Calgary web design focused on what actually matters: websites that work for small businesses, at prices that make sense, from a team that actually cares.

We started Sunstone Soft because we saw a gap in the Calgary market. On one side, big agencies charge $5,000-15,000 for websites that small businesses don't need. On the other, offshore freelancers deliver template sites with no local support. Neither serves the typical Calgary small business well.
Most small businesses need something in between: a professional website that represents them well, built by people who understand their needs, at a price that doesn't break the bank. That's what we do.
We're not trying to be everything to everyone. We focus on small businesses in Calgary and the surrounding area. We build websites that compete with anyone's, fast enough that you're not waiting months, and affordable enough that the investment makes sense.
When you work with us, you work with the people building your site. No layers of account managers, no junior developers you've never met, no passing your project around. That means clearer communication, faster decisions, and a team that's accountable for the result.
We think small businesses deserve better than what most of them are getting. That's why we do this.
The principles behind how we work.
What you get working with Sunstone Soft.
How we think about web design for small businesses.
Before anything else, we get clear on your business and what you're trying to accomplish.
What's your goal? Who are your customers? What would success look like? This shapes everything we build.
We tell you what we think you need—which sometimes is less than you were planning to spend.
We'd rather build the right thing than sell you more than you need. That builds trust and referrals.
We work efficiently to deliver quality without unnecessary delays or costs.
No bloated timelines, no features you won't use. Focused execution on what matters.
After launch, we stay available for questions, updates, and future needs.
Your website isn't done when it launches. We're here for the long haul.
We keep the team small on purpose—it lets us provide better service at lower cost. No bloated overhead, no bureaucracy, no message lost between five layers of staff. When you hire us, you get our full attention and a clear point of contact.
For larger projects that benefit from extra expertise, we bring in trusted specialists we've worked with for years. But for most small business websites, a tight team working directly with you is the most efficient approach.
Benefits of working with a small, focused web studio.
No agency overhead means we charge less while still doing great work. The savings get passed to you.
No committees, no approval chains, no waiting for someone to get back to someone. Quick responses.
A small team means no finger-pointing. If something's wrong, we fix it. Our reputation is on every project.
You're not handed off to whoever's free that week. Same people, same standards, every time.
No rigid corporate processes. We adapt to what works for each client and project.
We actually know our clients. You're not a number or a ticket. Real relationship, real care.
Sunstone Soft started from a simple observation: small businesses in Calgary were being underserved by the web design market.
Big agencies wanted big budgets for features small businesses didn't need. DIY website builders left people fighting tools that didn't quite work. Offshore freelancers were cheap but offered no local support. None of these options were great for a local restaurant, contractor, or professional service firm that just wanted a solid website.
We saw a chance to do something different: professional-quality websites at reasonable prices, with local service and ongoing support. No fancy office, no sales team, no account managers—just quality work at fair prices.
The name 'Sunstone' comes from a mineral that catches light from different angles, each one revealing something new. That's how we approach web design: looking at your business from a few angles to understand what you really need, instead of dropping you into a template.
Today we work with small businesses throughout Calgary and the surrounding communities. Every project is a chance to help a local business succeed online—and that's genuinely rewarding work.
