So What Is Custom Software?
Everythign you want and nothing you don't.
Custom software isn’t like the business, taxation and other programs you can buy in a store or online. Whether you pay less than $50 for it, or into the millions, it’s still written for a wide variety of users. And at the high-end, you’ll probably pay more than twice that sum. Because you pay for the software itself, an annual licensing and/or maintenance fee, and specialized consultants to install the software and train your people, all without outfitting your business with a package that suits its exact requirements.
Custom software doesn’t come in a box from a store or an online download. What’s more, it isn’t meant to be most things to all companies. Instead, it’s developed to be everything for your company and your company alone.
