4D expertise,
built to last.

Everything 4D is a consulting partnership for businesses that run on the 4D platform. We design, build, and maintain the systems your company depends on — and we built our firm so that it will be here as long as you need it.

What we do

Three ways we work with the 4D community.

Consulting & development

New systems, modernization of legacy 4D applications, and integration with the rest of your stack — accounting platforms, CAD systems, web services, warehouse and shipping operations.

Professional training

Structured training for 4D developers and teams — from bringing new developers onto an existing codebase to leveling up experienced staff on modern 4D.

Long-term stewardship

Ongoing maintenance, support, and documentation for the systems we build — and for systems we inherit. We plan for succession from day one.

Why E4D

Built for the long run.

Much of the world's 4D development has historically been done by lone-wolf developers — a single trusted expert who knows the system inside and out. It works beautifully, right up until it doesn't. When that developer retires, or can't continue, the business is left with a critical system and no one who understands it. Some of our clients came to us in exactly that position.

We formed Everything 4D specifically to solve that problem — a partnership deliberately spanning generations, so the firm outlives any one developer.

Our three founders bring complementary careers to the table: decades of 4D development reaching back to the late 1980s, a software business built and run in England, and experience inside one of the largest 4D installations in the world — a multibillion-dollar company that runs its entire operation on the platform. The same platform scales down gracefully: we use 4D to build quickly for small operations, without having to switch tools when a project grows.

We are a new company by incorporation date. We are not new at this.

Client relationships

Measured in decades.

"Waltons Direct have been working with Doug since 1999 when they created our new 4D database that is the main product for our business. It has been great to have Doug and his team available to rectify issues immediately when they occur and they have done this well for the last 26 years — thank you!"
