Web applications, business portals and mobile-friendly apps that automate the way your business actually runs. Attendance, payroll preparation, job tracking, dispatch, compliance and reporting, designed and built by our Sydney team for Australian small businesses.
CUSTOM WEB APPLICATIONS AND BUSINESS PORTALS
Most small businesses run on a patchwork of spreadsheets, paper forms, text messages and off-the-shelf subscriptions that each solve a third of the problem. The owner ends up being the glue that holds it all together.
A custom web application replaces that patchwork with one system designed around your own workflow. Staff record work once, on a phone or tablet, at the moment it happens. The office sees live status instead of chasing people for updates. Your accounting and email tools are connected, so nothing is typed twice.
Uniweb has been building websites for Australian businesses since 2011. We now use the same in-house Sydney team to design and build custom web applications, business portals and workflow automation for small and medium businesses.
If two or more of these sound familiar, custom business software will usually pay for itself in saved admin time.
Every project is scoped to one business. These are the building blocks we combine most often. If you can describe the workflow, we can build the software for it.
Phone clock in and out with GPS and site geofencing, breaks, overtime rules, rosters, leave requests and approvals. No more paper timesheets.
Approved hours turned into pay-ready data with rates, allowances and penalties, exported to Xero, MYOB or your payroll provider.
Staff records, onboarding checklists, licences and tickets with expiry reminders, document storage and role-based access.
Job cards, scheduling, live status, delivery and pickup runs, and proof of delivery with photo and signature.
Quote builders, order pipelines and invoices raised straight from completed work, then synced to your accounting software.
Site diaries, toolbox talks with signatures, inductions, SWMS and incident reports, all with printable records for audits.
Stock levels, production queues, material traceability, supplier orders and low-stock alerts for workshops and factories.
Secure logins where your customers book, approve, pay, download documents or track the progress of their job themselves.
Live owner dashboards and Excel or PDF exports, connected to Xero, MYOB, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, SMS and payment gateways.
The brief was to replace paper-based site records with one phone-based workforce management app, and give the office a live view of every site. It is built for people in gloves and hi-vis: large buttons, almost no typing, and one clear task per screen.
One tap to clock in
Workers see their assigned site and a single button.
Prompted to sign
Attendees are asked to sign the talk on their own phone.
Live signature status
Supervisors see who has signed and who is pending.
Clock out summary
Hours worked, geofence check and a site diary reminder.
Screens show fictional sample names and a fictional project.
This web portal tracks every coil of steel from the day it arrives, through production and quality checks, to the docket it leaves on. It also tracks which customer is holding which rack, and for how long. It is built with Node.js and PostgreSQL and hosted in Sydney.
Reports. What went out by customer and by product for any period.
Rack returns. Who is holding which rack, with signed return receipts.
Screens show fictional sample customers, drivers and order numbers.
Download Our Capabilities Overview (PDF)We choose technology for reliability and long-term maintainability, not novelty. Everything we use is mainstream and well supported, so you are never locked in to us.
Software for Australian employers has to respect Australian obligations. We design for these from the start and confirm the specifics with your accountant or payroll adviser.
Configurable pay rules for ordinary hours, overtime, penalties and allowances, set up with your adviser against the relevant award or agreement.
Output prepared for your STP-enabled payroll software or provider, with superannuation figures calculated for review.
Tax invoices with ABN and GST handled correctly, and a clean sync to Xero or MYOB for BAS.
Digital inductions, toolbox talks, site diaries and incident records with timestamps, signatures and printable PDFs.
Time and wage records stored and retrievable in line with Fair Work record-keeping expectations.
Correct handling of AEST and AEDT, Queensland without daylight saving, and Western Australia.
We build the software. Payroll interpretation, tax and legal compliance remain the responsibility of your accountant, payroll specialist or legal adviser, and we are glad to work alongside them.
Our two featured builds would not suit every business, and that is the point. Each application is designed around one business and the way its people already work. We are based in Sydney and build custom web applications for businesses across Australia.
Already have a website with us or elsewhere? A web application can sit alongside it, share its login, or connect to your online store and WordPress website.
We walk through how work actually flows today: the forms, spreadsheets, handovers and pain points. You get a written scope and a list of what to build first.
Modules, screens and integrations set out in plain language, with a fixed quote for each stage, so you can approve it in parts.
We build the highest-value module first and put it in your hands on a test site, so you see real software early.
Your staff test it on their own phones. We adjust wording, layout and rules based on what they tell us.
Hosting, backups, SSL, data import, and a short training session or guide for your staff.
Ongoing hosting and maintenance, with new modules added as your business grows.

A website tells people about your business. A web application runs part of it. Staff or customers log in and do real work in it, such as clocking in, raising a docket, approving a timesheet or tracking an order, and the data is stored in a database you own.
It depends on scope, so we quote after a short discovery conversation. Every project is broken into stages with a fixed quote for each, and most businesses start with the single module that saves the most time. You only commit to the next stage once the last one has proven itself.
A focused first module can usually be in your hands on a test site within weeks. Larger systems are delivered in stages, so you are using working software early instead of waiting months for a big reveal.
No. Small teams often gain the most, because today the owner is the system. We start with one pain point, such as timesheets or dispatch, and grow from there as budget allows.
Yes. We connect web applications to Xero and MYOB for invoicing and payroll data, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace for email, plus SMS and payment gateways. Where an existing tool already does its job well, we integrate with it instead of replacing it.
Our web applications are designed for phones first and can be installed to the home screen like an app, with no app store needed. If you do need a listing on the App Store or Google Play, we can package the same application for both.
You do. Your data lives in your own database, hosted in Australia, and we hand over the source code and documentation. Any competent developer can pick it up if you ever stop working with us.
We host business applications in the AWS Sydney region with encrypted connections, automatic SSL and nightly backups, so your business and employee data stays in Australia.
A custom plugin adds a feature to a WordPress website, such as a booking form or a calculator. A web application is a standalone system for running operations. We build both, and will recommend whichever is the simpler fit for the job.
Yes. We are based in Sydney and work with businesses across Australia, including Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and regional areas. Discovery, demonstrations and training all work well over video calls.
Tell us about the part of your business that eats the most hours. We will tell you honestly whether a custom web application is the right answer, and what a sensible first stage would look like. No obligation.
