# Troubleshooting

Independent help to overcome challenges with your software project

## Has your software project hit a roadblock?

Sometimes you need an experienced outsider — someone independent from your current team and suppliers — to bring a fresh, unbiased perspective.

Use a consulting CTO to help you overcome the challenges with your software project and become self-sufficient in managing your technology.

## Case study: [Patent Seekers](https://patentseekers.com/gb/)

We thought we were going to have to scrap our [database](https://patworld.com/us/ "PatWorld patent intelligence platform") after 18 months of work and over £1M invested in the project. We contacted Solviq as a last resort. Following the support and advice from [Steve](/content/people/steve-talbot "Steve Talbot: Consulting CTO"/index.html), we managed to rescue the whole thing, allowing us to develop and scale at a fraction of the cost. I strongly recommend any organisation looking to develop an SaaS website to not make the same mistake we did and get Solviq in at the beginning of the project.
