The South African software development company that does things the right way

Codehesion won the 2026 MyBroadband Award for Best Software Development Company – and a key reason for this is its commitment to ensuring that your software works the way it should.

It has performed numerous software rescue projects where a client had a system that is not working as it should.

Codehesion analyses the project to determine where its flaws lie, and how they must be fixed.

“The issue that causes the most damage is usually invisible to the business until it’s too late: architectural debt,” said Codehesion founder and CEO Hector Beyers.

“The system was built without a scalable foundation, no clear separation of concerns, no consistent patterns, and no plan for what happens when the business grows.”

The software may work at first, but as the business scales, it becomes clear that the system can no longer do what it is meant to.

“By the time the business feels the pain, the fix isn’t a patch – it’s a significant rebuild,” said Beyers.

Fixing your software where it matters most

Beyers explained that when Codehesion takes on a failed project from other developers, it first focuses on business value – not code.

“A client doesn’t come to us because their codebase is messy,” said Beyers.

“They come because they have a business problem.”

This can be feature release delays, platform abandonments, security flaws, or broken integrations.

Codehesion will perform a code audit that is structured around how each issue impacts the business – not how bad the code looks.

Issues are classified as low, medium, or high priority, and Codehesion will address the highest-priority issues first.

“A client who’s hemorrhaging customers doesn’t need a perfectly refactored codebase – they need the bleeding stopped,” said Beyers.

Once the critical issues are stabilized, Codehesion will progress onto the underlying issues – like poor code, sub-par architecture, and shaky foundations – with the goal of preventing problems from reoccurring.
