in to all Codestuff engineered software.

So what is next after Gold? Easy! We'll keep enriching our application development knowledge using the relationship Gold Partner status gives us.

Purchasing products in the Quorum range guarantees you will get software that is using contemporary and novel approaches and that will search out every bit of technology inside your PC to give you highly satisfactory results whether you are displaying, transcoding, analysing or recording video, or doing all of them at once.

For bespoke development, working with us guarantees that your next software product will be everything you want it to be and fit for the immediate future too.
