What’s the best software for my manufacturing company?
Choosing the right software can be a daunting process. You have to weigh functional requirements, budget constraints, and other factors. The main decision often comes down to selecting between off-the-shelf software or custom development. Numerous vendors offer standard software packages tailored for the manufacturing industry. Alternatively, you have the option to develop your own software.

What are the pros and cons of off-the-shelf software?

Off-the-shelf software offers a fast implementation and cost-effective solution. However, every manufacturer has unique processes that may not align well with standard software solutions. Even if software providers claim their solution is tailored for the manufacturing industry, odds are you are paying for unnecessary features or missing essential functionalities. Customization options for the software are also limited.

Many manufacturers try to adjust their processes to fit within the constraints of off-the-shelf packages. At House of low-code, we prioritize the needs of the business over the technology itself, ensuring that your software solution is truly tailored to your specific requirements.

What are the pros and cons of custom development?

The main advantage of custom software is its perfect alignment with your business processes. You are not dependent on a software vendor determining the functionalities of the software for you. Instead, you have full control over the features of the software and its further development.

Custom development does come with risks, particularly in traditional software development. In this approach, code is manually written using programming languages, which involves a complex and rigid process that consumes significant time in extensive specifications and planning. This is a challenge considering the dynamic nature of the manufacturing industry, where an application may no longer meet requirements shortly after development. Additionally, it can be difficult to attract experienced programmers, and their expertise comes at a high cost.

Fortunately, custom development doesn't have to be difficult. At House of low-code, we swiftly develop powerful software that truly propels your manufacturing company forward. We achieve this using a future-proof technology: low-code.
