Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Software & web development company in Dubai

We are based in Deira. Most of our clients are a short drive away — which is why we still do kick-off in person.

Overview

Building software in Dubai.

Zellarc builds web applications, mobile apps and custom business systems for companies operating in Dubai. We have been doing it from here since 2020, which means we already know the things that catch out an overseas vendor: the VAT treatment the FTA expects, how a trade licence constrains what you can invoice for, and why a system that cannot produce a bilingual invoice will eventually cost you a client.

Dubai is where the commercial pressure is highest and the tolerance for downtime is lowest. Most of the work we take on here is not a first website — it is a business that has outgrown spreadsheets, or a platform that was built cheaply, shipped, and is now falling over as it scales.

Sectors

Who we build for in Dubai.

The problems repeat by industry more than they repeat by technology.

Trading & re-export

Multi-currency inventory, supplier management and customs documentation for businesses moving goods through Jebel Ali and Dubai’s free zones.

Travel & tourism

Booking platforms, supplier integrations and back-office systems for agencies working with high seasonal volume.

Retail & F&B

Point of sale, multi-branch stock and delivery integrations for operators running several locations across the emirate.

Professional services

Client portals, CRM and billing systems for consultancies, law firms and agencies in Business Bay and DIFC.

How we work

Working with a Dubai team, not a distant one

The practical difference is response time and accountability. When something breaks at 4pm on a Thursday, you are talking to the people who wrote the code, in your timezone, and they can be in your office the next morning if it warrants it. Offshore rates look attractive until the first real incident.
