Instinctools’ team helps you uncover which maintenance and support strategy will fit in with your business requirements and limitations. There are four types of collaboration we provide.
By nipping the issues in the bud, *instinctools’ developers minimize the risk of software deterioration. As part of our preventive maintenance services, we proactively anticipate software aging and provide frontline practices to enable your software longevity.
Our experience reveals that compared to reactive application maintenance services, the preventive approach costs 15–20% less in the long run and ensures 10–15% increase in the software uptime while minimizing the possibility of security threats caused by outages.
Once your software is running smoothly, we focus on enhancing its operation. For instance, we can perform stress tests before the holiday season to ensure your web app will handle spikes in customers and will be able to retain a high level of user experience despite the extreme workload.
To lighten your dev team’s load, we conduct a code review. It might be worth rewriting and optimizing it according to current standards to make its maintenance more convenient and cost-effective.
With this option, we address any technical problems that have already occurred. Reactive troubleshooting may suffice for minor issues or one-time incidents. This approach does not require substantial upfront investment and necessitates minimal planning.
In the dynamic world of software solutions, it is essential to adjust to any changes within the environment where the software operates. These changes can be driven by your organization’s decisions, such as implementing new corporate policies, incorporating a brand-new payment option, switching to a new cloud provider, or installing new hardware.
Alternatively, they can be caused by conditions outside your control, such as new requirements introduced by GDPR, PCI DSS, NYDFS, and other regulations. Either way, our adaptive support and maintenance services aim at keeping your application resilient to any sudden fluctuations and ensuring its optimal performance.
