There is a lot of content online about the importance of user experience in software development and brand reputation. The general concensus is that user experience directly affects the subscriber or customer retention rate, the amount of money people are willing to pay for something, and the likelihood of users referring friends and family, among other important factors that directly affect the product’s success and the brand’s bottom line.

At Syberry, we recognize the importance of user experience, and like some other development companies, we pride ourselves on our fantastic UI and UX designers and planners.

Steps in Software Creation

by Diana on August 20, 2020

Custom development of any software solution — from a web log analysis tool to a complex multi-component platform — consists of several steps, and proper implementation of each is essential for a successful end result. It’s a lot to keep track of, but developers and engineers can visualize these steps in a valuable tool called a “work breakdown structure,” designed to guide the project through to a successful launch.

Work breakdown structures may look different from team to team and project to project, but each has several elements and stages in common. This blog post outlines these critical stages of custom software development, exploring why they’re important and highlighting the main goals of each stage.

AWS vs Azure

by Timour on August 17, 2020

There isn’t a business on the planet that’s not interested in saving money and minimizing risk. But traditionally, when it came to launching an IT project, expenses and risk were the only guarantees. From server purchases to salaries to energy expenditures to software maintenance costs, there were a number of challenges that had to be overcome. First of all, a business had to achieve a high level of success in order to cover these major expenses. And, on top of that, they had to be prepared to spend even more money mitigating risks — or solving problems.

The Integrated Team

by Anna on August 10, 2020

The integrated team is a new software development industry model under which the vendors’ team works closely with the clients’ IT department, integrating into their processes and procedures rather than working separately. This model is becoming increasingly popular, especially in scenarios where clients need to introduce a new product to the market quickly. Outsourcing and out-staffing might not necessarily be the most effective solutions in these cases, whereas the integrated team model encapsulates the advantages — in terms of pricing, quality, and process — of both fully outsourced and fully in-house models.

Components of a Successful Project

by Diana on July 31, 2020

All stories of failed vendor-client software development relationships are similar. On the other hand, every successful collaboration is unique. The reasons for failure could include issues with communication, language and culture barriers, or lack of understanding of the business and technical requirements by the vendor.

While successful projects have more varied stories, however, that success is usually built on a variety of components that lead to successful partnership between the vendor team and the client.
