What kinds of custom software can Bosseo build for a law firm?+
Bosseo describes client portals, intake tools, internal dashboards, speed-to-lead tools, referral trackers, document-intake flows, calculators and integrations between existing systems as possible custom-software work. The appropriate scope for your firm must be discussed and defined rather than assumed.
Do I need a requirements document before contacting Bosseo?+
Bosseo says you can describe the bottleneck in plain English and that its team will ask questions and help scope the build. You should still bring examples of the current workflow, the systems involved and the decisions the tool must support.
Can Bosseo connect a tool to our existing systems?+
Bosseo describes custom tools as connected to a firm’s website, intake and dashboard and says integrations can include CRM, case-management and marketing systems. Whether your specific systems can connect, and how, requires technical review.
How should our firm evaluate permissions and recovery?+
Ask which roles can view, create, edit, export or delete each type of information. Also ask about backups, restoration, service interruption, incorrect changes and responsibility for recovery. Bosseo’s public page describes hosting, monitoring and backups, but your firm should confirm the details relevant to its workflow.
Who maintains the software after it is built?+
Bosseo states that it hosts and maintains custom tools and includes updates, fixes, improvements and iteration in its described offering. Confirm the operational responsibilities, request path and scope of future changes for your proposed build.
How do we know whether custom software is justified?+
Compare the cost and risk of the current manual process with the cost and scope of a focused build. If an off-the-shelf product genuinely matches the workflow, buying it may be more appropriate. Custom software deserves consideration when the firm is maintaining workarounds or repeatedly moving information between systems.
