In the software development market in Shanghai, there are many development companies, there are many choices, but if there are too many choices, problems will naturally arise. What problems should we pay attention to when choosing a software development company?
Next, I will share it with you to avoid detours when you choose.
1. Do things with integrity and reliability
Whether it is a person or a company, the most important thing is to do things reliably, which is also the first consideration in the selection process, otherwise there will be many unsatisfactory things in the cooperation process. For example, the price is low and the price is high, wrong guidance is carried out in pursuit of profits, problems are not solved in time, and the quality of the software produced is poor and does not meet the requirements, etc.
Many people have consulted about contracts and treaties, fearing that there are some unreasonable treaties in the contract, but they are not aware of it. I think the contract is secondary. In a humane society like China, the contract is not very restrictive to Party B, and the litigation process is long and cumbersome. The core key point lies in the reliability of Party B. Even if the problem is outside the scope of the contract, a reliable service provider will try its best to help Party A solve the problem.
2. Actively communicate with customers
In the process of cooperation, the most important thing is communication. No matter in the early demand understanding stage, in the development process, or in the after-sales stage after the development is completed, any problems should be communicated at any time. Especially in the early stage of demand communication, most of the customers’ needs are not clearly expressed, and there may be a lot of misunderstandings between the two parties. At this time, the software outsourcing service provider needs to actively communicate with customers, understand customer needs, and solicit customer opinions. After full communication , the software made can finally meet the customer’s expectations.
3. Emphasis on requirements design and testing
A complete development process is not only technology, but also product, design, testing and other links. Usually the two most important links are design and testing. Design determines the use process and presentation effect of the project, and testing determines the final quality of the project. , stability and practical experience. If there are serious problems in the design and testing process of the project, it will definitely have a great impact on the final project quality and effect.
Often the workload of design and testing accounts for more than 1/3 of the overall workload in order to basically guarantee the delivery effect. Most of the failed projects we encounter are caused by the failure of product and testing work.
Outsourcing development companies need to have many capabilities, such as business docking ability, demand sorting ability, business understanding ability, product logic ability, UI design ability, technology development ability, project management ability, quality control testing ability . Generally, there are no companies that can cover everything, but those who report a lot of design and testing work in the inquiry form and follow up with Party A to confirm the design during the implementation process are often truly reliable companies.
