Our story

Built in Durban, for businesses that actually need it.

AlphacoreTech was founded in 2023 with a straightforward observation: businesses across KwaZulu-Natal were running critical operations on spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups and paper — not because they didn't want better tools, but because no one was building those tools for them at a price that made sense.

We started with web systems — school portals, residence management platforms, portfolio sites — and quickly added IoT deployments and mobile apps as clients asked for more. Every system we've shipped is still running, still maintained and still improving.

We're a tight team. That means every client speaks directly to the people building their system. No account managers, no handoffs, no gaps in understanding.

What we believe

Three things we don't compromise on.

  • 01

    Honest scoping

    We write down exactly what will be built, what it will cost, and when it will be done — before a single line of code is written. No surprises.

  • 02

    Built to last

    We choose technology that is maintainable five years from now, not whatever is trending. Our clients inherit something they can rely on.

  • 03

    We stay on

    Most agencies disappear after launch. We host, monitor and maintain every system we ship — because that's when the real work begins.

What we build

Four things, done properly.

How we work

A sequence, not a mystery.

  1. 01

    Scope

    We sit down, map how you work now, and write down exactly what the system must do. You get a fixed scope and price before anything is built.

  2. 02

    Build

    We build in short cycles and show you working software every week — not slides. You see progress you can click on, and change course early if you need to.

  3. 03

    Deploy

    We put it live, move your real data in, and train the people who will use it every day. Hardware gets installed and tested on site.

  4. 04

    Maintain

    We host it, back it up, watch it, and make changes as your business changes. This is why our clients from 2023 are still with us.

What a client says

“They built our residence system in eight weeks, moved our data across themselves, and they still answer the phone two years later. That last part is the whole reason we recommend them.”
