About Us

Sagebit developed Cartabuzz as an example of our philosophy of simple, easy to use software

Sagebit was founded in 2005 with the goal of creating superior software. Our focus has always been tools that are easy to use. To that end we have focused on cross-platform solutions that prioritize simplicity and function. We work in Ruby on Rails. Why? Ruby on Rails is the first cordless drill of software development. It lets us rapidly develop custom solutions, focusing on business needs while leveraging modern architecture conventions. Clients don’t care about database abstraction or templating languages; they want solutions to their business challenges. Rails lets us spend our time focusing on what’s important to the client. Prototypes can be developed in hours, and fully functional, deployable solutions can be delivered in weeks, not months or years. In the last 12 months we have begun to augment our development team with offshore resources. This allows us to bring our simple, flexible approach to clients at a lower cost point and a quicker timeframe. Sagebit is about helping the client suceed. How can we help you?
