What is the point of bespoke software?
To answer this let’s first see what bespoke software is. Bespoke software is a tailormade solution that will follow how the business works so that the business doesn’t have to change the natural work flow.
Advantages and downsides apply to both options. For off-the-shelf solutions:
Advantages
- Instantly available
- Saves time for development and testing
- Cost-effective – initially
Disadvantages
- Time is saved during the building process but lost in learning the software
- Changes the working style of your operations according to the software
- Possible hidden charges which may revealed later
And, for bespoke software:
- Advantages
- Developed according to the client’s specific needs
- Client owns the software and the data
- Expands and changes with client’s business
- Can be built in stages
- Provides client with flexibility and portability
- Disadvantages
- Comparatively takes more time to develop
- Can be costly – initially
So, it really depends on the current stage of the business. If the business is fairly new and doesn’t need many licenses, then off-the-shelf software is a good option to go for. On the other hand, if the business has a lot of people working in it and has outgrown what already tried spreadsheets and off-the-shelf software can do, then that is the stage to look at bespoke software.
