SQL Server development
SQL Server behind 352 schools’ worth of records.
E2P+SEND keeps every child’s observations, assessments and SEND records in Microsoft SQL Server, with a .NET backend on Azure virtual machines. We design SQL Server databases for systems like that, and take on existing ones that need work.
How we use SQL Server
We use SQL Server with .NET systems, especially in Microsoft estates.
- Daily
- Regularly
- When it fits
Where it works well
- .NET backends, where the tooling fits hand in glove
- Organisations already licensed for Microsoft SQL Server
- Structured records with strict rules, like assessments and audits
- Reporting straight from the database
Where it breaks down
- A small new product, where licensing costs more than PostgreSQL
- Business logic buried in stored procedures nobody can test
- No indexes or maintenance plans as the data grows
What we use instead
- PostgreSQL Relational without the licence fee.
- Azure SQLManaged SQL Server, if you don’t need a VM.
You’re probably here because…
What people usually need when they search for SQL Server help.
Logic lives in stored procedures nobody dares change.
Document, test, then move it.
We map what the procedures do and move the risky ones into tested .NET code, in stages.
You need a new system that fits your Microsoft estate.
.NET, SQL Server and Azure.
The stack E2P+SEND runs on, built around your data from day one.
What we build with SQL Server
Databases for systems with serious records.
Schema design
Tables, keys and constraints that match how the organisation works.
E2P+SEND.
Reporting
Progress, audit and management reports from the data you hold.
Performance tuning
Slow queries and missing indexes found and fixed.
Migrations
Upgrades, moves to Azure, or moves to PostgreSQL when that pays off.
Our SQL Server platform
We say plainly which clients we still work with.
E2P+SEND
Schools track what each child learns from early years through primary, with observations, photos and SEND records that staff and parents can both see.

How a build runs
The same steps on every project. You approve designs before we write code.
- Day 1
A 30-minute call
Bring the problem and how you handle it today. We ask questions and tell you honestly what we would build first. We won’t pitch at you.
- Next
Written proposal and fixed quote
What is in scope, what goes on the backlog, the stack we’d use and why, the timeline and one price.
- Week 1
Onboarding
A kick-off meeting, a shared Slack channel and access to the repository. Rehan is your day-to-day contact.
- Design
Designs you approve
We design the main screens and journeys first. Nothing gets coded until you have signed the designs off.
- Build
Architecture first, then code
We agree the architecture before writing code, then build with updates twice a week on Slack. Any new request is logged as extra hours and reported weekly.
- Launch
Live, handed over, supported
Deployed to production with your Git repositories and documentation handed over. Bug fixes are free for the first two months.
What it costs
Real ranges from our own projects. Fixed quote for a build, or a monthly rate for a developer.
Smallest project we take$5,000A tightly scoped build with one core workflow.
Typical project$10,000–$30,000Several user roles, integrations and reporting.
Dedicated engineer$2,500/monthA full-time engineer working on your product.
Included as standard
- UI/UX design, approved before any code
- Two-factor login and OWASP Top 10 security practices
- Deployment to production
- Git repositories and written documentation
- Two months of free bug fixes after launch
Not included
- Payment gateways and other premium integrations, quoted separately
- Graphic design, video and animation
- Features added mid-build, logged as extra hours
After the free two months, maintenance is $700 a month. New features are quoted as you need them, or you can have a dedicated engineer from $2,500 a month.
Are we the right team for this?
We’re a good fit if
- You run on Microsoft SQL Server, or plan to
- Your records have strict rules and a long life
- You want .NET and Azure around it
- You want to own the code and data
We’re probably not if
- Requests for new features get reported as bugs so they don’t count as scope
- You mainly need graphic design, video or animation
- The budget is under $5,000

Platform-level reviews of the agency — not cherry-picked project comments.
What I love about Team7 is that they always say: No worries, we can find a solution. This is the mindset of builders, creators, people who do not have fear, the partner you need if you want to excel.
Working with Mo and his team over the past year has been nothing short of exceptional. I was admittedly sceptical about investing such a large amount, but results exceeded every expectation.
Their responsiveness and willingness to take on our challenging task were impressive.
They are amazing and consistently exceed expectations. They go above and beyond what is asked of them and their communication is top notch, so much so that we joke that they never sleep. The best of the best.
Common questions
Straight answers about SQL Server, cost and how we work.
Ask us something elseSQL Server or PostgreSQL?
SQL Server when you are on .NET and Microsoft already, or have SQL Server data and skills to keep. PostgreSQL when you are starting fresh and want to avoid licence fees. We recommend one on the call.
What happens after launch?
Bug fixes are free for two months. After that, maintenance is $700 a month. New features are quoted as you need them, or you can have a dedicated engineer from $2,500 a month.
Who owns the code?
You do. At handover you get the Git repositories and written documentation. There is nothing tying the software back to us, so you can take it to an in-house team whenever you like.
Who will I talk to, and how often?
Rehan, one of our two founders, is your day-to-day contact. You get updates on Slack twice a week and can see the code in your repository at any time. We split working hours between us to cover US, UK and Australian time zones, and we usually reply within an hour, sometimes the next morning.
