Our Software Customization Process

Whether you’re looking to create a new customized software program or you want to revamp the one you currently have, Wise Technology is your partner in software solutions. Here are the stages of our custom software development process.
Stages of the Custom Software Development Process
To create a successful, custom software application, you and your team will need to work your way through the different software development process steps. By successfully completing each step of the process, you can ensure you’ll receive software that meets and exceeds your goals.
Planning
Brainstorming and planning should always be the first step in your custom software development process. Not only does there need to be an idea, but there also needs to be a structured, well-thought-out plan for how to approach your software development.
Planning sets the stage for the remaining phases in your development process. In the planning stage, you should strategize how you plan on meeting business objectives, and it’s a great time to consider resource availability, potential financial issues, and your timeline.
Analysis
During this phase of the software development life cycle, the scope of the project should be detailed, and you will need to determine if it’s feasible. A clean code and an engaging design aren’t enough to carry out the software product. It’s crucial to assess the product you have in mind with a development team to understand the project’s goal better and collect all the necessary materials. A feasibility analysis is conducted during this stage. The analysis aims to determine all the technical and financial aspects that may impact the development process. This includes:
- Time
- Resources
- Tasks
- Involvement
If the software isn’t declared feasible, then it could negatively impact your company’s ROI. In addition to the feasibility analysis, a business requirements analysis is also conducted to identify risks in the software development process. This ensures that if the project has any kinks, they can be resolved without adjusting the development timeline.
Design
The process of designing your software is a critical component of the product’s development. During this phase, your software ideas are put into action. Your development team implements the custom software design, and it sets the stage for how your product will turn out. It offers a clear depiction of how your overall software solution will be structured and utilized by users. Finally, a final mockup is produced and used for the remaining stages in the development process.
In the design process, the functionality of the custom software is also determined. Here, you define the fundamental components and software tools needed for future development and determine its structural capabilities.
Development and Implementation
The development and implementation phase focuses on coding and converting the design into the program. The development phase is generally the longest because it acts as the backbone of the software development process.
In this stage, there are various aspects your developers need to pay attention to. Your development team needs to ensure their codes meet software requirement specifications and conforms to the stakeholders’ requirements.
Testing and Integration
After the software is designed and built, it’s time to start testing and integrating the new program. In the testing phase, quality assurance (QA) specialists conduct functionality tests, system integration, interoperability, and user acceptance testing to ensure the program code is clean and business goals are met.
In the integration stage, the new software is installed into your company’s technology. This ensures that data and software components are transferred easily. Depending on the project’s complexity, it may be a straightforward process; however, it may take longer for more complex software systems. After integration, the custom software is available for users to function.
Maintenance
Maintenance is the final stage of the software development life cycle; this includes routine maintenance and regular updates for the program. This phase requires the most attention because, although it’s live and available for use, issues may occur, and it’s important to catch them before the software shuts down completely.
