FAQs

  • What is custom software development?

    +

    Custom software development is the process of designing, developing, implementing, and maintaining software applications for a specific organization. Unlike off-the-shelf software, which is designed for a broad audience, custom software is tailored to meet the unique needs and processes of a specific business.

  • Who needs custom software development?

    +

    Any business or organization with unique operational needs, specific workflows, or a desire for a competitive edge can benefit from custom software development. This includes companies seeking better alternatives to their current systems, aiming to automate specialized processes, or needing to integrate disparate systems.

  • What are some examples of custom software?

    +

    Examples of custom software include:

    • CRM (Customer Relationship Management) systems tailored to a specific sales process
    • ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems designed to integrate a company’s unique departments and functions
    • Inventory management systems optimized for a particular product type or supply chain
    • Specialized data analysis tools for a niche industry
    • Proprietary internal tools to streamline unique business operations
    • Mobile apps developed for a specific business service or customer interaction
  • How is custom software different from buying a product?

    +

    Custom software is a journey and an investment in your future. Rather than buying a pre-made product that you have to fit your business processes into, you will work with a team who will analyze your particular needs and build an entirely new and unique product that leverages the strengths and competitive advantages of your business.

  • What is the biggest custom software buying mistake?

    +

    The biggest mistake is starting a custom software project with a lack of clarity or vision for the project and how it will be used in your business. Creating that shared vision with your project team is vital so they better understand your goals and objectives. This greatly influences success in any software project.

  • Is custom software only for large businesses?

    +

    No—businesses of all sizes and industries can benefit from custom software development. If you struggle with forcing your unique procedures into an out-of-the-box solution, it may be time to consider a custom solution that saves time and costs for your business.

  • What differentiates you from other custom software development companies?

    +

    Our software adoption rate is close to perfect. Our rapid quality development process allows us to create high-quality systems very quickly. We are able to leverage our 25+ years of experience in building custom software to provide innovative solutions to the most challenging business and technology problems.

  • Do you outsource your development?

    +

    No. All members of our software development team are full-time Miles IT employees.

  • Do I own the intellectual property and source code?

    +

    Yes! We provide our services on a work made for hire basis, and you own the custom-built software which is created based on your vision.

  • What software development methodology do you follow?

    +

    We generally follow an agile development process using SCRUM methodologies, with a little special sauce that makes the Miles Software Solution slightly different and better for our customers.

  • What technologies / platforms do you use to build your custom software?

    +

    Most new systems are started with a platform we built ourselves (our Head-Start Framework) that includes a foundation for many aspects of the software. It is built using the most modern web and mobile technologies. We also build new software from the ground-up as needed, and can use just about any technology platform your project warrants.

  • Can you integrate my new custom business software with my other systems?

    +

    Yes!  Read more about how we help with integrations for any system.
