Ephibian's service portfolio covers five core lines: Software Development (mobile, client-server, browser-based, and database applications), Web Solutions (design, development, SEO, ecommerce, social media, hosting), Database Services (data integration, data design, data warehouses, reporting), Information Security (architecture, policy, risk assessment, vulnerability testing, disaster recovery/COOP), and Infrastructure Services (servers, networks, storage, cloud computing across Google, IBM, Microsoft, HP, Amazon, and VMware environments). Technology breadth is substantial, spanning C#, Java, ASP.NET, PHP, J2EE, SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and DB2, augmented by the proprietary Ephibian Framework Technology (EFT) used for web-based applications and learning management systems. Information security work is staffed by CISSP-credentialed professionals with DoD clearances.

The firm operates a project-based professional services model with consultative, relationship-driven sales targeting enterprise, government, and mid-market clients. Revenue is generated through custom development projects, IT consulting and integration engagements, hosting services delivered via third-party providers, and selective productization of internally developed tools (e.g., the ChesterCAP grant management system supporting 12 community foundations). Ephibian is privately held with no identified outside investors, parent company, or acquisition activity, and pricing is not publicly disclosed.
