At Clover Infosoft we know that change is inevitable, mechanisms must be developed for evaluation, controlling and making modifications. Software maintenance is important because it consumes a large part of the overall lifecycle costs and also the inability to change software quickly and reliably means that business opportunities are lost.

Software maintenance is a very broad activity that includes error correction, enhancements of capabilities, deletion of obsolete capabilities, and optimization. So any work done to change the software after it is in operation is considered to be maintenance work. The purpose is to preserve the value of software over the time. The value can be enhanced by expanding the customer base, meeting additional requirements, becoming easier to use, more efficient and employing newer technology.
At Clover Infosoft we are aware that software maintenance is lot more than meets the eye. Considering the total cost of complete software design and development, it is extremely important that the software caters both present and future needs of businesses. And that’s when the software maintenance plays a crucial role.
Software maintenance is commonly divided into three main categories:
Corrective Maintenance
Adaptive Maintenance
Perfective Maintenance
Corrective MaintenanceAdaptive MaintenancePerfective Maintenance
Corrective Maintenance
Our team will deploy and test the software for any glitches e.g. any aberration in design or any cluttered user interface or confusion is interpreting menus on dashboard. Our team will also check for any errors in logical flow in the code.
We will provide the process acceptance of the modification, by confirming the modified work with the individual who submitted the request in order to make sure the modification provided a solution.
Corrective maintenance comprise of:
Coding
Requirement gathering
System Design
Emergency repairs
Schedule repairs
Adaptive Maintenance
This is concerned with the change in the software that takes place to make the software adaptable to new environment such as to run the software on a new operating system. It consists of adapting software to changes in the environment such as the hardware or the operating systems.
Changes in regulations are another motivation for adaptive maintenance. For example; If you are changing the data format you use, it’s most certainly time to call for this service. We also can help you when you need to integrate a new operating system or have to update any supporting utilities
Perfective Maintenance
It involves making functional enhancements to the system in addition to the activities to increase the system’s performance even when the changes have not been suggested by faults.
We may restructure the code in keeping with the latest industry standards, for example, make some minor modifications, delete sections, insert new code or otherwise make changes to enhance its functionality.
Perfective maintenance comprise of:
System upgrades
Performance optimization
Converting a legacy systems to new enhance system
Emergency repairs
To that end, our team will conduct research and then design and implement any new features you need as we bring your software closer to perfection during regular maintenance cycles.
