Costs vary depending on complexity, timeline, and features. Small projects may start at $10,000; enterprise systems can exceed $250,000.

If off-the-shelf tools don’t really fit how you work, then yes, custom software development solutions can be totally worth it. It’s an upfront investment, but it pays off when things run smoother, faster and with fewer workarounds. With Mediastep, we focus on building solutions that actually solve problems and save you time in the long run. It’s not about adding features, it’s about making your workflow better and more efficient.

You should choose a custom software company that’s easy to work with clear communication, honest about what they can do, and willing to really understand your needs. Experience matters too, but it’s more about how they handle your specific problem. Mediastep is a great choice because we don’t just build what you ask for. We take the time to understand your business, so the solution actually works for you.

Security is a top priority. We use secure coding practices, data encryption, multi-factor authentication, and regular testing to protect your app from threats.

Security and confidentiality are super important, especially with custom development software. You want a team that follows best practices, uses secure tools and respects your data like it’s their own. At Mediastep, we sign NDAs, limit access to sensitive info, and build everything with security top of mind.

It really depends on what you need. Some small tools can take a few weeks, while more complex systems might take a few months or longer. What matters most is having a clear plan from the start. At Mediastep, we always break the project into phases, so you can see progress early and adjust along the way. That way, you’re not waiting months without knowing things are at.
