Being on the other side, there are plenty of times that I have to tell the customer, “this world is only going to happen if you make the proper investment in setting this up specific to your needs...” and then they complain when an already overworked employee they threw it over the fence to can’t make it sing.
Good enterprise software is almost never one size fits all, and there is responsibility on both sides to end up with something great.
- bhandziuk 7y agoRight, enterprise software is usually relying on the end user to program everything but instead of programming in C#/Javascript they're programming in Salesforce (or whatever)
- thrav 7y agoI wouldn’t say everything. The whole point is not to rebuild security, and infra, and the data store, etc. etc. The first start up I worked for built a piece of software that was adopted by large enterprises in regulated industries with 3 engineers, because they got to piggyback off of the Salesforce foundation. It’s just a different flavor of abstraction.
