Configurability | Companybaker

Modify or add functionality according to your needs

The functioning of every company is built on unique processes (a furniture company uses a different set of processes than a law firm). And the more the system can do, the greater the chance it will not be able to do it in a way the company needs.

The best fit for these unique needs would be a custom-made system, but custom development is very time-consuming (depending on the complexity of the system, from months to years) and very expensive (for medium-sized systems, on the order of millions).

For time and financial reasons, the most advantageous choice is often a compromise - a ready-made general system, most often in the form of a rental.

Companybaker offers the advantages of a custom-made system in a ready-made solution. It is built on the unique platform Systembaker, which allows to modify or add any functionality to suit the client's needs.

Thus, you have a ready-made solution at your disposal, but if something is not satisfactory, you can change it at any time while the system is running and in an intuitive manner that a trained user without programming knowledge can handle. Therefore, you can manage many changes on your own, without having to wait for a developer.

Development on a low code platform is faster compared to traditional programming because it contains a ready-made set of generally usable components that are only configured for a specific solution (they do not need to be developed from scratch each time). It is thus not only a time but also a financial saving.

Change must be safe and easy

Do you want to keep up with the competition and grow your company? The key is continuous innovation of business processes so that the company continuously adapts to changing conditions both inside and outside the company.

Does this mean you will have to completely change the system every few years and undergo all the associated risks? Not necessarily.

Innovation is necessary to maintain the company's competitiveness, but it represents a significant risk

Every new system undergoes a period of "teething problems" after implementation, and if, for example, the company is unable to issue invoices due to a system error (even for a month), its entire existence could be at risk.
After changing the system, it is usually necessary to retrain employees to work with the new system, which requires time and money.

Companybaker allows gradual changes

Companybaker already contains basic functionality, which you can further modify, add and develop according to your current needs.
You are developing a system that your employees already know, so the training costs after system changes are lower than for a completely new system.

The advantage is that you are not building a system from scratch. You are just fine-tuning the details. Implementing smaller incremental changes does not pose as much risk.

And last but not least - no matter how much functionality you add, the price of Companybaker for you will not increase (even for a significantly "smarter" system you will still pay the same).

During its lifetime, a company often needs to innovate its processes

(and innovation cycles have significantly shortened over the past 100 years) based on e.g.:

Its own growth

If the company is successful and grows significantly, the requirements for processes such as approval procedures, onboarding/offboarding, and managing a larger number of salespeople and projects will change with the larger number of employees. These processes will need to be managed differently than when there is only one salesperson/project manager.

Changing market conditions

New business opportunities will arise or others will disappear, competitors will enter the market, raw material and energy prices will change, and the market will be affected by crises such as wars or pandemics. The company should flexibly adapt to the current situation.

Legislative changes

If there are legislative changes that impact the company's operations, they need to be incorporated into the company's processes.
