The world of business has only one language and that language
relies on one core word, i.e. “Adapt”. Because of some serious interference
from the technology, the world of business has shaped in to a dynamic zone.
Complex markets like Dubai see many businesses jumping into the pool and fading
out within no time, just because of incompetency or limited knowledge.
As a business owner, one would need to understand that the world
of online business is taking over the conventional ways of shopping. Therefore,
the core focus should be in this area.
Before jumping into the conclusion and making random decisions
that may not worth the effort, one would need to understand the core basics
that are associated with the field of ecommerce
development Dubai. Once that milestone has been achieved the next phase
would be decide on the right solutions out of the two, i.e. whether one should
opt for custom or hosted ecommerce solutions.
This will
enable one to get hands on an appropriate platform that is in line with one’s
business requirements and processes. To go for a custom/open source solution
and a hosted solution one would need to work on the business budgets and volume
requirements as this will enable one to understand and pick the right solution.
To make the difference clear between the two, I will jot down some of the core
differences between the two types below:
Solutions
that come under the hosted types like Shopify
are believed to be the most
efficient and economical ones by experts. They are solutions that are not owned
by one because of their off-the-shelf nature; there are some core features
associated with this type such as:
- Inferior costs for setup
- Can be easily deployed and
maintained
- Price comprises of hosting services,
upgrading and downgrading can be easily achieved in this type
- It is limited in nature when it
comes to offer flexibility
- Services are backed with full and
prompt assistance from the developers
- Bugs are fixed automatically, implementing
new features and upgrading is simpler in this type
- Integration for third-party can be
done but with partial dealers
Magento
can be a good
example here as an open source solution that is highly customizable in nature
plus needs expert developers’ assistance to deploy and maintain the processes.
- Setup rates may settle between high
to very ranges (that is, cost template integration, code customization, testing,
and deployment)
- Difficult solutions may be
implemented with ease and can be maintained without facing too much of
difficulties.
- The process of downgrading and
upgrading may be classified as a complicated one.
- Improved flexible nature and
features that can be customized easily as per one’s specific needs.
- Private contract based support is
highly recommend in this type
- Coding can be customized in a manual
manner for the sake of upgrading
It may at times turn out to be a tricky job for one to pick
the right solution from the above mentioned therefore to stay on top of things
and compete efficiently in the market with extra ordinary services, one would
require a strong backup from experts in the domain of web development Dubai
based services. Experts in this domain will work closely
with you and will help you in picking the best possible solutions for your
business.
