Consulting and System Integration Services

Computer systems integration services help to save a company’s time, people, and budget resources by combining all the needed functionality into one robust system. Thus, it streamlines communication within the company, boosts its performance, and improves customer experience.

Typically, system integration service providers divide this process into the following steps:

2. Fulfill business and technical analysis
3. Compile the project roadmap
4. Choose the design for the future system
5. Fulfill the integration and adjusting part
6. Provide continuous system maintenance

If we talk about possible system integration methods, there can be 5 of them:

• Manual: all phases of the integration are done manually;
• Middleware: through a third component between the two systems;
• Uniform access: via a common frontend, while the apps are left in their source;
• Application-based: through a ready-made application;
• Data warehouse: integration via a shared database

• EAI (Enterprise Application Integration): it’s a service-based integration, where decent services share and collect the needed data, and then perform the next actions depending on user behavior;
• DI (Data Integration): consolidates all the company’s services into one central point of truth and structures it into categories, so the company can easily use it for its reporting needs;
• EDI (Electronic Data Interchange): enables the electronic exchange of documents, signatures, and any other electronic standards, saving companies’ time, costs, and eliminating errors.

If you’re not sure which type of integration you need, we recommend you to talk to a trusted сompany, so it can give you examples of best-fitting integration architectures.

System integration services not only enhance workflow automation, data transparency, visibility, and security across organizations all over the world. They also help to re-engineer legacy tools and apps, linking them to modern software systems and optimizing inner business processes within companies.

A systems integrator company is a software organization that customizes its clients’ computing systems with ready-made components available on the market or creates them from scratch. Such components can be various hardware, desktop applications, web platforms and services, cloud applications and their extensions, etc.

The final costs of your system integration software project depends on several factors, such as the cost of the-to-be-integrated apps, possible software licenses, project complexity, as well as rates of your chosen software development company. Plus, you may need integrated systems improvement services in the future, so you should take this into account. Thus, we recommend to turn to your system integration provider to know the exact budget for the project.
