Spending Too Much Time and Money on Software Development?

Let us know if this rings a bell.



While you initially had a great relationship with your current software development company; lately, they’ve become complacent. When you ask for feature updates, they’re either late or non-existent, and bugs that are taking a huge bite out of your employees’ productivity always seem to be someone else’s responsibility. When development does happen, poor estimating and missed deadlines create cost overruns that place you and your business under financial stress.



And yet their invoices always seem to arrive on time …

“At Mantrax, we’re not just another software development company. Our clients consistently tell us we stand out from the crowd in the software development space for the following reasons:

  • Your idea, your IP
  • Uber focus on transparency
  • Agile done right
  • Continuous leadership: The person you meet with during project discovery will be the same person leading your project from start to finish. No surprises, no handoffs – just consistent, expert guidance.
  • Product guarantee: We’re so confident in our work that we back it with a guarantee. If you’re not satisfied, we’ll work with you to make it right.

 

Lastly, we only partner with clients who share our values. When we work together, we’re not just building software – we’re building a partnership that’s based on mutual respect, trust, and a shared vision for success.”

Legacy Application Modernization

Join us for a 30-minute webinar where we'll share expert insights on how to evaluate the health of your legacy applications and create a structured discovery process that lays the groundwork for a successful legacy modernization roadmap. Learn how to assess, prioritize, and plan for modernization journey that meets your organization's unique needs.

FAQ on Custom Software Development

What is custom software development?

Custom software development involves creating functionality or a complete application tailored to meet the unique requirements of an organization. It will support functionality which cannot be satisfied by off-the-shelf software. Or developing it on low code / no code platforms could result in going deep inside the vendor rabbit hole or limiting scalability.  Custom software development process may include developing software from the ground up, adding customization to existing software to align with an organization's needs, or modernizing a legacy application. Custom software development encompasses a wide range of activities, including understanding business requirements, designing solution architecture, full stack development, mobile app development, database design, cloud services, and integration with other technologies.

Why does the cost of custom software development range so widely?

The cost of software development depends on factors such as project complexity, scope, required developer experience, team size, technology stack, integration needs, testing protocols, security requirements, regulatory compliance, and project management timelines.

Accurately estimating the cost of a custom software development project requires considering all relevant factors. Otherwise, project scope and budget can easily expand once the project begins.

We understand the importance of upfront budget clarity. That's why we've streamlined our estimation process into two steps:

  • Preliminary Estimate: After an initial discovery and scope understanding, we provide a preliminary project estimate based on our experience with similar projects.
  • Statement of Work (SOW): If the preliminary estimate meets expectations, we recommend generating a detailed SOW. This includes a comprehensive outline of requirements, functional specifications, feature list, technology stack, timelines, and resources. The SOW process confirms the budget, identifies contingencies, and sets the project up for success from the start.
What are the benefits of custom software development?

Flexibility is probably the most important benefit of going the custom development route. You can build a system composed of loosely coupled components which can be independently modified, swapped, decommissioned and redeveloped. Other benefits include: 

  1. Reduction in licensing costs (think Open Source) 
  2. Choice of technology stack
  3. Development in Phases (MVP first, advanced features as permissible by budget) 
  4. Improved interoperability with other software
What is Agile software development?

Agile development offers a transformative approach to software development that prioritizes iterative feedback cadence, flexibility, collaboration, and end-user engagement in the full project cycle. At Mantrax, the majority of our projects are run in two-week sprints, with the target to demonstrate functionality to the client at the end of the sprint. Further, we hold sprint retrospective meetings to receive feedback (good or bad) from stakeholders and developers alike.

How do you control quality with custom software development?

With our agile development process, quality is controlled throughout the development process, with the following quality assurance check points:

  • Wireframes developed during design phase and approved before development begins
  • New functionality is released at each Agile Sprint (typically two weeks), providing an opportunity to test out the functionality and provide feedback through an interactive process. The Mantrax QA team will conduct robust functional, performance, security and usability testing through the development cycle. 
  • Code Review: Throughout the development cycle, code review is conducted by senior solution architects. If required, third party code review is conducted to build in the extra layer of due diligence.
  • Pilot Launch and User Acceptance Testing: Before the final application is launched, a Pilot or Beta version of the application is launched, allowing a group of end-users to test functionality end-to-end.

Do you provide any service or warranty after the project is completed?
  • We are confident in our work and the products we produce. We provide 1 year of unlimited bug fixes for anything we’ve built. 
  • The warranty is on functionality we developed and has gone through our quality assurance process.  
  • We follow a rigorous test-driven approach to ensure your software solution will meet your performance requirements. 
  • Lastly, we also offer post-launch service support. The service offerings are designed based on your requirements and flexible. 
How long does it take to develop a project from scratch?

Our average projects range between 6-12 months. We also support rapid prototyping which can range from a week to a month. The exact time frame depends on your project's scope, the resources required and our collaboration model with the client.

How do I get started?

Figure out the features and functions your users want to have access to and the goals you want to achieve. With that information, we can focus our efforts and prioritize your needs to deliver the product you’ve been looking for. 

If you have your requirements ready, book a consultation with a solution architect.

We want to keep our project protected and secure. Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. We have a mutual NDA or we are also happy to review the prospective client’s NDA. We understand that some projects require more confidentiality protocols than others. Our team respects your privacy and is here to work with you. We offer you our full support when we sign your NDA.

Furthermore, our customers tell us we are unique and different in our space for five reasons:

What if I want to change something in the middle of development?

At Mantrax, we understand that ideas can evolve and new insights can emerge as your project progresses. That's why we embrace flexibility and collaboration.

We operate on an agile development framework, which allows for rapid feedback loops and continuous improvement. When you see a working prototype of a screen or specific functionality, it often sparks new ideas that can enhance the user experience or uncover potential issues early on. Both outcomes are valuable—improving the application and addressing problems before they become bigger challenges.

When you have a change in mind, we’ll discuss the impact on the budget and timeline to ensure transparency. Our process is designed to handle changes efficiently:

  • Minor Changes: Some adjustments can be made without significantly affecting the budget or timeline.
  • Moderate Changes: We’ll have a conversation to review the impact and ensure everyone is aligned before moving forward.
  • Major Changes: These might require more detailed discussions and approval to ensure the project stays on track.

To minimize unexpected changes, we start with a thorough Statement of Work (SOW) process. This helps us think through application features, prioritize tasks, and address solution architecture, security, and risk management upfront. However, we understand that new ideas are a natural part of the development journey. That's why we have robust processes in place to manage change requests, fostering innovation and ensuring your product performs at its best.

We’re here to support you every step of the way, ensuring your project not only meets but exceeds your expectations.
