As an Entrepreneur coming from an industry background, you have a vision of a technology solution that will resolve the issues that your industry has been struggling with for many years. Leadership in technology requires not only managing current challenges, but also building an outstanding team capable of executing strategic initiatives, taking the business to the next level.
As a Head of IT, you have been in discussions with the business about its operational challenges and are looking for an off-the-shelf solution to address them, yet none of the shortlisted products quite fit. A comprehensive understanding of your users’ needs, however, means you are very clear of what solution the business needs to meet its unique goals.
As a Business Owner, who is involved in daily operations, you want to delegate more of the operational activity while retaining control of the high-level data. Disparate systems or spreadsheets are no longer a solution, and you have a vision of a unique IT system or a set of dashboards that will allow you to retain control of the operations while providing you with the data necessary for strategic growth planning.
There is an abundance of technology products that claim to solve the operational and strategic challenges of a wide range of businesses. You might have checked the options suitable for your business on the software products review sites such as SoftwareReviews or Gartner. You might have reviewed the product demo or did a trial in your sandbox or production environment.
Yet, you may not be convinced that the solution is right for your business:
First, it might be geared towards larger clients, with an abundance of features and configurations that are too complex for your needs.
Second, its integration options may only meet your needs half way, and you understand that for the full visibility your team will resort to old good spreadsheets.
Third, in order to adopt the product, some optimized operational sequences may change, meaning the business will have to adapt to the tool, rather than the tool will serve the business.
Also, although the product is changing, you may have an impression that your specific customisation requests will not be a priority for the developers as they follow a defined, generic roadmap.
Finally, while the demo and trial incentives might be lucrative, your financial analysis suggests that the overall cost of ownership over time, especially with “per user” or “per transaction” charging model, could skyrocket.

The Computools team was very rapidely operational despite the complexity of the situation and the need for the team to adapt to our development methodologies. The Computools team could also work very remotely with very good inter-communication with the SBFinance team ensuring good efficiency despite off-shoring.
Computools are experts and act professionally, with lots of guidance on technical recommendations and with easy to understand explanations of what the technical choices mean and why one can be a better website than another. As a result, the development was completed on time and exceeded our expectations. The feedback from our customers was very positive and compared to our previous results we doubled our turnover.
