The next step to your better business:
Make informed technology decisions, and maximise your return.
- Connect your technology roadmap to your business goals, operational workflows, and integration requirements.
- Clear assessment of your options, so you understand the trade-offs, efficiencies and benefits of each.
- Practical guidance from initial requirements through design, development and rollout.
Powerful systems, built around how your organisation actually works.
- When existing systems can't match your requirements, we build what you need — with deep strength in .NET and SQL Server.

Keep your critical systems operating smoothly, and in support of the business.
- Proactive updates and monitoring to help keep you safe, compliant and supported.
- Responsive, attentive help from people who know your system, not a generic ticket queue.
- Protect your software investment by keeping it well-oiled, monitored and efficient.
Fast, secure hosting, fully managed for you.
- We handle servers, updates, backups and monitoring, so your team can focus on the business.
- Load balancing, firewalling, and forward caching keep sites and applications responsive.
- Built-in security and anti-spam protection for your web and email services.
Modernise without losing what works.
- Maintain your valuable business logic and data while moving to a modern, supportable platform.
- Low-risk, progressive step-by-step migration that keeps your business online even during the transition.

We work with a range of industry standard languages and tech.
Delivering software excellence for 27 years in New Zealand, Australia, the USA and UK.
We've built software for a vast range of organisations across diverse fields — let's talk about what you need in yours.
Small and Medium Enterprises
The majority of our clients are agile, small to medium enterprises in Australia and New Zealand – the backbone of the local economy.
And now is the most exciting time for development ever: supercharged by modern AI development, smaller, nimble businesses can access the same — or better — calibre of custom software that was once reserved for larger corporates.
We can help guide you through:
- Workflow automation & AI Integration
- Software aligned directly to operations
- Integration between diverse systems for operational efficiency
- Purchase & Order Management
- Inventory Tracking & Management
- Customer Data Management
Business Process Automation
Much of our work involves taking on an existing business operation or line-of-business application or database and supercharging it — modernising the technology and matching it more closely with the underlying business functions.
Whether it's job operations management, rental hireage, transport collection, financial tracking or inventory management, we map your exact business with an intelligent web-based system that follows your process precisely, rather than forcing you to adapt to someone else's generic template.
Examples include systems for:
- Client Job Management
- Rental & Hireage Management
- Transport & Collection Management
- Financial Management
- Appraisal Management
Manufacturing & Industry
Canary's roots go back a long way in this sector. Our earliest work was based within Industrial Research Limited (IRL) — the government Crown Research Institute formed after the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR) was restructured — writing code for vision systems, robotics and other ambitious government research projects during its early hey-day.
That engineering heritage still shapes how we approach manufacturing and industry today: developing software systems that push the limits of current norms, managing processing functions, assisting decision-making, reducing bottlenecks and increasing throughput.
Samples of previous projects include:
- Machine vision & robotics systems
- Process management systems
- Timber sorting machines in conjunction with Tui Technology
- Software Management for Laser Cutting Operations
Public Sector
Canary operates in this demanding sector by developing systems to increase efficiency, reduce costs and provide accessibility to information. Working with New Zealand's export industries and health and research sectors, we have been able to help these organisations streamline activities and provide better service.
Projects completed by Canary in this sector include systems for:
- Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
- Purchase & Order Management
- Inventory Tracking & Management
- Health Data Management
- Export Tracking & International Quota Management
Health & Healthcare
Canary's work with health related projects has provided means to allow these high priority organisations to drive efficiency, in efforts to provide better services for patients.
Projects in this sector completed by Canary include:
- Disease Monitoring Database Systems
- Centralised Data Management
- Values Assessment Systems
Professional Services
Canary supports professional services with custom-made software systems for specific service delivery, as well as time-billing systems and software innovation.
- Custom Service Delivery Systems
- Time & Billing Systems
- Software Innovation & Consulting
