Customizing Cloud Software: Advantages, Statistics and Data-Backed Insights that You Need to Know

In today’s dynamic and interconnected business landscape, cloud software has emerged as a transformative force, empowering organizations to streamline operations, enhance collaboration, and achieve unprecedented levels of productivity. Therefore, we at Era Biz wanted to give you the lowdown on the situation!

Cloud Software Solutions: Statistics and Insights

According to a recent study by Gartner, the global Worldwide Public Cloud End-User Spending is expected to reach USD600 billion by the end of 2023, with a growth rate of 30.9%. This seems to pretty accurately match the market, as according to our increasing numbers of requests we receive at Era Biz for cloud software solutions seems to point at an increasing adoption of cloud-based applications by businesses of all sizes.

• A study by Zippia revealed that 94% of the enterprise organizations are using cloud services as at 2023.
• Surveys conducted by IDC, 71% of mature cloud buyers are able to realize the need to adopt new technologies first in line so as to stay in game.

However, the inherent limitations of off-the-shelf cloud solutions often leave businesses grappling with a mismatch between their unique requirements and the available functionalities. This is why Era Biz offers customized cloud software solutions. As stated in the 2023 SolarWinds IT Trends Report, there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to cloud solutions, and it is important to employ careful planning and purposeful development for organizations to adopt flexible multi-cloud and hybrid environments effectively.

By allowing you to customize cloud software, we are offering you a gateway to tailored solutions that seamlessly align with the specific needs of each organization. According to a report by Fortune Business Insights, the global cloud computing market size will reach USD 2432.87 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 20.0%. This growth is being driven by the increasing demand for customized cloud solutions that can help businesses improve efficiency, productivity, and competitive advantage.

The Transformative Benefits of Customized Cloud Software

The benefits of customized cloud software extend far beyond simply addressing specific functional requirements. These tailored solutions unlock a treasure trove of advantages that empower businesses of all sizes to achieve their strategic objectives:

1. Precision Fit: Tailored to Perfection

One of our clients who was in the dairy business wanted a cloud software to digitize their deliveries. But they were initially reluctant to pay for the slightly extra cost that hiring developers to customize their cloud software would involve. They went for a generic software from another company and came to regret their decision.

While the generic company promised that the software would serve them with all their needs, it was not at all flexible and did not meet their requirements in the least. Instead the software ended up making their process even harder and was a complete waste of money and time. Even worse, they started losing clients due to delays in deliveries caused by technical issues.

The client then came to Era Biz Solutions because they needed this situation rectified. We were able to develop them a fully customized cloud software solution that exactly fit their needs when they hired our talented dedicated developers.

Customized cloud software meticulously molds itself to the intricate contours of a business’s operations, ensuring a perfect fit that eliminates the need for workarounds and compromises. According to a study by McKinsey & Company, organizations that implement customized cloud solutions experience an average increase in efficiency of 20%.

2. Competitive Edge: Differentiating in a Crowded Marketplace

In the fiercely competitive business landscape, differentiation is key to success. Customized cloud software empowers organizations to carve out a unique niche by incorporating features and functionalities specifically tailored to their competitive landscape. A 2019 study by Accenture found that businesses that have implemented customized cloud solutions are 2.5 times more likely to report a competitive advantage.

After we implemented the customized cloud solution, the dairy client that we spoke of above was not only able to stop losing customers, but was even able to attain a market growth that was 2.13 times their previous sales. They were very happy to see this after their previous software failure with the generic (off-the-shelf software).

3. Scalability: Embracing Growth and Change

As businesses evolve and their needs expand, customized cloud software proves its resilience, seamlessly scaling to accommodate the ever-growing demands. According to a survey by IDC, 82% of organizations believe that cloud computing is essential for their ability to scale their business operations.

In 2020, our dedicated developers at Era Biz helped a government institution in Sri Lanka build a very versatile and cost effective customized cloud software solution. Through it the institution was able to serve over 2 million citizens, a very intimidating number that all the other software development companies in Sri Lanka were not at all ready to handle.

Over the years the numbers grew by several hundreds of thousands. But the cloud software application was able to handle it easily. Even more importantly Era Biz was even able to add on and integrate several other applications to the original cloud solution recently.

4. Enhanced Security: Safeguarding Sensitive Data

Customized cloud software empowers businesses to prioritize security by tailoring it to their specific risk profiles and compliance requirements. A 2021 study by Forrester Research found that organizations that implement customized cloud solutions experience a 30% reduction in security breaches.

Many of Era Biz’ finance sector clients go for customized cloud solutions developed under the most secure conditions for this purpose. This allows our clients the fullest control over their sensitive data with the maximum amount of cost-effectiveness.

5. Empowering Employees: Unleashing Human Potential

Customized cloud software, designed with the end-user in mind, empowers employees to work smarter, not harder. Intuitive interfaces, streamlined workflows, and role-based access controls foster a user-friendly environment, maximizing employee productivity and satisfaction. A 2020 study by Gallup found that employees who have access to the tools and technology they need are 25% more likely to be engaged in their work.

This doesn’t just apply for employees but also your customers who may use the software directly. Our client in the education industry requested a customized cloud software solution for learning (LMS). The highly flexible software created by Era Biz’s innovative dedicated developers allowed thousands of students to login and learn simultaneously. It was highly praised by their end users (students and teachers), and caused greater learning engagement among the students. This impact was directly shown over the past 2 years both by the rising exam scores of the students and increasing class attendance, not to mention the increase in student count that they experienced.
