Weakness of Traditional Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC)

Almost the same as any other industry standards, system development life cycle has advantages and disadvantages. The surplus is the sequential steps that allows system developers to focus on the I step first, and after moving to the next step. For beginners this approach is very useful. But there are some disadvantages as a result and these sequential steps, including:

1. Too wasteful, and in terms of both cost and time, when there are changes when the system has been developed. This is due to a change in one phase will result in a later stage. Thus, the SDLC must be implemented with the assumption that each stage should not be mistaken.
2. SDLC is a method that requires a structured approach to follow all the steps there. If developers want a faster manufacturing process by eliminating one or more steps then the result is a system built to fail.
