The timeline for developing custom software depends on the scope, complexity, and features of the project. A simple MVP (Minimum Viable Product) with core functionalities typically takes 3-6 months, including planning, design, development, and initial testing. More complex enterprise solutions, which require advanced integrations, scalability, and security measures, can take 6-12 months or longer, as they involve extensive testing, compliance checks, and iterative improvements to meet business requirements.
