Custom software development Benefits

Full Ownership

All the rights are yours and yours only, meaning you can deploy and employ your bespoke software as you see fit. With Megadevelopers you'll have full ownership of your software from start.

Efficiency

Custom software is fully-tailored to support processes swiftly and productively, so there is no need to adjust and spend time on off-the-shelf applications.

Scalability

Custom software can grow and change alongside your business. Designers and developers can assess future needs as part of their requirements gathering. These factors can then be incorporated into the application, rather than incurring costs by purchasing additional licenses or subscriptions of packaged applications.

Lower integration costs

One of the main considerations of commercial software is: will it work with existing and legacy applications? If the answer is no, organizations face a further investment in getting commercial software to communicate and operate with their existing infrastructure. Custom software can be built to integrate with its intended environment.

Profitability

It’s possible to profit from custom software development. Depending on the terms, conditions of the project and software development methodologies, businesses that develop their own software may own the software and therefore be able to license or sell it to other organizations.

Independence

With custom software development you will not be dependant on any third-party vendors. so you won't be getting stuck maintaining packaged software should the vendor go out of business or terminate a product.

effective custom software development

To reach the most effective bespoke software development you should consider these:

Build vs buy

Be sure about build vs buy, the first key to an effective custom software development project is making sure that custom software is truly needed, as opposed to buying a packaged solution.

 

 

Packaged solutions are ready to use as soon as installation is complete but these two solutions have a considerable gap in terms of functionalities, usability and performance.

Collaboration

If the decision is to build, an important initial consideration is to ensure that all participants communicate and collaborate on the project. Collaborators include sponsors, users, software developers, even customers and business partners outside of the organization.

 

 

In this context, collaboration means business users working together on requirements, sharing knowledge among global development teams, and working hand-in-hand across development and operations teams to improve quality and responsiveness.

One of the critical outcomes of collaboration is a clear, shared vision for what are software requirements, we have to define and manage these requirements closely so this stage needs a great deal of diligence.

Business needs and requirements

These requirements will ensure meeting customer needs, while addressing compliance and staying on schedule and lower custom software development cost and potentially will cause delivery of higher and faster ROI (Return on Investment)

 
  • Correct (technically and legally possible)
  • Complete (expresses a whole idea or statement)
  • Clear (unambiguous and not confusing)
  • Consistent (not in conflict with other requirements)
  • Verifiable (can be determined that the application meets the requirement)
  • Traceable (uniquely identified and tracked)
  • Feasible (can be accomplished within cost and schedule)
  • Modular (can be changed without excessive impact)
  • Design independent (does not impose specific solutions on design).

Methodologies, technologies and practices

With requirements defined — and they will likely change more than once — applying mature, modern software development methodologies and practices can help deliver effective, even innovative, software efficiently and rapidly.

 
  • Agile development 
  • Rapid application development (RAD)
  • Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe)
  • Sales & marketing automation
  • Risk management
  • Compliance management
  • Document management
  • Open source 
  • Cloud-based development

Outsourcing software development can help

Software Development Outsourcing describes an arrangement, in which an organization chooses to hire an external software development agency to effectively carry out all the tasks of a software development project, that could be done in-house instead. Software outsourcing is about the practice of a company handing over the control of a certain business process or project to a third-party vendor that is qualified and capable of handling the required business tasks.

outsourcing software development main advantages includes:

  • Faster Deployment when you decide to use software outsourcing companies and more specifically an offshore software development company you can work on your project 24/7 and this will exponentially increase the development speed and therefore reduces the deployment and deadline times.
  • Cost reduction: by employing an offshore software development company you can reduce the costs of staff employment and equipment and thus you’ll experience faster ROI and then you can spend time on innovation.
  • Using industry-specific experts usually offshore software development companies such as MegaDevelopers provides you with industry-specific experts which will recognize and analyze your business even further.
  • Consultancy and solutions software development companies such as MegaDevelopers provides consultancy for each step of the way and we often suggest solutions that would tailor your ideas even more

    FAQ

    The biggest reason for developing custom software is your company wants to own the solution. Businesses can operate the software functions, data, developing methodologies, etc. With customized software, businesses can make changes anytime they want, add important information and implement feedback from customers.

    The only disadvantage of custom software development is the upfront costs given the level of customization. If it is possible to use Off-The-Shelf software you can do that with much lower costs.

    • make sure of build vs buy
    • make sure everyone involved in the project is on-board with it.
    • determine business needs and requirements
    • choose and find your most preferable methodologies and technologies

    2. Business analysis
    3. UI design/ prototyping

    5. Testing
    6. Deployment
    7. Maintenance and support
    8. Continuous application support(on demand)

    Depending on your project: ask is there already a packaged solution that delivers these functionalities:

    • Support or automate unique business processes and transactions
    • Handle information and data specific to an industry or line of business
    • Meet unique privacy or security requirements
    • Facilitate integration with legacy applications and data
    • Replace or help consolidate existing solutions at lower cost
    • Replace or help consolidate existing solutions to achieve greater productivity
    • Enable new opportunities or improve competitive advantage
    • Grow and adapt to changing requirements.

    If you did your research and couldn’t find such software packages then you should think about bespoke software solution.

    We would set a time in our contract( usually 1-3 months) to :

    • Answers your and users’ questions, resolves user issues (if any).
