Web applications are Web sites that interact with Web users and allow data to be shared between the user, the organization, and other users. Examples include MySpace, Flickr, YouTube, PhotoBucket, and iStockPhoto: each of these Web sites are not one-way communicators of information about their organizations - in fact, the entire Web site is one large Web application. Panther will help you simply add Web applications to your site, or build an entire Web application Web property for you.

As with any Web effort, Web applications should only be developed if they are consistent with the organization's strategy and the Web marketing plan.

Custom Web Applications

Panther Internet staff have been building Web applications since 1995 and were early adopters of the open-source Web applications language called PHP. Because PHP, and its associated free database called MySQL, are open-source, there is a vast user community that constantly offers value-added additions based on what their own customers need. This means that we can build your applications quickly, get them running in the real world quickly, and at lower cost than is usually possible with other languages.

Our experience means we can build virtually anything you can dream up, or that you have seen online. In many cases it is more cost-effective for us to build your application than it is to buy an existing application and cutsomize it, especially if youre requirements are far outside what the purchased application can do on its own.

Below are some examples of custom Web applications we have built for clients.
