CodeLoop Studio in Sarajevo builds custom CRM software when a packaged tool fights your operation. You keep the data. Discovery freezes v1: stages, roles, the report a director will actually open. We will not pretend we are Salesforce.

CodeLoop Studio in Sarajevo builds that software when a packaged tool fights your operation. You keep the data. Discovery freezes v1: stages, roles, the report a director will actually open. We will not pretend we are Salesforce. Buy HubSpot or similar if your funnel is standard and licences are cheaper than a build. Go custom when sales lives in a sheet nobody updates, field staff will not open a laptop, or you must attach stock, fleet, or local invoicing. [Hena Em](https://www.codeloop.ba/study-case/hena-em) is reservations and vehicles — operational software with a CRM-shaped core, not a demo board. The wider systems page is [custom software development](https://www.codeloop.ba/custom-software-development). Bosnian-language firms have a separate route: [custom CRM for BiH](https://www.codeloop.ba/usluge/custom-crm-bih). This page is the English product brief. Typical custom software in this studio is **three to nine months**; a thinner CRM MVP can be shorter when the slice is honest. Estimate within **24 hours** via the [online estimate](https://www.codeloop.ba/online-estimate). ## Your data. Your stages. Not a theme we can switch off. Packaged CRM fails in two boring ways: everyone is a “lead” in a vocabulary nobody uses, or the field team never opens the laptop so the sheet remains the system of record. Custom is the right buy when the record must carry stock, a vehicle, a local invoice, or a permission model a SaaS licence cannot express without a year of consultants. It is the wrong buy when your funnel is standard and five seats of HubSpot are cheaper than a build. The first discovery question is that split. We will tell you to buy the licence. v1 is login, roles, a company record, a pipeline that matches your stages, a next action, an export finance can use. Not an AI closer. Not a migration of ten dirty Excel tabs in week one. Integrations (mail, invoicing, warehouse) wait until the core holds. Mobile intake only if the shift is on a phone. Hosting and subprocessors are named up front. You hold the database — or an agreed cloud. A vanished-vendor lock-in is a failure of the engagement model. CET hours for European teams. US morning overlap is discussed honestly, not promised as a fake US office. Named owner, written status, demos. We do not invent seat counts. Hena Em is the proof of operational software with a CRM-shaped core. Koliko is inventory on device — different product, same studio: data from the shift, not from PowerPoint. Send how you work today. Starting with new leads is often cleaner than importing history. We will say which. ## What v1 includes — and what waits on purpose ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) Login and roles Sales does not see everything. Directors see a report. That is drawn before UI, not as an afterthought toggle. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) Your stages Not a vendor’s qualified/unqualified vocabulary. Pipeline that matches how you already talk about a deal. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) A company record and a next action Who owns it, what happens after the quote. A board of logos is not a process. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) An export finance can use If accounting still retypes from screenshots, we missed v1\. Integrations after the core holds. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) Not an AI closer We will not bolt a chatbot onto a dirty sheet and call it transformation. Routing and drafting only when the workflow is true. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) Field optional Mobile intake when the shift is not at a desk. Otherwise web is enough. Stack after the brief. ## Discovery before stack 1. 01 ### How you work today Sheet, WhatsApp, a tool nobody opens. We will say whether custom is the buy or whether you should stay on packaged CRM. 2. 02 ### Freeze v1 in writing Stages, roles, the report. What waits: ten years of Excel, every integration, the AI slide. 3. 03 ### Build the core Named owner, demos, written status. Hosting and subprocessors named up front. You hold the data. 4. 04 ### Import when it is cleaner Starting with new leads is often better than importing ten dirty tabs. We will say which. Then stay or hand over. ## Packaged CRM versus custom in this studio A ### Buy the licence Standard funnel, few users, no strange warehouse or fleet. HubSpot (or similar) is cheaper than a build. We will tell you to buy it. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) B ### Build the process Field staff on phones, stock or vehicles on the record, local invoicing, a sheet that is the company. Custom CRM: your stages, your data, your hosting. ![](https://www.codeloop.ba/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Fcodeloop-logo.png&w=3840&q=75) Case study Hena Em Reservations and fleet — a CRM-shaped core inside operations, not a pipeline slide. Same studio discipline as inventory-on-device and protocol dashboards. Public case study. No invented seat counts. [Open case →](https://www.codeloop.ba/study-case/hena-em) ## Frequently asked If it fits, buy it. We build when licences, fields, and workflow cost more than software, or when you must attach operations the SaaS cannot. That is the first discovery question. We can plan an import once v1 is live. Starting with new leads is often cleaner than importing ten dirty tabs. We will say which. Sarajevo. Custom CRM is delivered remotely. We do not list a local office we do not have.
