Following a thorough business analysis and software health check, our seasoned team will provide architecture redesign recommendations or help you select the appropriate tech stack, ensuring it matches your business processes and effectively supports your digital transformation.
Minimize Risks
Whether it is technical debt causing downtime, outdated software prone to exploitation, or user experience errors that affect conversions, all things listed increase financial, reputational, and legal risks. SysGears can review every aspect of your solution to improve compliance, stabilize operation, and increase your software competitiveness. Order audit services before your software goes live to uncover hidden risks that may affect your product’s market success.
Reduce Post-Release Costs
Your development team may change, and business needs may evolve over time, but a consistent system design and maintainable code remain a strong foundation for your software longevity. We can evaluate your solution for maintainability, extensibility, and scalability, ensuring it can be updated, modified, and scaled with minimal rework and at significantly lower costs.

How We Conduct Software Auditing
The scope and components of the software quality audit depend on the specific objectives. For each case, we offer a tailored auditing strategy that addresses your pressing needs in the most efficient way.
Discovery
First, we need to define audit goals and estimate the scope of work to be done. We hold interviews with you and your team to explore your current challenges, gather requirements, and plan the next steps. Based on the above, we assemble a team of tech and business professionals with the relevant experience and expertise to ensure an effective auditing process.
Analysis
SysGears rigorously assesses either your delivery processes or software, or both. Our experts conduct a targeted review of your system, focusing on code quality, architecture design, interface usability, performance, and other aspects, including your existing technology stack. We carefully analyze your current delivery processes and documentation to identify bottlenecks and blind spots. Beyond that, we validate the business relevance of your existing software, validating whether its components align with your current business objectives.
Report Preparation and Presentation
Drawing on our findings, we prepare a software audit report that contains the issues spotted, a high-level action plan, as well as steps to follow and time estimates. We make this stage iterative, involving continuous discussions, verifications, testing, and adjustment of the suggested solutions. Such an approach ensures that the proposed improvement strategy effectively addresses the challenges you face, and all project participants remain on the same page.
Implementation and Control
We can guide your in-house team during the post-audit stage, monitoring implementation of the suggested recommendations to ensure changes are made as planned. If needed, our seasoned experts can join your team on a temporary basis to speed up the implementation and maximize efficiency.

FAQ
What is the purpose of a software audit?
A software audit is a comprehensive examination of a software product, verifying that it meets established coding practices, complies with relevant security requirements, performs as expected, and aligns with the user needs and business objectives. The software audit also evaluates delivery processes to identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and opportunities for improvement. SysGears conducts both software health checks and holistic reviews of existing project workflows, helping businesses minimize risks, prevent revenue loss, and enhance their solution’s quality.
What do your software audit services cover?
SysGears provides holistic audit services around the entire SDLC. Here are the most common types:
- Architecture audit
- Code quality audit
- Performance and scalability audit
- UI and UX audit
- QA audit
- SDLC process audit
- Documentation review
- Deployment and release process audit
What should I consider before ordering a software audit?
You need to start by setting a clear goal for the software audit, whether it aims at identifying code deficiencies, scaling problems, user experience issues, and the like. Next, pre-evaluate the scope of work to be done and its urgency, and assess whether your existing team has enough capacity and expertise to keep the audit in-house. If not, consider outsourcing to a seasoned software development team like SysGears. We will carefully review your software product or delivery processes, assess the possible impact, costs, risks, and benefits associated with prospective changes.
How do you audit QA processes?
Quality assurance audit involves evaluation of the existing testing procedures, documentation, and tools to improve team productivity, reduce risks of rework, ensure compliance with standards, and thus optimize long-term costs. As soon as the audit is complete, we prepare a comprehensive report that contains a summary of the work performed, audit results with issues ranked by importance, recommendations for test process improvements, and an action plan containing specific measures, time frames, and responsibilities for each activity.
What are the benefits of hiring an independent software audit partner rather than keeping it in-house?
The third-party vendor provides an unbiased analysis of your software, uncovering issues that the in-house development team might overlook. SysGears is a team of professionals with extensive industry experience and the latest technology expertise, which allows us to analyze your processes from a wider perspective. Our team onboards fast and can be scaled if needed, freeing up your in-house resources and delivering measurable results from day one.
How much do you charge for your software audit services?
The final price of our software audit services is not fixed, but rather defined by multiple factors, including the scope of work to be completed, software complexity, and your specific objectives. Before preparing an estimate, we suggest discussing your project in more detail. Let’s schedule a meeting at any convenient time!
