Cheap custom software development in Dhanmondi that your front-desk girl can actually use on day one
I am RH Fardin — a one-person software shop, not an agency. If you run a coaching centre, a diagnostic lab, a boutique or a restaurant around Dhanmondi and you have been quoted either 70,000 BDT by a Facebook 'developer' or 4 lakh by a firm, this is the honest middle. Cheap here means a tight, real tool starting at 50,000 BDT — built by the same person who picks up when you message.
Low cost custom software development in Dhanmondi from 50,000 BDT. 50% advance, 50% on launch. Around 5 years building software in Bangladesh — every screen designed and coded by me, no juniors.
+Trusted by 50+ founders, agencies and teams across Bangladesh and beyond.

Dhanmondi is dense with exactly the businesses that need small custom software and get burned by it: coaching centres on every other road tracking hundreds of students by hand, diagnostic labs and chambers around Road 27 and Satmasjid Road still calling patients to read out results, boutiques and salons running on a paper khata and a calculator. Almost all of them have, at some point, paid someone cheap for 'software' and watched it die. That is the trap I want to keep you out of.
Here is the uncomfortable truth about most cheap custom software development in Dhanmondi: the 60,000-taka version usually is not software, it is a free admin template with your logo on it and a database nobody designed. It demos beautifully. Then your receptionist cannot edit a wrong invoice, the search takes eight seconds on 200 records, the bKash payment never ties back to the right student, and the 'developer' has stopped replying. Three months later you are paying someone else more than the original quote just to make it usable.
I built this low cost custom software development option in Dhanmondi for the real gap — between that 70,000-taka mess and a 4-lakh software-house engagement that most single-branch Dhanmondi businesses genuinely do not need yet. Cheap, to me, means a deliberately small but properly built tool: one job done correctly, real database design, a clean screen your staff can learn in ten minutes, and code you actually own. It starts at 50,000 BDT and I will tell you on the first call whether your idea fits there.
I am the only person who touches your project — discovery, design, code, deployment, handover. No sales rep in Gulshan, no junior in Mirpur. If what you need is honestly more than the cheap tier can hold (multi-branch, real ERP, complex roles), I will say so on the call and quote the right tier instead of selling you a 50,000-taka thing that quietly cannot do the job.
The 50,000 BDT custom software start is one focused tool built right — not a stripped, half-finished version of a bigger system you will have to rescue later.
Cheap works when the scope is tight. We pick the single thing eating your time — student fees, lab reports, stock, daily sales — and I build that one tool properly instead of a vague 'full system' that does ten things badly.
Your staff can fix a wrong invoice, refund an entry, correct a name, and search 5,000 records instantly. That sounds basic — it is exactly what the cheap Facebook builds never get right.
If you collect fees or payments via bKash or Nagad, I link each payment to the right student, patient or order with a reference and a confirmation log — so your accounts actually reconcile at month-end.
Your receptionist's Symphony and your accountant's old laptop both matter. I build light, mobile-first screens that load fast on Dhanmondi's everyday 4G — no heavy dashboard that freezes the front desk.
Non-technical staff have to run this from day one. Big buttons, Bangla-English labels where it helps, no training manual needed — and a short screen-recording walkthrough on handover.
Source code, database and admin login handed to you in writing. Hosting and domain in your name. If you ever replace me, you walk away with the whole thing — not held hostage for a renewal fee.
The honest mechanism is fixed, narrow scope — not cut corners. The 50,000 BDT tier is one core module with clean database design, the screens to run it, one round of changes, bKash or Nagad tie-in if you need it, and a 30-day post-launch fix window. Because the scope is pinned on the first call, I can quote it confidently and you can budget it confidently — no 'sir aro 30,000 lagbe' surprise in week three, which is exactly how the cheap quotes around Dhanmondi balloon. When the work genuinely needs more — staff roles and permissions, SMS to students, multi-branch, deeper reporting — that is the 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT tier, and anything truly large like a full ERP or booking platform starts at 3,00,000 BDT. I would rather move you up a tier than ship a 50,000-taka tool I know will choke in six months.
The other reason this price is even possible is that I am not an agency. There is no office to rent on Satmasjid Road, no project manager forwarding your WhatsApp to a junior, no five-person sales floor adding their salaries to your quote. You message me, I reply; I design the screens, write the code, set up the database, deploy it, and hand it over. That strips out most of the overhead a Dhanmondi software house has to pass on — so 'cheap' here is really just 'no middlemen,' not 'less care.' The same senior who quotes you is the one debugging your software at launch, and that is the whole point.

The real questions Dhanmondi business owners ask before they trust anyone with cheap custom software.
The honest floor is 50,000 BDT for one properly built tool — say a fee tracker, a lab-report system or a simple stock-and-sales tool — with real database design, not a template. More moving parts (staff roles, SMS, multi-branch, deeper reports) move you to 90,000 or 1,50,000 BDT, and a full ERP or booking platform starts at 3,00,000 BDT. Terms are 50% advance, 50% on launch. If your idea genuinely fits the cheap tier, I'll confirm it on the first call; if it doesn't, I'll tell you straight rather than sell you a 50,000-taka thing that can't do the job.
Two different reasons. I'm cheaper than a Dhanmondi software house because there's no office, no sales team and no junior layer — you pay for the work, not the overhead. I'm more than the 'I'll do it for 20,000' Facebook developers because they're handing you a free template with no real database, no edit/undo, no payment reconciliation and no support after week two. I quote a tighter scope but actually build and stand behind it.
Sometimes — but I'll be honest after looking. I get rescue requests every quarter where a coaching centre or lab paid 70,000–1,20,000 BDT, it broke, and the developer vanished. If the database and code are salvageable, fixing is cheaper than rebuilding and I'll quote the fix. If it's a nulled template with no real data structure underneath, patching it costs more long-term than a clean small build, and I'll show you why before you spend more on a dead end.
That's the whole design brief, not an afterthought. The cheap tier is built for one non-technical person to run from day one — large clear buttons, Bangla-English labels where they help, the common actions one tap away, and confirmation prompts so a wrong click doesn't wreck your data. On handover you get a short screen-recording walkthrough, and most Dhanmondi receptionists I've built for were running it confidently the same afternoon.
Yes, and for most single-branch Dhanmondi businesses that's the right call. Instead of an expensive payment-gateway integration, I log each bKash or Nagad payment against the correct student, patient or order with its transaction reference and a confirmation status — so your front desk records it once and your month-end accounts actually reconcile. If you later outgrow manual entry, that's a paid upgrade, but it isn't needed to launch cheaply.
You own it — fully and in writing. Source code, database and admin login are handed over, and the hosting and domain go in your name, not mine. There's no mandatory monthly fee to keep it running and no lock that lets me hold your data hostage. If you ever want another developer to take over or extend it, they get everything they need. Cheap should never mean trapped, and I put that on paper before we start.
