What is Maintenance & Support?

Software maintenance and support is an ongoing service that keeps applications performant, secure, and up-to-date. It includes 24/7 technical support, proactive monitoring, security patching, performance optimization, bug fixing, and feature enhancements to ensure systems run flawlessly without interruption.

Engineering Targets

Figures below are the benchmarks we design and test against on this type of build. They are targets, not a warranty — what your platform actually achieves depends on your data, scale and integration surface, and we agree the numbers that matter with you before work starts.

Why This Matters

Software decays even when nobody changes it. Dependencies reach end of life, certificates expire, cloud services deprecate APIs, and the engineers who built the system move on. Without a maintenance owner, small issues accumulate until a routine upgrade becomes a rebuild. Planned support keeps that cost predictable and spread across the year.

FEATURES

What You Get

Capabilities

Tiered Support Model

Requests are triaged by severity, with agreed response and resolution targets per tier so a cosmetic defect never competes with an outage.

Proactive Monitoring

Application, infrastructure and error monitoring with alert thresholds tuned to your traffic, so degradation is picked up before users start reporting it.

Security Patching

Dependency scanning, framework upgrades and vulnerability patching run on a scheduled cycle, with urgent fixes handled outside the cycle when severity requires it.

Performance Tuning

Query optimisation, caching, index review and infrastructure right-sizing address slow paths and reduce the hosting bill that the platform has grown into over time.

Continuous Improvement

A share of each monthly allocation goes to small enhancements and technical debt, so the system keeps improving instead of only being kept alive.

Documented Runbooks

Incident procedures, deployment steps and architecture notes are kept current, so support does not depend on one individual remembering how the system behaves.

PROCESS

Our Approach

How We Deliver

01

Takeover Audit

We review code, infrastructure and open defects before accepting support responsibility

02

Instrument

Monitoring, alerting and logging are set up so issues surface with context

03

Operate

Triage, fix and release on an agreed cadence with severity-based response targets

04

Improve

Monthly review of incidents, performance, cost and the backlog of technical debt

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does custom software development take?

A typical MVP takes 8-12 weeks. Full enterprise platforms run 4-6 months. Masarrati uses agile sprints with bi-weekly demos so you see progress from week one and can provide feedback early.

What is the cost of custom software development?

Costs depend on complexity, integrations, and team size. A focused MVP typically starts at $30K-$80K, while enterprise platforms range from $100K-$500K+. Masarrati provides detailed estimates after a free discovery session.

Do you offer fixed-price or time-and-materials contracts?

Both. Fixed-price works well for clearly scoped MVPs. Time-and-materials suits evolving projects where requirements may shift. Masarrati also offers dedicated team models for long-term engagements.

Can you take over an existing codebase or legacy system?

Yes. Masarrati regularly onboards legacy systems, conducts code audits, and executes modernization using a strangler fig approach — upgrading incrementally without downtime or disruption to users.

What technologies does Masarrati use for software development?

Masarrati works with React, Next.js, Node.js, Python, Go, Java, AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, and more. Technology choices are driven by your specific requirements, scalability needs, and team expertise.

How do you ensure code quality and security?

Every project includes automated testing (unit, integration, E2E), code reviews, CI/CD pipelines, static analysis, dependency scanning, and security audits. All projects start with NDA protection.
