Egypt

Egyptian Software Company

Intrazero is an Egyptian software company founded in 2016, headquartered in Cairo with offices in Dubai, Riyadh and Muscat. We build enterprise software for government bodies, universities and healthcare providers: 200+ delivered projects for 500+ institutions across 5+ countries, working with 24+ ministries and government entities.

We are not a website agency. Our core work is operational systems under real load — national examination platforms, student information systems, medical asset management and medical waste tracking — alongside five SaaS products built entirely in-house.

What we actually build

Most of what we deliver runs daily operations for large organisations rather than marketing sites. That means different requirements: load capacity, security auditing, integration with systems already in place, and Arabic right-to-left support as a design requirement rather than a later addition.

  • National-scale online examination and assessment systems
  • Student information systems (SIS) and integration with existing learning platforms
  • Medical asset and maintenance management systems
  • Medical waste tracking and chain-of-custody systems
  • Enterprise web and mobile applications
  • System integration and middleware layers

Our work inside Egypt

The bulk of our record is Egyptian. The clearest example is the Egyptian Medical Licensing Exam (EMLE): iTest ran the national physician licensing examination for the Egyptian Health Council and the Ministry of Health and Population, with 9,397 doctors sitting it and a 98.9% completion rate.

In higher education, iMiddleware connects 500+ institutions — Egyptian government faculties and universities — to the national learning platform project, mapping faculty, student and course data into each faculty's own systems.

  • Egyptian Health Council and Ministry of Health and Population — EMLE
  • Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research — national learning platform project
  • Egyptian Knowledge Bank
  • Military Medical Academy
  • UNICEF and the World Health Organization at organisation level

Five SaaS products built in-house

Unlike services firms that start every project from zero, we have five products to build on. That shortens delivery when your requirement overlaps an existing product, and it means the code we hand over has been tested in real production environments rather than in a single project.

  • iTest — examination and assessment platform: 120,000+ concurrent candidates, 2M+ exams a year
  • iStudent — student information system, including iMiddleware for integration
  • iTutor — AI learning platform with its own site at itutor.study
  • iAssets — medical asset and maintenance management
  • MedWaste — medical waste tracking across 27 governorates and 3,000+ facilities

How we work

We scope before writing code: what the problem is, which existing systems it must connect to, and what has to work on launch day versus what can wait. Enterprise projects usually fail on undefined scope, not on technical difficulty.

Delivery is staged, with a test environment you can actually use, then a gradual move to production. The code and documentation are yours, and we hand over an environment your own team can run if you want that.

  • Scoping and requirements before any estimate
  • Staged delivery with a working test environment
  • Technical documentation and full code handover
  • Post-launch support and maintenance under an SLA

Why an Egyptian company specifically

Working with a team inside Egypt removes practical friction: the same time zone, in-person meetings when they matter, contracting and invoicing in Egyptian pounds, and direct familiarity with what Egyptian government bodies require on procurement and compliance.

The most practical difference is language. Arabic right-to-left support in our systems is part of the design rather than a translation applied afterwards — a gap that shows up clearly in printing, reports and complex forms.

  • Same time zone, in-person meetings available
  • Contracting and invoicing in Egyptian pounds
  • Direct experience of Egyptian government procurement
  • Genuine Arabic RTL support designed in, not bolted on

FAQ

What is the best software company in Egypt?

There is no single answer, because 'best' depends on the type of project. The questions that actually separate firms are: has the company delivered a system at your scale before, and can it name it? Does it have experience in your specific sector (government, education, healthcare)? Does it hand over the code and documentation or retain them? And what is the post-launch support agreement? Intrazero is an Egyptian company founded in 2016 that has delivered 200+ projects for 500+ institutions, with its clearest specialism in large-scale government, education and healthcare systems — a very different discipline from website or e-commerce development.

How much does custom software development cost in Egypt?

Cost follows scope, not page count. Observed Egyptian market rates put a simple brochure site between EGP 8,000 and 20,000, a corporate site between EGP 8,000 and 55,000, and platforms between EGP 50,000 and 200,000. Large enterprise systems — a national examination platform or a full student information system — sit above those ranges because the integration, security and load requirements are entirely different. The factors that actually move the price: how many systems it must connect to, security and audit requirements, concurrent user numbers, and how clearly the requirements are defined before work starts.

What is the difference between an Egyptian software company and a foreign one?

Four practical differences: cost, since Egyptian rates are substantially below Europe and the Gulf for equivalent experience; time zone, so communication happens within the same working day rather than across a full cycle; contracting in Egyptian pounds without currency friction; and local context, specifically Egyptian government procurement requirements and genuine Arabic RTL support. The potential drawback is that some local firms have not delivered at large scale before — ask that directly and request named projects.

Do you work with government bodies in Egypt?

Yes, and it is the largest part of our work. We work with 24+ ministries and government entities. Egyptian examples include the Egyptian Medical Licensing Exam (EMLE) for the Egyptian Health Council and Ministry of Health and Population, taken by 9,397 doctors; the Ministry of Higher Education's national learning platform project connecting 500+ institutions; plus the Egyptian Knowledge Bank and the Military Medical Academy. We have direct experience of the government procurement cycle and its documentation and handover requirements.

What technologies do you use?

We choose technology to fit the project rather than the reverse. In practice we build on mature enterprise web stacks with relational databases, modern web front ends, and mobile applications where needed. The standard we hold to is that what we deliver must be maintainable by an internal team or by another firm after us — so we avoid closed solutions that lock you to us, and we hand over the code and documentation in full.

How long does an enterprise system take to build?

It depends on scope and integration depth. Contained projects with clear requirements finish in weeks; enterprise systems tied into existing platforms take months. The largest factor is not code volume but requirement clarity and how quickly the client can make decisions, which is why we always start with a scoping phase before giving any timeline — an estimate before scoping is a guess, not a commitment.

Do you provide support after delivery?

Yes, under an SLA agreed before launch covering response times and scope. Our systems run in environments that cannot tolerate downtime — national examinations and healthcare systems — so post-launch support is part of the contract rather than an add-on. The code and documentation are yours either way, so your team or another party can continue if you prefer.
