For IT teams DOCby.net is more than construction software: a mobile development platform, an integration layer to SAP, MS Project, tendering tools and BIM - and a whitelabel-ready front-end. One codebase, many applications. REST API, SSO via Active Directory, on-prem option and ISO 27001 hosting in Germany.
DOCby.net is not just an application but a stack: the DOC.mobile framework as the platform, native iOS and Android clients as the mobile layer, and a configurable integration layer to your existing systems. One consistent architecture across every industry application.
The DOC.mobile framework: data model, roles, sync, reporting, API. Configured via classes and properties - no code fork per customer.
Native iOS and Android clients - with offline sync, photo, position on plan and signature. One app, any number of configured applications.
REST API, SSO via SAML/OIDC, connectors to SAP, MS Project, tendering tools, BIM (IFC), DMS systems. One integration hub for every industry workflow.
If you want to build your own mobile applications for construction, wind or industry, you don't need a greenfield - you need a proven platform with interfaces / APIs, a security model and a clear update path. These are the six use cases we see most often with our customers' IT departments.
Build your own apps on the DOC.mobile framework: configure the data model instead of writing code. Over-the-air updates.
OpenAPI-documented REST API for reading and writing every business object. Webhooks for events.
Connectors to SAP PM, MS Project and tendering tools (iTWO, ARRIBA). No more double data entry.
Import IFC models, version plans, locate defects on the BIM element - lean, without a heavy CAD client.
Single sign-on via SAML, OpenID Connect or direct AD/Azure AD integration. Roles derived from AD groups.
An app in your company's look - your icon, your domain, your branding. Roll out through your enterprise app store.
The DOC.mobile framework bundles the core capabilities that every industry application shares: data model, sync, security and reporting. More detail in the DOC.mobile Suite.
The construction software API from DOCby.net is deliberately generic - not tailored to a single backend system. It fits an SAP standard just as well as a bespoke ERP landscape. We provide the connectors; your IT stays in the lead.
"We didn't want a tenth app, we wanted a platform. DOC.mobile gives us data model, sync and API in one place - three of our own industry applications run on the same base today. Updates land for all of them at once."
"We had SSO via AD and the SAP connectors live in two weeks - including two workshops with the DOCby.net team. The REST API is cleanly documented, no reverse engineering needed."
Server stack: Java / Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, optional Redis. Native mobile clients: Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android). Back-office front-end: TypeScript with a modern web framework. API: REST with OpenAPI specification, optional GraphQL endpoint. Dedicated SDKs for Java, .NET and JavaScript are available.
Yes. You can run DOCby.net in your own data centre - as a container deployment (Docker, Kubernetes) or a classic VM install. Alternative: private cloud in our ISO 27001 data centre in Germany. Hybrid setups (mobile sync in the cloud, data on-prem) are also possible.
Three options: usage-based per user per month, project-based with a flat fee (unlimited users), or a platform licence for your own industry applications (whitelabel, sub-tenants). Details under Pricing 2026.
Yes - that is exactly what the mobile development platform is for. You configure the data model via PSE, define workflows and permissions, brand the UI - and the app is whitelabel-ready. Framework updates ship for everyone while your configuration stays intact. On request we deliver the build as a custom solution.
SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect or direct LDAP/AD integration. Roles are derived from AD groups. Inside the application a fine-grained permission model applies at object, property and field level. A full audit trail is written throughout.
ISO 27001 (regularly certified by DEKRA), TLS 1.3 transport encryption, AES-256 for data at rest. GDPR-compliant DPA, documented TOMs, pen-tests, DPIA on request. More under Perfect Support and Why DOCby.net.
We walk your IT team through it: architecture, REST API, SSO, SAP integration, hosting. Concrete, technical, no marketing fluff. Reply within 1 business day. Different industry? Construction or Wind & Energy.
