When you’re looking for a new software solution for your business, it’s tempting to just purchase a ready-made application. After all, shopping around for a software solution can seem time-consuming. And choosing the right application can be overwhelming.
However, there is an easier – and more effective – way to improve your IT framework, and that is through custom software. But how does custom software work, and why is it worth the investment? With over 15 years creating custom software our team of experts has the answers to all your questions - and then some!
Have you ever considered what it would be like to have programs built just for your business? Software that is developed to meet your company’s unique needs and challenges?
Well, that is what you can expect if you choose a custom software solution.
Custom software is a product developed to meet your company’s specific requirements. It is entirely unique to your organization, which is why no two custom software “builds” are the same.
What type of software can you customize? The possibilities are, essentially, endless. Examples of customized application software include:
You can also build custom software by taking an existing CRM, such as Salesforce, and enhancing the basic features.
The alternative to custom software is commercial “off-the-shelf” software.
Off-the-shelf software is produced for the mass market. It is a standardized, ready-made product you can install and run immediately. Examples of off-the-shelf software are:
Off-the-shelf software is designed to cater to various users. However, this does not mean that it will actually meet your needs or align with your business goals. If you find your team trying to figure out a way to use an out of the box software and it just is not cutting it, we can help.
There are various ways to build custom software. The processes can be technical, but the steps usually involve:
Is custom software worth the investment, though? Well, we can’t answer this question for your organization. However, here are six reasons why you should strongly consider implementing custom software in your business.
The benefits don’t get greater than this – your custom software is yours, and yours alone. It is uniquely designed to meet the challenges your business faces. It can help you increase productivity, enhance security, and meet day-to-day business operation pressures with ease.
At Hexagon Solutions we start each custom software project with an in-depth discovery process so we can fully understand your needs. That means we can get granular with the day to day needs of each department and team providing insight into not just what you need to function but tools that you want to make work seamless.
Unlike off-the-shelf products, custom software is scalable as your business evolves. You can adapt every element, from your mobile apps to your CRM, to meet changing market demands.
Don’t let your IT framework hold you back. Invest in a custom software solution designed to support, rather than hinder, growth.
Custom software does not just integrate with your existing workflows. It optimizes them. With a custom software solution, you can:
Our team can ensure that your software solution is fully compatible with your existing framework. Or we can help you design an entirely fresh software solution.
Our specialists are with you every step of the way through the design and implementation process. We are your partners in enhancing your business efficiency.
Sure, custom software development services may seem like an overwhelming expense at first. However, it’s crucial to consider the larger picture.
Do you want software features that your competitors don’t have? Or better yet, features has your team figured out a way to optimize your company’s flow giving your company the edge? Then you need custom software. Not only can you make the system work for you, but you can design it with your customers in mind. You can directly meet their needs through your customized program.
There’s always another side to the story too, think about what your competitors are doing.
Research suggests that over 85% of businesses already use custom software to improve their operations. By not developing your own, unique software solution, you risk placing your business at a disadvantage!
Did you know that network intrusion, or external threats, are some of the biggest security threats to your business? Although off-the-shelf software is designed to be secure, it could still leave you vulnerable. It is not designed with your specific security needs in mind.
Software customization allows you to:
Our development team can design a solution with the right security measures to protect your critical data and assets.
