Software  made  with  passion

We (Sav and Dom Tripodi) started Sanico Software back in 2020 after we left our big paycheck jobs at the Australian Federal Government. At the time, let’s say our parents were not too thrilled. For more context: we left a full-time, well-paid, permanent, and guaranteed-for-life job in favour of starting a software business with zero clients, zero wages, no certainty, and no guarantees. We understood their hesitation but nothing would stop the passion we felt to forge our own business together as brothers.

After the thrill of leaving our jobs, we quickly realised we had no clients and that it wasn’t easy to find them. Sure, we backed our technical skills as software engineers to build custom websites and software apps: easy peasy for us. But (and a big BUT) that mattered little; no one knew who we were. So, we hit the streets and earned our first clients from fairs, conventions, and walking into local shopfronts.

Year after year, we built up our client list. Like a little snowball rolling down the mountain, we slowly and organically built our business from scratch. From micro companies at local fairs to established small to mid-sized businesses. It was a hard slog, but after building software for 100s of businesses in Australia and around the globe, we know we made the right decision back in 2020 to leave our jobs.

Looking back at where we started to where we are now feels hard to believe. We persevered through the tough times and built the business to a point where companies sought us out. First, locally in Adelaide (our hometown). Second, nationally around Australia. And now, internationally across the globe. From “the unknowners” trying our best to spread our name at local fairs, to working with startups in Europe. It seems like we achieved the impossible. Our clients now range from Germany to America, Sydney to Florida.

The road to building a successful company was difficult, but we’re both proud of the software business we are continuing to build together with our team of fellow computer programmers. It took grit, hard work, perseverance, and a lot of elbow grease. Cheers to many more years working with businesses all around the world.

  • I have been working with Sanico now for around 12 months. Dom, Sav and the Sanico Team completely rebuilt our e-commerce website, taking it from a bland template, to a fully customised platform. We are stoked to be providing our customers with a better interface and experience, and have seen a significant increase in website traffic.

  • Got in touch with Dom at Sanico to help sort out some legacy technical issues I had with old websites hosted on Azure. Dom was clear in scoping out the project and keeping me involved along the way because I am one of those clients that likes the detail even if I don't fully understand it :). I'm very grateful for all their help and will use them again for future projects.
