Built for how you operate
Founded in 2005 as a close corporation — converted to ChillNet (Pty) Ltd in 2014 — ChillNet is backed by a trusted network of independent software engineers we've worked with for years, giving clients senior-level bench strength without the overhead of a large agency. We build web application and database-driven business systems for mining, auditing, automotive, and lending.
From tender processing and financial consolidation platforms to the kind of complex, long-running systems that require someone who genuinely understands what runs underneath.
- Custom Laravel backends with modern, maintainable frontends
- Open-source stack, no vendor lock-in
- End-to-end capability: from architecture and database design to deployment, hosting, and ongoing support

What we do
End-to-end development, consulting, and infrastructure for business-critical web applications.
Flexible Consulting & Development Hours
Buy a block of hours and use them flexibly for consulting or hands-on development, whichever your project needs. Work is tracked transparently in Jira and Bitbucket, with weekly time reports so you always know exactly where the hours went.
IT Consulting & Infrastructure
From server configuration and disaster recovery planning to architecture reviews and team mentorship. Two decades of Linux, database, and infrastructure experience applied directly to your challenges.
Database Architecture
Schema design and optimisation across MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MSSQL, from transactional systems to reporting layers.
Integration & APIs
REST and SOAP integrations that connect your application to ERP, payment, document, bulk SMS, and third-party systems.
Business Process Platforms
Workflow, approval, and reporting platforms, including multi-tenant SaaS where it makes sense for your business.
Web Hosting & Domain Registration
ChillNet started as a domain hosting provider over 20 years ago, and we still run that infrastructure today — multiple cPanel servers across South Africa and the EU, with DNS clusters for redundancy. cPanel hosting with email, accredited .ZA domain registration, plus dedicated servers and Linux VPS hosting for larger workloads, locally and abroad.
