Our custom software development process
At XGC, we aim at establishing long-term relationships with our customers. From exploring their business idea to upgrading the software solution after its successful launch, customers can count on our support at each stage of the custom software development.
01/ Discovery
We start a new software project with a discovery session. It is a sure-fire way to minimize risks, improve efficiency, cut customized software development services costs, and reduce the amount of rework. To achieve these goals, we collect and analyze the input information. It includes pain points your custom software development solution will address, target audience, desirable features, and competitors. Such a comprehensive approach allows us to deliver successful software solutions that meet the market demand. Besides, armed with this valuable data, we can offer customers more accurate time and cost estimates.
02/ Design
The UX/UX design stage starts with analyzing the project requirements. This information helps our design team create the information infrastructure the right way. As soon as the information structure is completed, the UX/UI designers build wireframes. They can be seen as the skeletal framework followed by designers and the development team. They do not have any colors or logos to keep the developers focused on usability rather than visual appeal. When the customer approves these wireframes, UX/UI designers transform them into interactive prototypes, which suppose the first user interaction. Prototypes serve to create the UI design that we later present to our customers.
03/ Development
At XGC, we adhere to the principles of the Agile philosophy. This way, we will help you minimize risks associated with custom business software development and offer better control over your project. This approach increases your chances to launch a high-quality, bug-free software product. Agile adoption implies dividing the custom application development process into short periods of time. They are called sprints that usually last for two weeks. At the beginning of each sprint, our custom software development team defines which tasks they should be working on during the next two weeks. After that, developers build the required features. As soon as some piece of functionality is completed, it is tested by the quality assurance engineers to make sure it has no bugs. If there are no bugs or glitches, the functionality is released to production.
04/ Release
It is the last and the most responsible part of the custom software product development process where your digital solution goes live. After our quality assurance engineers have performed all kinds of automated and manual testing, including usability, performance, and ad hoc testing, and did not identify any bugs or system glitches, the finalized application can be deployed to production. It means your software product is finally available for the end-users and search engines. Then, our custom development team writes the release notes to specify all bugs that were fixed and key changes that have been made.
05/ Support
After your custom software development product is launched, we will monitor its performance and fix any bugs identified by the end-users. Also, we will implement new features to help you stay relevant and satisfy the growing needs of your target audience. If you need the after-launch support from our custom software outsourcing, you can choose one of two options. You can purchase a certain number of hours or create a backlog of tasks our development team will need to work on. Here we recommend collecting tasks until they add up to at least eighty working hours and then give them to our development team. This way, you will save on maintenance and support services.

Reasons to outsource custom software solutions
Partnership with an offshore software development company will be less expensive than maintaining an in-house development team. Besides, since you do not have any limitations as for the geographic location, you can outsource your project to a software development agency from another region. For example, developers from Eastern Europe tend to set lower rates. However, the quality of their custom software development service still remains high. As a result, outsourcing the digital product to a software development company, will allow you to cut operational and labor expenses and get a superb software solution.
The number of global IT companies is growing steadily. Each of them specializes in certain technologies or types of software solutions. In this regard, outsourcing enables you to reach a great pool of highly-skilled software developers from all over the world who have experience building digital products similar to the one you want to build. Such diversity makes it easier to find a suitable company offering software development services with relevant experience, well-established workflow, pre-defined processes, and project management methodologies that suit your project the most.
When you partner with a company providing custom software development service, you no longer need to delve into complicated technical nuances. Instead, you can spend your free time on more important tasks at hand and concentrate on the core business goals you want to achieve. To be more specific, you can focus on customer management, selling channels, promotional strategies, searching for investors, and other processes that influence the profitability of your business.
Frequently asked questions
What is a custom software development service?
Custom software development service implies designing, building, releasing, and maintaining software solutions. The value of such products lies in their uniqueness. Bespoke software solutions are tailored to specific business requirements and the needs of a particular customer. For this reason, they have a distinctive set of features and definite characteristics. Custom software development approach is often adopted by the narrow domains or industries where compliance with certain regulations is required. Here we should mention healthcare, finance, and online banking. Tailored solutions are better suited for serving these industries than generic, out-of-the-box products because of advanced security mechanisms and unique functionality.
How much does custom software cost?
There is no unified answer to this question. The total cost varies from project to project. So rather than provide you with some figures, we will pay attention to the key factors that define how much you will have to pay to get your digital product built from scratch. The first factor is the project complexity. The more complicated features you want to implement, the more money you will have to pay for custom software development services. The second factor is the rates of the custom software development firm you will partner with. The services of software development companies from the US or Western Europe will be more expensive compared to rates set by Eastern European counterparts. However, the lower rates do not influence the quality of the software solutions they deliver.
What are the types of custom software?
What is the difference between custom and off-the-shelf software?
There is a big difference between custom software and off-the-shelf products. First, when it comes to custom solutions, you can implement any functionality you need. It is not the case with ready-made products. They come with a limited feature set that is difficult, if not impossible, to customize or modify. The second difference is the launch speed. You can launch an out-of-the-box solution almost instantly, while tailored solutions may take some time. Third, bespoke software is better protected against common security threats and vulnerabilities owing to secure protocols and encryption. Finally, though the off-the-shelf solutions seem less costly than software development services, the latter is more cost-effective in the long run. You do not have to pay licensing fees that will grow as your business scales.
