Integration and compatibility with existing systems

0

Definition

Customers use multiple systems (finance tools, marketing platforms, customer databases, ERP, CRM). New custom software must integrate smoothly with existing infrastructure, creating complexity. Integration requires understanding multiple APIs, data formats, authentication mechanisms, and business logic across legacy and modern systems. Poor integration planning results in extended timelines, data inconsistencies, duplicate integrations, and customer frustration. For development teams, this often requires custom integration middleware, data transformation, and ongoing maintenance. Teams without strong API/integration expertise struggle with this, leading to suboptimal solutions. The fragmented tech stacks many enterprises run create integration challenges that custom developers must navigate.
