Software development and continuous maintenance costs money and not every company has any business trying to run a software development department.

Every company should be focused on data analytics though

Especially writing a bespoke data entry system.

You can find plenty of cheap good enough consulting companies that can make modifications to any of the third party SaaS products.

Understood. It is no doubt the maintenance and the time to build. However, it does take some efforts to build Oracle forms that requires a good amount of development time in PL/SQL and for customization of forms screens.

  • The thing is that it is a well understood platform and easy to hire out one of the major consulting companies by giving them the requirements and signing a statement of work.

    Then when you don’t want to deal with them, hire out another one.
