Argusoft

Argusoft is a boutique software services company headquartered in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India, with an office in Newark, California. Founded by serial entrepreneurs Ram Gopalan and Ravi Gopalan, the company focuses on business automation and SOA system integration using Java, PHP, .NET, and web technologies. The leadership team brings over 100 years of combined experience across strategic marketing, software engineering, operations, and international business development. Argusoft delivers services through two primary models: turnkey projects and extended teams (mODC—managed Offshore Development Center), positioning itself as a managed team rather than a staff-augmentation shop.

Services and capabilities

Argusoft's core offerings span custom software development, mobile application development, QA and testing, DevOps consulting, data engineering, and cybersecurity integration. The company maintains an independent QA team separate from development to ensure objective testing; this separation is positioned as a safeguard against the typical trade-off of quality when testing and development operate in the same group.

Mobile development includes enterprise-grade solutions for iOS, Android, and hybrid frameworks (Ionic, AngularJS) paired with traditional backends. Argusoft has shipped mobile applications across healthcare, education, restaurant supply chain, and other sectors. The company also offers third-party QA services, DevOps environment setup and deployment strategy redesign, and data engineering covering cloud migrations, real-time ETL, and cost optimization.

Beyond services, Argusoft has built proprietary intellectual property. The Business Modeller Framework is a configuration-based tool for workflow-driven applications, including document management, user management, workflow management, and reporting. The framework promises faster time-to-market and easier upgradability. TriageSTAT and TriageTRACE are HIPAA-compliant smartphone applications for healthcare delivery—the former provides structured messaging between nurses and physicians; the latter handles change-of-condition management in skilled nursing facilities to reduce hospital readmissions. MEDplat is a mobile-based triaging and service delivery platform with a decision engine that maps clinical workflows. erooBroo (built on the roobroo platform) is a web collaboration suite featuring VoIP, video, desktop sharing, and chat, available as an OEM solution for SMBs. opTEMS is an on-premise trust and estate management system with a drag-and-drop interface for organizations managing trusts and guardianships.

Notable work

Argusoft was contracted by the Administrator General Department of the Government of Jamaica to build the Trust and Estate Management System (contract signed August 2016). The company has deployed mHealth solutions in maternal and child health, including a smartphone-based system for pregnant mother management and another for ART (anti-retroviral therapy) centers to prevent mother-to-child AIDS transmission. TriageTRACE has been deployed in skilled nursing facilities to manage change-of-condition documentation and reduce hospital readmissions. The Tripura Vision Centre project, a teleconsultation initiative, won the Best Government Policy Initiative award (e-health category) at the 7th eINDIA Award in 2011. mAID (P-HMMS) won both the Manthan and mBillionth Awards for mobile health innovation in South Asia.

How they work

Argusoft's engagement model centers on the mODC (managed Offshore Development Center) approach: a dedicated, fully managed team with integrated project management, technical mentoring, QA, and management oversight. The company emphasizes a single point of contact, flexible ramp-up, and continuity. For turnkey projects, Argusoft uses either agile or waterfall methodology tailored to client needs, performing fit-and-gap analysis, technical design, data modeling, and multiple testing cycles under a designated project manager. The company employs automation tools for bug tracking, document management, collaboration, and QA automation, and adheres to IEEE documentation standards. Pricing is not specified in available materials; interested parties are directed to contact the sales team.
