What JustSolve does

JustSolve Solutions (Proprietary) Limited is a South African software development and digital transformation firm headquartered in Pretoria, operating a remote-first delivery model with 51-100 employees. Founded/incorporated in 2020 (registration 2020/855505/07) and led by founder/CEO Botha van der Vyver, the company delivers professional services spanning custom software development, low-code application development (OutSystems, Mendix/Siemens, Microsoft Power Apps/Power Pages/Power BI), experience design (UX/UI/Product), hyperautomation, mobile and web app development, and AI/automation services. Its 'Intelligent Transformation' methodology is a five-stage framework (Intent, Foundations, Orchestrate, Build, Run & Scale) anchored by a proprietary AI readiness assessment called the 'AI Solved' programme, including the Enterprise Execution Gap Assessment. The company also operates the proprietary JustSolve Integration Layer (JIL), used in client deployments to connect third-party systems such as Netcash, Axiros, Centricity, and Salesforce.

The firm monetises through three revenue streams: professional services (consulting, project-based delivery, staff augmentation), managed services (ongoing operational support, observability, cloud governance, enterprise security), and software licensing (OutSystems and Mendix licensing renewals). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with consultation intake capturing budget ranges from less than R100,000 to more than R5 million and engagement models supporting multi-year contracts. Distribution is primarily direct enterprise field sales plus inside-sales consultation flows, augmented by technology partner channels (OutSystems, Microsoft, UnifyApps, Mendix).

JustSolve serves three primary customer segments - large enterprises (>300 employees), small and medium enterprises, and established start-ups - across verticals including banking and financial services, healthcare, mining, telecommunications (BCX, WonderNet/SEACOM), broadcasting (SABC), automotive (SMD), and logistics. Notable enterprise customers include BCX, BCX Data Networks, WonderNet/SEACOM, SABC, and EmpowerFS. The firm has accumulated 12+ OutSystems partner awards between 2017-2023, including regional honours for most foundation teams, customer satisfaction, and competency badges in MEA. In October 2025, JustSolve became South Africa's first official UnifyApps partner, adding an agentic AI orchestration capability to its portfolio alongside existing Microsoft and OutSystems/Mendix competencies.
