Our Enterprise Software Development Process
Step 1
Getting the Idea on Paper
Like mobile app development, every custom software project begins with an in-depth assessment of your project’s requirements and software life cycle. An account executive and project manager will work with you to define your project’s scope and develop a plan of action to outline the time and resources required. During this step, we break down all the app’s potential uses that will determine the user experience. Suppose your application is strictly for internal use. In that case, there will be a more in-depth process of gathering all the necessary integrations and technologies for it to work fluidly with existing systems.
Step 2
Laying Out the Technical Requirements
We’ll help you determine security and encryption requirements, the cost of development, databases and cloud software, as well as integration with hardware that your company utilizes. This step is essential for understanding your goals and identifying a clear plan as we advance in the enterprise software development process. Once a plan of action and statement of work are in place, the project moves to the next phase. This step may require our team to work with your internal IT or development team to ensure we have a clear image of what work is needed to improve your technology stack.
Step 3
Developing Through Agile Methodology
Through agile software development, we develop your project over several iterative cycles. The iterative cycles result in more communication and a continually improved product. New builds of your project are regularly shared with you and your team to solicit feedback and integrate your improvements. This development process is tried and true, resulting in a higher-performing product. If you require a new database or backend system, we’ll work with you to plan a secure way of building the right solution.
Step 4
Rigorous QA Testing
Our quality assurance teams ensure the product is rigorously tested throughout active development, eliminating any bugs found. When it comes time to roll the software out to your organization’s employees and clients, it will be ready for prime time. We conduct several rounds of sandbox testing with your information security in mind. We also test your product in a secure testing environment without impacting your production-level operations.
Step 5
Deploying the Product to Users
At the end of the QA process, your app is deployed either internally or through its platform’s respective marketplace for public use. In either situation, we help educate you on the proper deployment methods. If you are hosting the application in the cloud through AWS or Azure, we can deploy it according to your IT department’s requirements or through an MDM. We also offer support and maintenance after release to keep the product up-to-date and reliable.
How We Manage Your Data in Enterprise Software Development
AWS and RedShift
Amazon Web Services represent one of the most influential and useful web and data hosting sets in the industry. Our experience with AWS means that we can help you not only launch your solution in the cloud, but we can help you grow your offering to new heights while maintaining a high level of software quality.
Redshift is the Amazon cloud data warehouse, where all your app’s data will be analyzed and combined within different structures to pull insights about your user base and app activity. Redshift is one of the best ways to scale and grow your project while keeping security and performance in mind.
MongoDB
For clients with significant data demands, Zco uses MongoDB to quickly and securely store and retrieve information. As opposed to typical database structures, MongoDB uses collections and documents, compared to tables and rows. As a distributed database, MongoDB ensures that no matter how large a software product, its data will scale according to the application’s needs. We may use MongoDB for your project for instances where we need to work with Big Data, mobile and social infrastructure, and manage user data.
Azure
Microsoft’s cloud computing platform, Azure, is utilized by international companies and small businesses for remote data management and processing. Azure offers an enhanced security level and is often the choice of government organizations looking for cloud computing and storage. Azure offers AI-driven data processing, hosting, and over 100 tools to support your organization. We can use Azure to augment and help our clients, from virtual machines to encrypted and high-performance databases. This level of reliability, security, and scalability is just one reason we leverage this tool to deliver high-quality software development services.
IoT Automation
Integrating enterprise-grade solutions with IoT requires reducing manual work and increasing overall business efficiency. With our dedicated team of IoT engineers and developers, we can create software for our clients to watch or monitor thousands of devices simultaneously. With long-range data transmission like 5G, you’re taking advantage of embedded devices with sensors and actuators that provide cloud platforms with relevant data. You can now automate processes that depend on contextual information from machines, vehicles, and other equipment and have a mobile app or software to facilitate that automation.
Secure Solutions
No matter your organization’s size or project’s scope, we will ensure that your software utilizes the latest technology to protect your data. We pride ourselves on integrating only the most advanced and secure technology into our clients’ software as a service (SAAS) products. Whether that means implementing cutting-edge encryption technology, biometric measures, or cloud storage integration, we will find secure custom software solutions to safeguard you and your data. This attention to detail is just one reason why we’re rated as one of the top mobile app and custom software developers in the U.S.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to some of the most commonly asked questions below!
What is enterprise software development?
Simply put, an enterprise app is designed to meet the needs of a group of individuals working together rather than a single independent user. An example of this is an app for the purpose of tracking inventory at a warehouse that involves multiple users and an admin system.
What are the stages of the enterprise app development process?
Broadly speaking, the process can be distilled into the following stages:
• Project Planning
• Design
• Development
• Testing
• Launch
The lines of communication will be open during the entire process to ensure that all parties are on the same page and so development can move forward without a hitch.
We have existing software that needs to be updated. Can you work with that?
We can work with your legacy software. Starting with a code review, we’ll determine what can be used from the original code and what needs to be custom built from scratch. A full list of technologies that we work with can be found on our About page.
Do you have your own development team, or do you outsource?
We have our own development team, and each member is a vetted employee. We do not utilize any outside sources for development or any other aspect of our company.
Why should you select Zco for enterprise software development?
Our bread and butter from the beginning has been helping to solve business problems with innovative and long-lasting custom desktop software. Few software development companies can match our experience (over 30 years!) with a complete technology stack that consists of all the best technologies like JavaScript while incorporating newer tech like Blazor and .Net Maui. And most important of all, we prioritize developing a deep relationship with you to produce lasting results.
How do I track the progress of my enterprise app?
Communication is critical in any software development project. We’ll be in constant communication and track every detail using project management tools like Jira. During development, releases of your software general come in two-week long sprints using the agile development process.
