Software validation

Software validation challenge

In the process of software validation, the customer accepts software provided by the developer.

We help ensure that the product meets performance requirements for both new software and updates.

The numbers tell a story of their own

100 times

Fixing performance issues after deployment can be up to 100 times more expensive than addressing them during the development phase.

16%

For e-commerce sites, a one-second delay in page response can result in a 16% decrease in customer satisfaction.

A one-second delay in page load time can result in a 7% reduction in conversions.

79%

Around 79% of shoppers who are dissatisfied with website performance are less likely to buy from the same site again.

Before software validation, developers typically perform software verification.

However, based on our experience, it’s common for developers to test software functionality without considering the load.
As a result, when the system goes live, several risks can arise:

Business processes halt due to system failures under load.

Business processes experience slowdowns.

The introduction and rollout of software into operations are hindered.

Financial losses and decrease in customer loyalty.
