The problem

Most Kintone projects stall after the licence is bought

Kintone is a powerful platform — but a platform doesn't deploy itself. Without a partner who knows both Kintone and how Philippine businesses actually run, implementations drift.

01
DIY builds stall
A busy admin starts building, gets pulled onto other work, and the rollout quietly dies after one half-finished app.
02
No clear scope
"We'll figure it out as we go" turns into months of rework, unclear ownership, and a system nobody trusts.
03
Adoption never happens
Apps get built but staff keep using Excel — because no one trained the team or designed around how they actually work.
How edamame implements Kintone

A proven four-step implementation, run with your team

We don't hand you a login and disappear. We work alongside your people so the system fits your operation — and so your team can own it after we're done.

🔍
1 · Discovery
We map your real workflows — approvals, hand-offs, the spreadsheets people actually live in — and agree the scope and a fixed quote before any build starts.
✏️
2 · Design
We design the apps, fields, permissions, and connections around how your team works — in English, Filipino, or Japanese — not around a generic template.
🛠️
3 · Build
Your first app goes live fast — usually within the first week or two — then we expand app by app, connected on one platform. No big-bang rollout.
🚀
4 · Launch & enable
We train your team to build and maintain apps themselves, then stay one message away as you grow into the system — same-day support, local timezone.

Need logic beyond no-code, or want your team to run it themselves? See Kintone customization and Kintone training.

Common questions

Questions before your consultation

How long does a Kintone implementation take in the Philippines?
Most first apps go live within the first week or two of your consultation. A simple single-app rollout can be days; a connected multi-app system typically takes 2–4 weeks using our Discovery → Design → Build → Launch process. We start small and expand, so you see value fast instead of waiting months for a big-bang go-live.
What does a Kintone implementation cost?
Implementation is priced by scope, never by the hour — so you get one fixed quote before you commit, with no open-ended consultant clock. The right scope depends on how many workflows you're digitizing and how connected they need to be. Book a free consultation for a fixed quote tailored to your team.
Do we need our own developers or IT team?
No. Kintone is a no-code platform, and edamame handles the implementation. Guhring Philippines built 20+ apps with a single trained employee and zero coding. If you later need custom logic, we provide JavaScript and REST API customization — but most businesses never need a developer.
What happens after the apps go live?
We train your team to build and maintain apps themselves, then stay available for same-day support in your timezone. You own the system — we're a partner, not a dependency. Many clients keep expanding their Kintone footprint app by app long after launch.
Why use edamame instead of implementing Kintone ourselves?
Cybozu builds Kintone; edamame makes it work inside your business. We're the official Kintone partner in the Philippines and the winner of the 2024 Cybozu Global Award — Asia (sole Asia-region recipient), with local, trilingual implementation hands in Metro Manila. You get a scoped plan, a fixed quote, and accountability a DIY rollout can't give you.
