LICENSING
When Datapro develops customized software for its clients, the client takes full ownership of the resulting solution including all of the underlying programming code.
As the business grows, new users can be added without incurring additional licensing fees. In addition, the company is not bound to costly support agreements that provide little added benefit.
Since the company owns a copy of the code, they are not bound to any one particular service provider for future development. In the event that the company establishes internal support capabilities, the continued development of the software can also be brought in-house.
SUPPORT
A custom software developer usually develops a close relationship with a limited number of clients in a relatively small area, while off-the-shelf software vendors tend to have large, geographically scattered client bases.
During the custom software design phase, a strong relationship develops between the client and the developer, as the developer gains the in-depth understanding of the client's business that is necessary to create a solution that meets the unique requirements of the organization.
This close relationship allows for the hands-on, responsive support that is crucial to ensuring the continued return on a company's technology investment.
