FAQ About Cideon Software Developments

Cideon offers a range of solutions and services designed to optimize the entire product life cycle along your value chain. Some of the solutions developed by Cideon include:

Deciding whether customized software is the best solution for your business requires careful consideration and analysis. Here are some steps you can take to determine if customized software is the right choice:

  • Analysis of requirements: Start by identifying the specific requirements of your company. What problems or needs do you have that could be solved by software? What goals and objectives do you want to achieve with the software?
  • Review existing solutions: First, check whether there are software solutions already available on the market that meet your requirements. This can include commercial software or open source products. Sometimes it is more cost-effective and faster to adapt existing software than to develop from scratch.
  • Development time: Consider the time it takes to develop customized software. It may take longer than implementing an existing product.

We are happy to help you define your requirements and either develop individual software solutions or integrate existing solutions into your existing infrastructure. Simply arrange a consultation with Cideon.

The process of custom software development involves the creation of software applications that are specifically tailored to the needs and requirements of a particular company, organization or individual. This process can vary depending on the specific requirements and goals, but typically includes the following steps:

  • Analysis of requirements
  • Conception and design
  • Development
  • Testing and quality assurance
  • Implementation
  • Training and documentation
  • Maintenance and support
  • Evaluation and improvement

Custom software development offers the advantage that the solution is tailored exactly to your needs, which often leads to more efficient workflows and better business results. However, it usually requires more time and resources than using standard software solutions, as the application is developed from scratch. We are happy to help you decide for or against customized software development.

Cideon can look back on decades of experience in the development of customized solutions. Particularly in the CAD and PDM/PLM environment, we have already developed a large number of standardized and individual software solutions. You can find some examples in our success stories.

The costs for individual software developments vary greatly and depend on a variety of factors, for example:

  • Scope and complexity of the project
  • Functions and requirements
  • Scalability
  • Selection of technology platforms and frameworks
  • Security and compliance
  • Testing and quality assurance
  • Maintenance and support

Since costs depend on numerous factors, it is difficult to give an exact estimate without having detailed information about the specific project. Please arrange a consultation with Cideon and we will discuss your individual requirements in detail. Our decades of experience have shown that careful planning and definition of requirements is crucial to avoid cost overruns and ensure a successful software project.
