Many of the small businesses out there can work their way around standardized software, available to purchase. But there are companies that would benefit more from having a customized software installed. Let’s check whether this is the case for you too:

Your automation systems need manual workaround

If your business has already adopted technology and the innovative automation solution we now have at our disposal, but there is still need to accompany the software because it doesn’t match your business needs completely, your answer is a customized fix. This can mean a built from the scratch software or modifications to the one you are using now. So it is not even as complicated as it might seem. Just start thinking about the processes in your workflow that could be turned into an automation, instead of an employee, and custom software can make it happen in no time.

Your team is struggling to use the software

If the existing tools are giving your employees a hard time, they’re not a good solution on the long term - it will only increase frustration inside your team and decrease their productivity and motivation rate. Also, if they are taking extra steps in order to avoid using the standard software the company is using, you are basically wasting precious time you could be using to further drive the business.

Your company is using multiple software for a single task

If you’re using a CRM system for your sales process, but you’re still manually adding the information to Excel spreadsheets to create reports, you’re wasting time and human resource. You need a customization in your process, so your team can focus their time onto driving more sales into the automated sales funnel.  

You are planning a system conversion

Is your business planning to switch from one piece of software to a new solution? Moving data can result in losing it, if not converted correctly. In this case, a software customizer is what will save you, by building you a tailored-to-your-needs engine to convert the data you’re transferring.

Scalability

A piece of software might have been productive when you started, but as your business grows, the operations are evolving too, so those same programs might have become outdated for your company. If you are recruiting, think about the tasks you need to hire people for. Could they be solved through an automation system? If the answer is yes, then stop recruiting and start considering a software solution. You can thank us later.

Licensing fees

You might live under the impression that customized software is pricy. FALSE. It might just be less expensive on the long term than paying expensive licensing fees for programs that don't even do the full job and still require the direct implication of your personnel. Custom software development is not a high-end service, on the contrary, it is one of the most cost-effective ones on the market right now.

If any of the above mentioned situations apply to your business, you know what you need to do - level up, allow your business to unlock its full potential. Get automated.
