Software Prototyping
Tell us about your project.
Software prototyping is used by developers to give businesses a strong idea of what their final product will look like before the development process gets fully underway.
Why Choose Orases?Software prototyping is an essential step for saving time, money and resources because it presents an opportunity to evaluate the product, ensure it will act as desired and determine where improvements can be made.
Prototyping can encompass the entire software product. However, in many cases, only the potentially complicated elements are the focus of prototyping, such as areas where the user interface might be complex.

Notable Features & Functionalities Software Prototyping Offers
What Orases software prototyping can provide for you.
Here are a few of the many benefits that come from our prototyping services:
Feedback Prior To Development
Developing detailed prototypes allows us to get feedback from those who will be using the software or application as well as stakeholders and investors before launching into full-fledged development.
Early Identification Of Issues
The effort we make in prototyping can go a long way toward identifying potential issues before coding gets underway. Discovering obstacles ahead of time can save a lot of time and effort during development and keep costs lower.
Open Communication
We seek to establish a good match between our development team and your company, and we ensure that everyone can work together in a collaborative environment to deliver exactly what your business needs to be successful.
Focus On User Experience
Our user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) designers work hard to create products that users will enjoy. We focus on intuitive designs that flow well and are interactive to keep users engaged.
Prototype Visualization
Our prototypes are far more than fixed images. We go the extra mile to deliver clickable prototypes that use transitions and other effects to paint an accurate picture of what the final product will look like so you can make more informed decisions.
Iterative Development
Software prototyping supports an iterative process where prototypes are progressively refined based on user feedback and testing results. Each iteration improves accuracy in terms of meeting user expectations and technical requirements.
Requirement Validation
Prototypes serve as a practical method for validating requirements. They help clarify user expectations for the final product, making it easier to understand and specify what is needed.
Cost Efficiency
Early detection of design flaws and requirement errors through prototyping can reduce the cost of development by avoiding extensive revisions in later stages of the software development lifecycle.
Support For Multiple Technologies
Modern prototyping tools support a variety of development frameworks and technologies, allowing prototypes to be created for different platforms like web, mobile, and desktop applications.

Custom Software Development GuideThe Orases Process
How we work, from start to finish.
Our custom software development team has years of experience designing and developing unique & innovative custom software using a streamlined, repeatable process.
Idea
This involves documenting key business processes and eliciting needs and concerns from stakeholders. Additionally, risks associated with introducing new software are evaluated, and mitigation measures are planned. For commercial software products, this phase also includes conducting competition analysis, understanding the target audience’s needs, defining product differentiation, and addressing obstacles to market entry, such as regulatory barriers.
Define Goals
Defining goals involves composing a comprehensive list of requirements and expectations, ensuring alignment between stakeholders and the development team. By starting with a precise definition of the project’s specific requirements and scope, clarity and focus are ensured, laying a solid foundation for the development process to follow.
UX/UI Design
UX/UI design will determine the software’s appearance at the user level, defining app architecture, and integrating existing enterprise systems for cost-effectiveness and reliability. Additionally, UX research is conducted to outline user personas and scenarios, followed by the creation of wireframes and clickable prototypes to visualize user interactions.
Development
Our development team begins working on the essential components of the software. This involves continuous delivery of new software parts, with ongoing analysis of emerging needs and release planning. Mockups are delivered and reviewed to ensure alignment with requirements before developers proceed with developing, testing, and migrating approved software parts to staging and production environments for deployment.
Testing
Orases will conduct thorough verification of functionality and performance, including performance monitoring and utilizing analytics tools for ongoing evaluation. Feedback is gathered from project sponsors and users on the results of the release, and the outcomes are reviewed to approve the scope of the next release. Continuous improvement is prioritized through iterative testing and refinement based on insights gained from monitoring tools.
Deployment
Deployment involves pushing the finalized product to the live server and conducting user testing to ensure it meets stakeholder expectations. Additionally, software monitoring processes are established to track performance and address any issues that may arise post-deployment.
Training & Support
This step includes conducting project evaluations and performing knowledge transfer sessions to your in-house IT team or other vendors involved. Comprehensive training and documentation are offered to users, empowering them to utilize the software effectively. Finally, a final report is provided, and confirmation for project closure is requested to conclude the development cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions that’s been on everyone’s mind.
Why Is Prototyping Important In Software Development?
Prototyping is important because it helps identify user needs and functional requirements more accurately, allows for early testing of design and functionality, improves user involvement and satisfaction, and reduces time and costs by catching issues early.
What Are The Different Types Of Software Prototypes?
The main types include:
Throwaway Prototyping: Quick models that are discarded after use.
Evolutionary Prototyping: Models that are refined based on feedback until they evolve into the final product.
Incremental Prototyping: Separate models are developed for different components of the software, which are then integrated.
Extreme Prototyping: Mainly used in web development, this involves creating a static mockup, then a functional data layer, followed by the integration of these layers.
How Does Prototyping Differ From Traditional Software Development?
Unlike traditional software development that often follows a linear and sequential approach, prototyping is iterative. Prototyping allows for more flexibility and adaptability as the prototype is continuously improved based on user feedback before final development.
How Do You Gather Feedback On Prototypes?
Feedback can be gathered through user testing sessions, focus groups, interviews, and surveys. It’s important to set clear objectives for feedback and involve a representative sample of end-users to ensure the prototype meets their needs and expectations.
