In many cases, the best option for developing a tool is to use and customize a free open source software. These projects will cost less as compared to those who acquire proprietary software licenses or newly create their own custom tool. Our professionals have extensive experience in installing and configuring them, also in the development of templates, modules and components, and even the integration of these with your own systems or with other free and open source software.
By using free and open source software you have the following advantages:
- Lower cost: Being a free software, there are no licensing costs associated with it.
- Flexibility: Being an open source code allows us to customize all the necessary changes, thus adapting it to perform specific tasks according to the needs of a customer.
- Reliability and security: Being constantly developed by the communities of programmers, the software gets reviewed by more than one person.This ensure a greater possibility of error detection and correction. So, the resulting product is more reliable and efficient than a commercial ones.
- Speed in the development stage: Being a ready-to-use code, such projects involve only the customization of the software because in free and open source software most of the system is already coded
To carry out a customization project of a free open source software, firstly we analyze our customer requirements to determine if it is actually conducive to use such software or whether it is better to develop a custom tool. Then we determine which of all the available options suits better with the requirements and the customization process is then defined. The final stage consists in the implementation of the changes determined beforehand. After the project is finished, if the client desires, we continue providing support to the developed tool.
