choosing the right software development partner can make or break your project. Whether you're building a mobile app, a custom management system, an e-commerce platform, or a full digital transformation solution — the company you choose will determine your speed, quality, and long-term success.
With so many agencies in Jordan promising “the best service,” it’s hard to know who actually delivers. That’s why we created this guide: 10 essential questions that every business should ask before hiring a development company.
These questions will help you avoid costly mistakes, protect your investment, and choose a partner who will build software that grows with your business.
1. Do They Understand Your Industry and Business Goals?
A good software company doesn’t just write code — they understand your business model.
A partner should ask questions like:
-
What problems are you trying to solve?
-
How do your customers interact with your service?
-
What does success look like for your business?
If they jump straight into “we can build it,” that’s a red flag.
2. Do They Show a Strong Portfolio With Real Case Studies?
Always ask for:
✔ Live websites
✔ Mobile apps on App Store / Google Play
✔ Real dashboards
✔ Before/after results
A serious company will proudly showcase work similar to your project.
If the portfolio is weak, outdated, or unavailable — walk away.
3. What Tech Stack Do They Use, and Why?
Your project should be built using modern, scalable technology, such as:
-
Laravel, Node.js, Python
-
React, Vue.js, Next.js
-
Flutter or React Native
-
PostgreSQL, MySQL
-
Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD
Avoid companies stuck on outdated tools or templates.
4. Will You Own the Source Code?
This is critical.
Some companies in Jordan build your system, but keep the code, forcing you to stay with them forever.
You should always own:
✔ Source code
✔ Database
✔ UI files
✔ API documentation
If they refuse → find another partner.
5. What Is Their Development Process?
A professional company follows clear stages:
-
Discovery & requirements
-
UI/UX design
-
Development
-
Testing
-
Deployment
-
Maintenance
-
Support
If they “just start coding,” your project is at risk of delays and quality issues.
6. How Do They Communicate and Provide Updates?
Ask:
-
Do we get weekly updates?
-
Will we have a project dashboard?
-
Who is our main contact?
Good communication = smooth project.
Poor communication = delays & surprises.
7. Do They Offer Long-Term Support and Maintenance?
After launch, every system needs:
-
Bug fixes
-
Security updates
-
New features
-
Performance optimizations
Make sure they provide clear support plans, not just “call us if something breaks.”
8. What Security Standards Do They Follow?
Your partner should follow best practices like:
✔ Secure authentication
✔ Encrypted databases
✔ Server hardening
✔ Regular backups
✔ API security
✔ GDPR-friendly standards
Weak security can lead to data loss, breaches, and business downtime.
9. Do They Provide a Clear Timeline and Transparent Pricing?
Ask for:
-
A milestone timeline
-
A detailed cost breakdown
-
Payment schedule
-
What is included / excluded
Beware of companies offering extremely low prices — they usually cut corners, outsource cheaply, or deliver unfinished work.
10. Can They Scale With Your Growth?
Your business will grow — will your system grow with it?
Choose a partner that can support:
-
More users
-
More features
-
More branches
-
More integrations
-
More automation
-
Cloud scaling
A strong technical team helps your business evolve, not limit it.
