Custom Software Development FAQs
As requirements change or as more stakeholders start using an application built in Zoho, clients may find that their application is not flexible enough to meet their very unique needs. This is when our team recommends custom software development. We can help build an entirely custom application, or we can build an application that merges custom features and Zoho features. The path we ultimately take depends on your requirements, your timeline, and your budget.
If you find yourself growing frustrated by your manual processes or by the out-of-the-box software you’re using, if your team is failing to meet goals or accomplish tasks, or if you’re spending tens of thousands of dollars on an application that doesn’t do everything you need, you would benefit greatly from custom software development.

All custom software development projects start with requirements gathering and documentation. We learn about your project, your processes, and your people. Then, we put together a “blueprint” of what your project will include, what features it will have, and how long we think this project will take to be developed. KDG will work with you to determine deliverables inside your budget. Deliverables will be organized into smaller phases which accumulate to a larger project.
Practically all industries can benefit from custom software development. Our team has built applications for higher ed institutions like Muhlenberg College, real estate companies, healthcare organizations like MedTech, logistics, manufacturing, and more.
Benefits of custom software development include enhanced efficiency, lower costs, increased revenue, improved transparency, superior support, and an added competitive advantage. When you build custom software, you’re building something that is uniquely your own. It is something that none of your competitors have.
One of the biggest benefits of custom software development is the ability to consolidate multiple applications, features, and processes into one custom application. If you find yourself managing and paying for numerous platforms, we can help consolidate all of your programs into one solution.
Before any migration, we can sanitize data to help ensure that the data being migrated into your new system or the data being integrated with existing systems is accurate. We understand that your business relies on accurate reporting to make confident decisions, so we take great care in ensuring you have the best data to work with.
The cost of custom software development varies greatly depending on the size and complexity of your application. The initial phase of any custom software solution can be expected to be in the range of $30-50K. Learn more about the price of custom software development.
If you are not on a support plan and have a maintenance request, you will be required to pay an admin fee in addition to hourly charges. Your request will then be added to the queue for our developers. We encourage all development clients to engage in a support plan because this will ensure they receive key support quickly.
