Good software helps you hit business goals: revenue growth, customer loyalty, compliance, security.
Fast and easy to use software has higher ROI.
When software is well-designed, reliable, and enjoyable to use, users will gladly make it a part of their work routine.
Unfortunately, bad software is quite common.
Slow, difficult software - the kind that isn’t enjoyable to use. Long delays when you click - frequently used features which are hard to access.
Such software is not seen as a help, but a hindrance - and people do their best to work around it. Often, this means shadow IT - using Google Sheets, Excel, Airtable, and other solutions to track workflows and data.
However, these adhoc solutions are often of poor quality - and typically emphasize an employees view of a situation, rather than a higher level executive or strategic view. Time spent maintaining systems like this is time that isn’t spent achieving company goals.
How do you know when your internal software is a problem?
Software should support your business processes - not the other way around.
Workarounds: Does your staff have a list of workarounds because your software does not work right? If so, they are not alone - a lot of people are in that situation. We can fix your backend so that it just works right.
Expensive Changes: Are changes to your software hard or impossible? Are you able to change your software when business needs change? When someone says, “it’d be great if the software did this or that”, do you just add it to a list somewhere, or can you make it happen?
Bad Reporting: Does everyone know what they need to know, or do people miss important information? Are people creating separate spreadsheets just to track what they need to do their job?
Better Backend Means Better Software
Lose the Bloat: Too much fat can be bad for the human heart - and too much data is bad for your database. Many companies leave databases bloated with unnecessary data - storing data for features you don’t use, for jobs that were finished long ago, and for customers who aren’t buying.
Results, Not Smoke: It doesn’t have to be that way, though. Too many software agencies focus everything on the features that make sales - filling up a list of features, making some great videos and screenshots, but not actually making great software.
We Do The Hard Work: The really, really hard part of software - the backend - is difficult to sell, because its difficult to understand. Unfortunately, many companies ignore it. Even worse, because it is also hard to learn, many people don’t want to put in the work to learn the really difficult parts of computer programming.
That’s not us, though: we’re Durable Programming, and we specialize in the tough stuff.
