Audit – Quick Clarity for Running Systems

Software Audit: Identify Problems, Prioritize Solutions

Your system is running – but something isn't right. Performance issues you can't pinpoint. Recurring incidents without a clear root cause. Developers complaining about poor code quality. Security concerns that nobody can quantify. A software audit sheds light on the situation: We analyze your system systematically and deliver a prioritized list of problems and solution approaches – from quick wins that take immediate effect to strategic measures for long-term stability.

Our audits are not generic checklist exercises, but focused analyses with a clear question. What do you want to know? Why are load times so poor? Where does most technical debt accumulate? Which security risks are critical? How can we release faster? Based on your question, we define the scope, analyze code, architecture, infrastructure, and processes, and document our findings with severity, business impact, and estimated remediation effort.

The result is not a PowerPoint presentation that ends up in a drawer, but an actionable report: concrete measures prioritized by urgency and ROI, with clear action recommendations. You don't just get a list of problems, but also a realistic plan for how to fix them – whether with us, your internal team, or another provider. We have no interest in creating artificial dependencies, but in delivering real value to you.

The typical audit process takes 1-2 weeks and costs between EUR 3,000 and 8,000, depending on scope and complexity. After a brief kick-off where we clarify the question and access, we mostly work asynchronously and reach out with interim questions as needed. At the end, we present our findings in a joint call and deliver a written report that serves as the basis for your next steps. Many of our audit clients decide to implement individual measures with us afterward – but that's not a prerequisite and not hidden upselling.
