1.         5 Advantages of a  TailorMade  Software in Times  of Crisis                                   

2.   These days, it’s impossible to think about the success of a business without having                             the right tools and technologies to back it up. In these difficult times, it is more                                 than ever essential to ensure that the tools you use daily support you rather than                               hinder you. It’s time to take a step back to find out where your business is and act                                     on it.    If we have to find a positive side to this crisis, it is because it has enabled us to see                                         the various areas for possible improvement in our companies. Take advantage of                         this experience to move up a gear. When others are happy with generic solutions                             available on subscription or some fee, dare to invest in a solution that fits your                               business, not the other way around.        Indeed, limiting yourself to the generic tools available on the market serves you                           above all for that: to limit yourself. To stand out and stay ahead of the competition,                                 you need more: you need better.    Your business is unique, and so are the processes that make it run: it’s time to                                 consider personalized solutions    1 

3.   Finding and choosing the right tools to help you run the operational side of your                               business should not be taken lightly. Operationally speaking, a good choice of                         software should be based mainly on the following criteria:    ● Integrate perfectly with the processes in place,  ● Respond to your specific needs,  ● Be flexible,  ● Provide quality technical assistance,  ● Be up to date.    Why Avoid Generic Solutions?  Generic software is designed to meet the needs of the greatest number of users.                             Thus, they offer standard functionalities which cover most of the missions of                         companies in general. However, what can be their strength in certain situations                         turns out to be their greatest flaw too.    Indeed, being standardized, they do not take into account the specificities inherent                         to your business. As a result, even with a multitude of built-in functionalities, this                             standard software cannot effectively meet certain specific, but vital, needs of your                         business.    A Tailor-Made Software Solution: What is it?  Custom software is one that is specially designed to respond to the issues that may                               arise in your business. With this type of software, you are sure to have a tool that                                   adapts very well to the specifics of your business, because it meets your precise                             needs and integrates perfectly with the processes you already have in place.    This is guaranteed by the fact that the development of this type of software follows                               precise specifications in order to meet the specific needs of your business.                         2 

4.   Acquiring this type of software provides significant benefits for your business in the                           long run.    Performance, efficiency, and flexibility, these are the main advantages of having a                         tailor-made software solution at your disposal.    Break the Limits  If everyone uses the same things, everyone caps the same. ​Tailor-made development makes it possible to push back this barrier. As a simple illustration,                                                 imagine a ready-to-wear suit and a suit made to measure by a tailor. Which of the                                 two will be the best fit in the end?    The 5 Advantages of Tailor-Made Software in Times of                   COVID-19  While it is important to have high-performance, efficient and flexible tools in                         normal times, it is even more so in times of crisis. There is no doubt that to                                   withstand the upheavals as seriously as they are unpredictably caused by a crisis                           such as COVID, your company must know how to respond quickly and effectively to                             the various challenges it will have to face.    Custom software has several advantages that will help your business weather a                         crisis like this better than others and position it favorably in the post-crisis world.    Quickly Adjust to the New Reality Imposed by the Crisis  The scalability of a tailor-made application ensures that it perfectly responds to the                           various upheavals caused by a given context, in this case, a crisis. In contrast,                             3 

5.   generic applications are more or less static and require the companies that develop                           them to update them to be able to adapt to the situation.    With a tailor-made solution, you have access to an on-demand development team                         who can quickly deliver essential changes to you to adapt to each situation. You will                               have updates, enhancements, and security fixes to your software quickly to meet                         the constraints of a crisis. Otherwise, you would have to wait for feedback from the                               developers of standard software and expose yourself to avoidable risks in the                         meantime.    More Possibilities for Automating Your Processes  The automation of manual or semi-manual processes is an important issue for                         modern business. Having a tailor-made software solution can address this issue                       more effectively, as it gives you more leeway than generic software. A tailor-made                           application being customizable, you have control over the implementation of a                       centralized process which will aim to eliminate all the still manual or semi-manual                           steps.    More automated processes give you:    ● A gain in performance and efficiency on important but time-consuming                     tasks,  ● A saving of time that you can allocate to other equally important missions,  ● Less risk of errors,  ● A solution to the shortage of labor-work that currently exists, etc.    Thus, you will, among other things, be able to increase your productivity and                           optimize your income accordingly.    4 

6.   Seize Opportunities: React Quickly via the Development               Firm  With bespoke ​software development​, you have more flexibility to implement new ideas as soon as the opportunity arises. You can adapt your tools to integrate                                                   perfectly with the new processes you want to put in place. Conversely, a generic                             solution requires you to adjust your strategies and processes to it.    In other words, you have a lot of latitudes to seize opportunities as they arise and                                 let you focus on implementing the strategies and processes to make them happen.    Achieve an Advantage in Times of Crisis by Continuing to                     Operate  By having custom software developed, you have a significant competitive                     advantage, because your company is the only one to benefit from its advantages.                           This is not the case with generic software that everyone can adopt. The biggest                             disadvantage of the latter is that if it ever fails, everyone who uses it fails with it.    You can avoid this and keep your business going by opting for a personalized                             solution that keeps you active, while others experience downtime that will                       negatively impact their bottom line.    Have Reliable Technical Support at All Times  To stay competitive and stay ahead of the competition, you need to have reliable                             technical support at all times. Having the assurance that your tools won’t fail, or                             that worries will be quickly resolved if they ever do, will allow you to focus on your                                   core business and growing your business.    5
