Bring the spreadsheets, inboxes and workarounds into one system.

Mobbit. builds bespoke business software for small businesses: staff dashboards, workflow tools, admin systems and portals, designed around how your business actually runs. And we’ll tell you when an existing product would do the job better.

An example operations screen. Each panel is tagged with where that work used to live.

Where the work lives

The important jobs are often the least organised.

Bookings and customers usually get software first. The jobs around them, the approvals, handovers and checklists, end up wherever there was room.

What it can be

Software for the people inside the business, and outside it.

Some of it is only ever seen by your team. Some of it is for customers, suppliers or partners. Most businesses need a bit of both.

  • Staff dashboards

    Today’s work on one screen: who’s in, what’s due, what needs a decision.

    Used byFront desk, floor staff, managers

  • Workflow and approvals

    Requests that go to the right person, wait for an answer and leave a record.

    Used byManagers and the people asking

  • Admin and back-office systems

    The records, schedules and paperwork that keep the business legal and organised.

    Used byOwners and office staff

  • Operations systems

    Jobs, orders, rotas or stock moving through stages, with nothing lost between them.

    Used byWhoever does the work

  • Customer and partner portals

    A secure place for people outside the business to check progress, upload documents or make changes.

    Used byYour customers, suppliers or partners

  • Multi-site and franchise systems

    One system across every location, with head office seeing the whole picture and each site its own.

    Used byHead office and every site

Customer records are often at the centre of it; see bespoke CRM. If bookings are, start with booking systems.

One workflow, end to end

Built around the people a job passes through.

Most work isn’t done by one person. A good system knows who does each step, tells them when it’s their turn, and keeps the history. Here’s a support request in the franchise example.

  1. Operator

    Raises a request

    From their own portal, instead of an email.

  2. Head office

    Assigns it

    The support desk routes it to the right field manager.

  3. Field manager

    Visits and updates

    Notes and next steps added from a phone, on site.

  4. Operator

    Sees it resolved

    No chasing; the portal shows every update.

  5. Head office

    Keeps the history

    The request stays on the operator’s record for next time.

In the work

Systems, not just screens.

Every example project has an operational side the public never sees. They’re representative builds rather than client case studies.

Is it the right answer?

Custom software isn’t always the answer.

It costs more up front than a subscription, and it’s only worth it when it fits a real, recurring problem. Four questions we’ll ask with you.

Sometimes the best software is a product you already pay for, set up properly.
  1. 1

    Does a good product already do this?

    Then use it. We’d rather help you set it up or connect it to what you have than build a copy.

  2. 2

    Is the process settled?

    Software makes a process stick. If it changes every month, it’s worth settling first.

  3. 3

    Does it happen often enough?

    A job done twice a year rarely justifies a build. One done fifty times a day might.

  4. 4

    What is the workaround really costing?

    Count the hours, mistakes and missed follow-ups. If it’s not much, a spreadsheet is fine.

If it is

  1. Then 1

    Start with one workflow

    The one that costs the most time or causes the most mistakes today.

  2. Then 2

    Connect what’s around it

    Customer records, bookings or the tools you already pay for.

  3. Then 3

    Extend it when it earns its keep

    Add the next piece once the first is part of the day.

How we work

How a software project runs.

The same six stages as everything we build. We map the workflow as it really happens, workarounds included, and show you how it will work before we build it. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.

  1. Stage 1

    Talk

    We start with your business, not technology. What do you do, how do customers find you, and what’s frustrating right now?

  2. Stage 2

    Map

    Together we map how customers, bookings, staff and admin flow today — including the workarounds nobody likes to admit to.

  3. Stage 3

    Design

    We design the website and the system behind it around that map, so you can see exactly how it will work before we build it.

  4. Stage 4

    Build

    We build in clear stages. You’ll see real progress along the way, not just a big reveal at the end.

  5. Stage 5

    Test

    We test with real-world scenarios — the busy Saturday, the last-minute change, the customer who books on their phone in a queue.

  6. Stage 6

    Launch

    We launch, make sure you and your team are comfortable, and stay around for support and improvements.

Questions

Business software: what people ask.

Can it work with the tools we already use?

Often, yes. Accounting, payments, calendars and email tools usually offer ways to connect. We’ll look at what you use and recommend what to join up and what to leave alone.

Do we have to replace everything at once?

No, and we’d usually advise against it. Starting with one workflow keeps the cost and the risk small, and the next piece is built to fit with it.

Who can see what?

Permissions are part of the design. Staff, managers, sites and anyone outside the business each see what their role needs, and only that.

What happens when our process changes?

Tell us. Changes are scoped and quoted before they’re made, so the software keeps up with the business rather than holding it back.

How much does bespoke business software cost?

It depends on the workflow and how much it connects to. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts, and we’ll say so if an existing product would be the better buy.

Tell us what’s held together by hand.

The spreadsheet everyone’s scared to touch, the inbox that runs a process, the job only one person knows how to do. We’ll come back with honest thoughts on what would help, even if the answer isn’t software.
