Essential attributes of good software
Product characteristic Description

Maintainability Software should be written in such a way so that it can evolve to meet the changing needs of
customers. This is a critical attribute because software change is an inevitable requirement of a
changing business environment.

Dependability and security Software dependability includes a range of characteristics including reliability, security and safety.
Dependable software should not cause physical or economic damage in the event of system
failure. Malicious users should not be able to access or damage the system.

Efficiency Software should not make wasteful use of system resources such as memory and processor
cycles. Efficiency therefore includes responsiveness, processing time, memory utilisation, etc.

Acceptability Software must be acceptable to the type of users for which it is designed. This means that it must
be understandable, usable and compatible with other systems that they use.
