Summary: | ICTs contribute to countries in the implementation of major developments as the fulfillment of the Millennium Development
Goals. In this sense, this article aims to highlight the importance of quality in software development. To measure quality of software it is necessary to describe the parameters that establish minimum standards that a product must meet to be considered quality. The problem that arises is that most of the features that the software must meet to be considered quality are not easily quantifiable. Therefore this work provides various proposals for the development of quality software, meeting the basic features of any system FURPS (Funcionality, Usability, Reliability, Performance, Supportability). Additional standards are proposed to assess product quality and quality of software development process. In this paper we will present the methodologies Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) and ISO/IEC 9000, which are those that
mostly apply worldwide. Also the situation of Ecuadorian companies in the development of quality software is addressed.
