Frequently Asked Questions
How does the flexibility of custom software development differ from the limitations of off-the-shelf software?
Custom software allows for adjustments and scalability as your business evolves, while off-the-shelf software may have fixed features that cannot be modified.
What factors influence the timeline for custom software development?
The timeline for custom software development is influenced by various factors, including the project’s complexity, the size of the development team, the clarity of requirements, and the technologies used.
What are the steps involved in custom software development?
The custom software development process typically involves several key steps, including requirement gathering, planning, design, development, testing, and deployment.
Which cooperation model is best suited for custom software development?
Selecting the right cooperation model for custom software development largely depends on your project’s scope and the degree of flexibility you need.
The time and materials (T&M) model provides the adaptability to accommodate changes, making it ideal for projects with uncertain or evolving requirements. Conversely, the fixed price model offers more predictability regarding costs and timelines, making it suitable for projects with a well-defined scope. However, this model allows for less flexibility, which may result in renegotiations if changes are needed.
