The main goal of any business is to make a profit. This truth is obvious and known to all entrepreneurs. One of the main ways is to reduce the cost of production, i.e., to reduce costs.
The more money we can save, the better. In our opinion, the best way is to automate routine and repetitive operations. Since ancient times, man has invented devices to reduce the share of manual labor.
Thus came the wheel, the steam engine, transistors and microchips. But as the complexity of technology increases, so does the responsibility for its proper operation. Therefore, to manage some complex systems, man came up with another – the software.
For a business to make money (reduce costs) on software it must solve one of the following tasks:
- completely eliminate routine manual labor (e.g., emailing documents);
- speed up the process of operations (e.g., using a robotic arm to assemble individual assemblies versus screwdriver assembly);
- eliminate time delays between operations (for example, the program waits for the operator to perform a series of actions and update the files processed by another program).
- Using software in business is not a tribute to fashion, it is a necessity, because if your business is faster and more accurate than competitors, then you can get ahead of them and customers will come to you again. Saving the time of your clients you thus show that you respect them, and they understand it perfectly and will surely come to you again.
The main problem of customers of software development is the lack of understanding that complex software requires a lot of money and time, we are well aware of that and due to our working methods we are effectively using the resources provided to us.
