Off the shelf versus bespoke. An introduction to bespoke software development if you are considering a software solution for your business. The good, the bad and hopefully not too ugly. Off the shelf or bespoke. Whichever you choose it needs rolling out to the business. Our software implementation service will take care of both the technical and the human side of that for you.
A helpful account of things to look for and consider when choosing or moving to a new software development company. Of course we hope you will choose Alinea! Many of our bespoke solutions are actually tailored software. We adapt, extend and configure existing software (ours and third party) to fit your unique requirements yet without the expense of ground up building bespoke projects.

New to bespoke software
Report
Off the shelf software appears as a nice easy fix but a one size fits all means you may only fix half your business problem. Going along the bespoke software route can be an unfamiliar or daunting process if it's new to you, however the reality is probably less onerous than you may think. At this stage you have identified a business issue that could be solved by a software solution and have two paths to choose.
Software business implementation service
Report
Off the shelf or bespoke, a new software package needs help to get it integrated and running in the business. It may be that in looking for a solution to a business issue you already know what software products you need or you have decided on having something tweaked to suit your company but that's not the end.
Choosing a new software development company
Report
Locating the right software development company. Of course we would say come straight to Alinea however the truth is there are a number of factors to consider. A bespoke or tailored production can involve a good number of meetings over its development.
If face to face is important to you then you need to choose a provider within easy reach, however if you find a good provider who ticks the boxes on al the other matters but is a distance away perhaps you would be happy with some online meetings also.Alinea is a small company and small companies have advantages and disadvantages, so its honesty time here.

Tailored software – whats the difference
Report
Tailored software is taking a previously developed software package, reworking it and adding in some fresh code to customise it to fit your requirements exactly. As you can imagine this process is hugely time and cost saving and is something we specialise in at Alinea. There are many software products available that have been written by communities of businesses and enthusiast under a no cost share basis called Open Source.
