Custom Business Software

Custom software is different than "shrink wrapped" software. Custom software is designed with you in mind; it is built to fit into your culture and support your business processes and workflow.

Our approach to building custom business software is to work closely with your key personnel to identify the needs in your organization and to determine whether or not custom software can solve your problems.

Our client base is a healthy mix of all types of businesses from entrepreneurs starting out in business to regional and national notables.  No organization is too large or small to benefit from custom business software development.

Why choose custom software to grow my business? Ironically, "out-of the box" software is anything but "out of the box." It's "junk food" for business applications: pre-packaged, generic, conformist, one-size-fits-all. Are those terms you use to describe your company? Of course not! So why use software that's not tailor-made for your needs?

That's where World Wide Web Communications comes in. Our core programming specialties cover every phase of business including:

  • E-commerce and business solutions
  • Corporate intranets and extranets
  • Content management
  • Third party systems integration
  • Customer relationship management (CRM)
  • Knowledge management and business intelligence
  • Document management
  • Project management

 

 

 

 

 

 

What makes your custom applications and web-based solutions different? Unlike the pre-packaged software giants, we take time to actually talk with you. Seem simple? You'd be surprised how many custom software and web-based solutions companies don't do this. We work with you to find out what your individual needs are, what problems and issues you have to deal with, what's not working and how to fix it. Beyond that, we figure out what custom software development you need to grow your business, to make it better, stronger, faster. And, most important, we can give you a fixed price that's within your budget.

How does your development process work? Another area where we stand out from the crowd is that we communicate with you during the entire process, from start to finish.

Pre-packaged vs. Custom Software

If you are in the market for new business software, you should know that there are a couple of options to choose from. Generally speaking, you can either purchase a pre-packaged software solution, or you can hire a software developer who can create a custom application. As you can imagine, both solutions offer advantages and disadvantages. As a consumer with specific goals, you need to know the differences between these two options, and then decide which solution will best fit your needs. Your first option, pre-packaged software, is just what its name indicates. These programs are available to the general public for general use, and are created for commonly performed tasks. They are not tailored to suit a business' specific needs. One benefit of buying pre-packaged software is that you can assume that it works well for its intended purpose, and that its features are well tested. A second benefit is that pre-packaged software, in most cases, is not going to cost nearly as much as having a custom application developed. On the down side of things, since you are buying only what is pre-packaged and pre-build, you may not have the specific feature set that your business requires. On the other hand, custom software applications also offer many benefits. The biggest and most obvious one being that you will be able to work with your software developer to build exactly what your business application requires. When you buy into custom software development, the application will be yours alone and will be made to suit your specific needs. But as mentioned above, to have an application that offers exactly what you require, you are going to have to pay a premium price. Both types of software are valuable for businesses. For common routines performed by many businesses, buying software off the shelf may be the best way to go. But when your business needs specific actions and results, you need to consider a custom software application.
