    ‘Quality’ in software is best answered by looking at it under the headings of:

    Functionality – what does it do?
    Reliability – few bugs
    Usability – eg convenient menus etc
    Scalability – can we add to it as the business expands
    Maintainability – what if tax laws change? Can it be easily adapted?
    Platform – there’s no point in buying something that only runs on Apple machines if you are using Window’s based machines.
