      • ease of use
        • easier or time saving preferred
        • Untitled
        • many software not used fully because too complex
      • Security
        • must consider types of data they're storing
    • Performance
      • elderly person will not consider performance
      • graphics designer will look for higher performance
    • Availability
      • there when you want it
        • e-commerce has allowed businesses to be open at all times
      • always on means always available
    • User needs
      • simplified user interface if staff aren't confident with IT
      • password protected systems for sensitive data
      • may need developer to use existing software

        • User needs
          • simplified user interface if staff aren't confident with IT
          • password protected systems for sensitive data
          • may need developer to use existing software
      • system for a hotel wouldn't need high processing power but would need lots of storage
    • Compatibility
      • specification of the hardware affects choice of software
      • compatibility means that where two or more things need to connect can do so
        • failing to check compatibility can be costly
    • Connectivity
      • an individual may choose something based on its ability to connect to the internet or network reliably
        • having a system that relies on wired connection when there are none available would be useless
      • VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network, behaves like a WAN
    • Efficiency
      • How efficient a system needs to be depends on requirements of customers
    • Implementation
      • type of system may depend on speed of implementation
        • business may prefer a system that retains elements of their current system
