Research (and common sense) shows that high cost is one of the main reasons for the slow adoption of e business software among small and medium-sized business. The benefits of e business software are often clear but the cost of the software provided by the major suppliers - who are used to dealing with big budget customers - is far beyond the typical SME budget.
At Iformis, in order to keep our software as affordable as possible, we keep to the following principles
Keep it Simple - Software can become expensive if the number of features is not carefully controlled. Our aim is to limit the functionality to the key requirements making the software less expensive to produce and maintain.
Ease of Use - Using the high usability standards of web development, we design systems that are easy to use and easy to learn allowing our customers to use our software quickly with minimal (and sometimes no) training.
Standardise - We standardise our software wherever possible. By adapting their working practices to suit the software, our customers can benefit from huge cost savings over bespoke software development.
Standardised software does not, of course, suit every business and for those who need more complex or specialised functions, we can provide bespoke software development. However, the important principle still applies, we develop bespoke software where necessary, whilst providing standardised software where possible.
