Selecting the right technology for your website, web application or new software-as-a-service (SaaS) project is paramount. This isn’t just about selecting the right programming language, but also choosing the best tools for each job – whether that’s designing a database, implementing a creative design, or creating a programmatic function.
Choosing the right language and tools requires a broad understanding of what your solution needs to achieve, both now and into the future, the landscape in which or devices upon which it will operate, and how / by whom your content and digital technology will be maintained.
The tools used by a software engineering team are constantly evolving. WordPress has become arguably the most popular CMS for small to medium-sized websites, along with the page builder – Elementor – which allows the efficient creation of beautiful looking, mobile responsive websites. WordPress is now supported by a vast array of mature plugins that assist web developers to achieve functionality such as Learning Management Systems, Ecommerce, and much more. Integrations with other software applications and cloud solutions is achieved via the use of public application programming interfaces (APIs).
The platform upon which your digital technology is built and hosted is also an important decision for scalability, robustness, performance and security.
Contactpoint will provide you with the benefit of our decades of experience, to assist you in the selection of the right technology.
