FAQFrequently asked questions
What are software solutions and application development services?
These services cover the planning, design, development, testing, deployment, integration, and maintenance of software applications. They can include enterprise systems, customer portals, mobile apps, SaaS products, workflow tools, and custom business applications.
How do I know whether my business needs custom software?
Custom software may be appropriate when existing products cannot adequately support your workflows, integrations, user requirements, or future plans. A discovery assessment can help compare bespoke development with commercial software or low-code alternatives.
Can HANOSYS develop both web and mobile applications?
HANOSYS can discuss web, iOS, Android, and cross-platform application requirements based on the project's scope and available delivery capabilities. The appropriate option depends on your users, required features, devices, and maintenance needs.
Can you integrate new software with our existing systems?
Integration requirements can be assessed for platforms such as ERP, CRM, HR, payment services, databases, and third-party applications. Feasibility depends on available APIs, access permissions, vendor restrictions, and the condition of existing systems.
Do you provide software testing and quality assurance?
Testing can be incorporated into the development lifecycle and may include functional, regression, API, performance, compatibility, accessibility, and security-related testing. The specific coverage is defined according to project risk and requirements.
Can you improve or maintain an application developed by another company?
Existing applications may be candidates for maintenance, feature enhancement, refactoring, or modernisation. The first step is to review the codebase, architecture, documentation, dependencies, access arrangements, and current technical risks.
How is a software development project priced?
Pricing depends on scope, complexity, integrations, design requirements, technology choices, team composition, and support expectations. After discovery, a suitable estimate or commercial proposal can be prepared, with assumptions and exclusions made clear.
Who owns the source code and intellectual property?
Ownership and licensing arrangements should be explicitly stated in the contract. If full transfer of project-specific intellectual property and source code is required, this should be agreed before work begins, including any treatment of third-party or pre-existing components.
How long does application development take?
The schedule varies according to the number of features, integration complexity, technical uncertainty, testing needs, and stakeholder availability. A small prototype may require substantially less time than a complex enterprise platform. A realistic timeline can be established after requirements discovery.
