Software Project Audit and Rescue

An independent technical audit will uncover hidden issues in your project, helping you fix them and reach your goals more quickly.

Many software projects fail because hidden issues are identified too late in their lifecycle. To avoid this consider conducting an independent technical audit of your project. You will get a comprehensive report on the key technical aspects of your system, affecting stability, security, performance, cost of maintenance, and other non-functional quality attributes of your project. The report will provide a clear, straightforward explanation of all identified issues, their ramifications, and actionable recommendations for resolution.

What Issues Might An Audit Uncover?

software architecture
Bad architecture

If your software’s architecture isn’t built right, it can slow things down, limit scalability, weaken security, and become expensive to maintain. And the longer you leave it, the worse (and more costly) it gets. That’s why an independent technical audit is essential — it shows you where the problems are before they spiral out of control.

Poor code quality

Code that’s messy and full of bugs will only create more problems down the road. It makes maintenance harder, slows down new developers, and can even leave you stuck with the same dev team because no one else wants to touch the code. A software project rescue service can help clean things up and restore confidence.

Legacy technology

Using outdated tech and third-party tools might seem fine now, but it’s a ticking time bomb. It opens up security holes, adds technical debt, and makes every fix harder. Regular updates and a good software project audit can help you stay on top of it.

Low product quality

Bugs and glitches frustrate users, lead to complaints, and can cause data loss or downtime.

automated testing
No automated testing

When you rely only on manual testing, you’re slowing down releases and risking bugs slipping through. Automated tests make sure your system works — even as it grows.

Weak security

Poor security practices can result in data leaks, hacks, and financial losses — a risk every software audit should address.

development process
Disorganized development process

A messy process doesn’t just waste time and money — it almost always means missed deadlines and disappointed clients.

Poor UI/UX design

Confusing interfaces and ignoring user feedback don’t just hurt your reputation — they make customers leave.

Missing documentation

That means confusion, wasted time, and more bugs. Good docs keep your team on track and your product reliable.

Performance and scalability problems

If your system slows down as you add users, that’s a sign it wasn’t built to scale. An independent technical audit can catch these issues early.

Cloud infrastructure issues

Poor cloud infrastructure setup causes performance and scalability issues, system breakdowns, excessive infrastructure costs, and security risks.

Benefits of Conducting a Software Project Audit

Save Money

If you uncover and fix issues with your system’s security or architecture early on, you’ll save a lot of money later. A proactive software project audit means fewer expensive fixes down the road.


Motivate Your Team

Your current team will be less inclined to cut corners and sweep problems under the carpet knowing that their results are being scrutinized. Besides the audit is a great opportunity for experience exchange and consulting.


Fill Skill Gaps

As a result of the audit you may choose to involve Itexus specialists to address some of the uncovered issues in the areas where your team may lack some skills or experience.


Confidence and Trust

If no issues are identified – you will sleep better and will be able to show the detailed, professional audit report to your investors and clients as an independent confirmation of the security and quality of your product.
