Things You Should Do And Shouldn’t Do In Custom Software Development

Software development companies experience more failures than successes, even when it is labeled as unique. This phenomenon makes it very important that your project is carefully planned and well-executed. With many years of experience in MedDev soft as a custom software developer, we have put together especially for you a list of things you should and should not do in a custom software development company.

6 Reasons Why Custom Software Is Necessary for Your Success: 

Custom software meets specific business requirements unique to businesses. It helps companies gain a competitive edge and leverage the software, which is essential to the account, and here are other points that will help provide the necessary edge in favor of software development.

1. Need for Solutions Adjustments: Because custom applications are developed with your specifications in mind, the final solution will provide an effective solution to your needs. Therefore, it simplifies the whole business process and saves time and effort.

2. Minimal training: Customized features make it easy to use and require minimal training to use the software. When the software is customized, the interface requirements will customize the interface requirements to your customers’ needs and skill level.

3. Works with your business model: Because the custom solution is built around your business model, it will have user roles and interoperable functions to function effectively.

4. Unique code and enhanced protection: By developing unique code specific to your software, custom software minimizes external threats and unauthorized access.

5. Long-term cost advantages: Custom software eliminates the licensing costs that accrue with off-the-shelf solutions.

6. Increased scalability: Custom software developers who work on a long-term basis can easily enlarge and adapt the software according to business development.

Things you should do and should not do in Custom Software Development

There are several critical steps involved in creating custom software. It consists of a combination of foresight and creativity.

Pre-Planning for Custom Software Development:

Don’t: Do not Ignore Preparation.

Clients looking for a quick solution for their app requirements usually hire developers who agree to unreasonable deadlines. Under such circumstances, the planning and research step is often ignored, and that has a ripple effect on the following stages. Not acquiring the necessary materials from the beginning can leave the company unprepared. Skipping this step can lead to additional changes, and the timeline for your project will have to be pushed back, not to mention escalating the costs involved.

Do: Plan & Prepare.

The planning stage is crucial because it allows the developer to do a thorough SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) of the idea. Some have found it helpful to include sketches or outlines and functionality options of the application. It works best to gather all the necessary information at the earliest stage to ensure your project stays on budget. Applying this step allows the project to stay on schedule.

First, Ensure its Customization:

Don’t: Create for Yourself

You must have heard of the False Consensus Effect, where one thinks that others also feel the same way he/she thinks. A thing that can happen while designing the app. It is easy to put our ideas into a design and expect others to like it because we liked it. That works contrary to the thought of customization.

Do: Keep it User-Centered

Consider carefully what the general user would appreciate. Developers must stick to the requirements drawn up at the planning stage while continuing to give their inputs on the initial ideas. Take pride in creating a user-centered app.

Technical Feasibility and Prototype

Don’t: Allow Misunderstandings

Misunderstanding the business’ requirements, miscommunication about the platform and the format can lead to significant issues in creating the app.

Do: Keep Lines of Communication Open

Actively communicate with the team about the technical requirements and provide a timeline for building the prototype. It is not easy to visualize what an app would look like and how it will function unless there is a prototype. Ensure that you frequently communicate with management and obtain feedback at every stage of the development.

Design and Development

Don’t: Ignore Key Requirements

Web Design and Web development are the stages that take the most amount of time. Ignoring essential requirements might lead developers to spend valuable time coding for a bad end-product. Functionality demands might be misread, which leads to a loss of time and missed deadlines.

Do: Understand the Needs

It is vital to understand the UI/UX needs of the business to gain clarity and minimize work. The app will go through a lot of different changes. When changes are required, ensure that the development team and management are on the same page. Once decisions are made, stick to them.

QA TESTING

Don’t: Be Negligent

The testing team should not be negligent towards post-development issues such as bugs, form functionalities, and security licenses. This could negatively impact the launch of the application. It could either be delayed, or the app might face a post-launch backlash. Ensure that the app is not launched until all aspects have been tested and up to the required standards.

Do: A thorough QA Test.

App testing is a tedious job, but it is a crucial final stage. Compatibility, interface, security, and performance are factors that should go through a rigorous check. Remember, after this happens with the app will be in full public view.

Meddev soft’s primary goal is to make sure you will follow all the proper steps to achieve Efficiency and Growth with Custom Software Development.

MedDev Soft saves time and costs in the long run when customizing your software. It meets the needs of the company while allowing the business to grow without being limited.
