One of the ways in which Alliedbiztech keeps costs low to use the a library of modules and components that we have built during the course of our work. We also make sure that we use, and also contribute to, some of the best open source software available in the world.
Some of our modules have developed into fully featured software that could be sold in it's own right. However, rather than try to make money managing a software sales company, we would rather make this software available free to our clients and only charge for the customization, enhancement and installation of the software. One of the advantages of this approach is that our customers can continue to benefit from future enhancements without the continuous software upgrade and relicensing costs.
We are currently working on further modules to cover aspects of intranets, project management, customer relationship management, Knowledge Library and online quesstionaires/survey.
Custom Software
Custom software, to make your small business more efficient
Custom software, priced specifically for small businesses
Software solutions, customized for your small business needs
Fast - Affordable - Easier
We're a small business working for small businesses. We can't afford expensive solutions for our company, and neither can you. We understand how small businesses operate and run. Our company has developed automated solutions for common small business tasks such as:
Tracking inventory and/or special parts requests
consolidating information
scheduling equipment and personnel resources
optimizing routes
data entry and re-entry
copying and sending documents and invoices
Since we already have the experience of creating software solutions for small businesses, we can take this work and our knowledge and produce results for you quickly. So why purchase custom software:
Business strategy: you may require a specific solution to cope with your client, supplier and distributor relationships
Internal organization: you may wish to streamline your various internal processes into one main software/database application
Software lifecycle: you may wish to develop software solutions that have a longer lifecycle than off-the-shelf packages with greater flexibility
System integration: you may require compatibility between existing and new applications with a web interface
Most software development specialists advise against custom software because:
Off-the-shelf applications are adequately customizable
The software lifecycle is too short. Custom software lack the resources to cope with it
Developing a custom application costs 30-40% more than an off-the-shelf alternative
Customized Software lack the necessary in-house bespoke software support expertise
Off-the-shelf packages have a familiar user interface, lessening staff training requirements
Bespoke software must be adapted, and can dramatically change an business model
Develop custom software if you:
Can afford a long-term investment
Can't find an off-the-shelf alternative
Can spare adequate development lead-time
Need application specific software
Can rationalize costs
Can increase your company's operational efficiency
