Custom development
for your CRM
Webhooks (instant notifications between systems), middleware (an intermediary service), AI capabilities, Telegram bots, custom reports. When the system's native features fall short — we extend it through the API. Server-side, no client-side secrets.
Custom CRM development
at WDP, in short
Five facts before the project starts.
In short
- Custom development at WDP means extending the CRM beyond its native capabilities: middleware, webhooks, AI, Telegram bots, custom reports for Pipedrive, NetHunt, Uspacy and KeyCRM.
- We go from simple to complex: native features first, then no-code (Make), and only when those hit their limits — custom code through the API.
- Timelines run from 1 week (a simple webhook) to 3+ months (an AI assistant or a two-way ERP integration); the estimate comes after a free introductory consultation and discovery.
- All code is client property: the repository is handed over at contract close, and secrets live server-side only.
- After launch: 2 weeks of free hypercare, then support and further development under an SLA with response times from 4 hours.
Six directions
of custom development
WEBHOOK
Middleware service
A middleware service between the CRM and external systems: retries on failed requests, queues, logging, data transformation. Production-grade and ready for real load.
AI
AI capabilities
Gemini API or GPT: lead-quality scoring, email generation, call transcription, short meeting summaries, automatic task assignment.
BI
Custom reports and dashboards
Looker Studio, Power BI or Metabase on top of the CRM API. Team KPIs, sales funnel, sales forecast, plan vs. actual. Refreshed automatically.
BOT
Telegram bots
Notifications on new leads, deal statuses, tasks. Two-way communication: reply from Telegram → comment lands in the CRM.
AUTO
Automation beyond no-code builders
Scenarios too complex for Make/Zapier: conditional logic, multiple APIs, error handling, retries on failed requests. Custom Node.js or PHP.
EXT
CRM extensions
Marketplace apps for Pipedrive, Chrome extensions for NetHunt, custom modules in Uspacy. Beyond the native feature set.
