Have questions about working with us? Here are answers to the most common questions we receive from clients and partners.

What technologies does Horizon use for software development?

We select the best technology for each project based on requirements.
Where is Horizon located?
Horizon is headquartered in the Dubai metropolitan area (Sharjah Media City, UAE) with a European sales and support office in Warsaw, Poland. We serve clients globally across the UAE, Europe, North America, and Asia.
What types of projects does Horizon develop?

How much does custom software development cost at Horizon?
Project costs vary based on scope and complexity. We offer flexible engagement models: fixed-price projects starting from $5,000, time & materials for ongoing development, and dedicated team arrangements. Contact us for a free consultation and estimate.
What languages does the Horizon team speak?
Our multilingual team communicates fluently in English, Arabic, Polish, German, and Hindi. This enables us to serve clients across the Middle East, Europe, and Asia with native-level communication.
How does a typical engagement with Horizon begin?
We usually start with a discovery call to clarify goals, constraints, and success criteria. From there we may propose a short technical spike or architecture review, followed by a phased roadmap—so you see working software early and can adjust scope before large commitments.
How long does it take to build custom software?
Timelines depend on scope: a focused MVP might ship in weeks, while enterprise platforms can span several months or evolve continuously. We break work into milestones with clear deliverables and keep you informed so expectations stay aligned with reality.
Do you offer support and maintenance after launch?
Yes. We provide post-launch monitoring, bug fixes, security updates, performance tuning, and feature iterations under retainer or on-demand agreements. Many clients treat us as an extension of their product team after go-live.
Who owns the code and intellectual property?
Under our standard agreements, you own the deliverables and IP for work you have paid for, subject to contract terms. Third-party licenses (open-source libraries, SaaS APIs, etc.) remain under their respective licenses—we document those clearly in the handover.
Can Horizon work with our existing codebase or in-house team?
Absolutely. We regularly join mid-flight products, audit legacy systems, and pair with internal engineers through shared repos, code reviews, and agreed workflows. We adapt to your tools—whether GitHub, GitLab, Jira, or your own SDLC.
