How Infectious Diseases Affect Software Development
Due to infectious diseases, the demand for digital products and software solutions has increased significantly. Many companies plan to invest heavily in the digital transformation of their businesses. What impact does Pandemic have on enterprises and people’s lives? What applications or programs does Pandemic make important? Leonit, a software development company from Lvov, Ukraine, raised such a question to IT industry experts.

Infectious diseases push enterprises into the remote office culture, increase the use of collaboration tools, and strengthen the home office strategy. Snak, GoToMeeting, WebEx and other applications are among the few that provide video conferencing and file sharing in a secure space. All business processes have been digitized, so the demand for software development has increased. To successfully handle remote business tasks, a cloud storage strategy for efficient collaborative applications is required.
As many employees use mobile devices for seamless connection in the video conference of important meetings, the role of mobile devices in this prevention has been strengthened. Many applications are compatible with Android and iOS platforms to provide users with comfort. This concept of remote operation will be extended after the end of FanDynamic. Few organizations choose hybrid workspaces and require efficient software to connect with other remote employees in the team. It is speculated that even if the epidemic ends, the demand for software development will increase significantly.

The biggest and latest thing Van Dermiek has brought to the world is blockade. Because of the blockade, the concept of “working at home” was taught. Therefore, conference applications, online learning software, virtual maps, interactive health management software, virtual reality, online games, meta universe and cloud computing are more important applications, software, tools and programs after infectious diseases.
The demand for software development has never decreased and will not decrease in the future. Software development is a technology era that provides users with the latest technology. The demand for software development in digital marketing, virtual reality, remote office, cloud computing, network, medical support and other fields is increasing.
No mobile phone is still the best use and example of the latest and modern technology. Yes, laptops and other small things have attracted much attention in the epidemic, but mobile devices are still the most popular in the world.
As mentioned above, the demand for software development will never decrease. It will only increase in the future. There are still many departments whose software development must play an important role. In addition, in order to help and help people, their needs will continue to increase.

After the start of novel coronavirus, many systems did not work as they used to. Without virtual conference applications such as Google Meetings and Zoom, it would be more difficult to work at home and in online classrooms. As a result, the demand for these applications doubled during this period.
If we talk about the requirements of software development, then the requirements have reached an unprecedented level. Because you need better software to provide a better online experience. The development should be completed as soon as possible, so that their work will not stop. The demand for software development is expected to grow by 3.5% next year. The trend may be different, but the market is always high, as long as it changes regularly.

The future of telework: With telework and telecommuting becoming one of the new business specifications, many software developers integrate remote collaboration functions into the platform. As infectious diseases force offices to adopt new public health measures, such as maintaining social distance, enterprises must try to continue to operate outside the office. This has actually led to the revival of many platforms. Because they began to readjust their goals to adapt to the enterprise environment.
Video conferencing software such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams has been added. The software suites of Google and Microsoft Office began to add remote operation functions, such as sharing the same document and view for multiple accounts in the same project. Mobile devices have also become the form of communication with conference messaging applications and the preferred choice for small or large remote teams.
E-mail is still used for large-scale notification and important communication within the company, but it is actually very convenient for platforms such as Snake and Discard to communicate in project scheduling and updating. Even if the company returns to the office, telecommuting is very beneficial to the company and employees. The software will inevitably continue to be developed to perform routine on-site and remote tasks for a long time to come.

Collaboration tools(such as Snake and Zoom) and management tools(such as Monday). Com and Trelo became an integral part of the company after the outbreak.
although many roles are automated, AI cannot replace the whole brain. There are more and more tasks and positions requiring critical thinking and solving complex problems. For example, we see an increasing demand for software development to implement vaccine management systems and online ordering systems.
Even if the epidemic ends, the digital conversion it brings will continue to change. Since working at home has become routine, the new collaboration tool Meta universe can also grow according to the needs of software developers.
