Some Software Development Advice:
Over the years I've seen this error in software development approach repeated countless times. A company identifies a software need and, thinking they already know how to approach that need, proceeds to advertise for a programmer with experience in the development tool they wish to use (or think they should use). After getting that far they feel that the problem is at least 50% solved. But problems are just beginning. Programmers rarely speak the language of customers or management. Management certainly doesn’t speak the language of a programmer. This communication barrier is a big part of the reason an application development team is needed. If a software package that you’ve had developed doesn’t do what you thought it would do, that could be because you didn't use a team with the ability to properly communicate your needs. Only with a complete team in place can a software program be built efficiently and cost-effectively. You'll save money and headaches at the same time!
