Advantages of Industry Specific Software

Leverage Industry Knowledge

Companies purchase industry-specific software because the tool fits their needs right out of the box. After all, it was designed for their type of business. But there is often functionality in the software they hadn't thought of. This is because competitors have already solved problems which their business may not have encountered.

Reduced Development and Implementation Costs

Industry specific software costs a fraction of what it takes to create custom software. The ratio is perhaps 100 to one, meaning for every one dollar you spend on industry-specific software, you get about 100 dollars worth of programming. Companies often decide it makes more sense to live without a specific feature or function than to spend the enormous sums required to develop their own software solution.

The cost of implementing a new software product (the "soft cost") is often significantly more than the cost of the system being implemented. ProductLine's soft costs are low due to the simple nature of the system and the intuitive design, resulting in a very short learning curve. Long-term costs are negative, as the system quickly pays for itself in increased productivity, security, and reduced risk.

Fits Your Business

Industry Specific Software is usually of a manageable scope. Large ERP systems may require significant changes in the way you do business. A "big-name" product may sound impressive at first, but later you might find you are forced to alter your operations in order to accommodate the software! This can result in total dissatisfaction with the product.
