It also determined the level of system acceptability based on the required application functionality, provided a fast easy way to store raw fish catch data, and generated a report that shows statistics of fish catch data monthly and annually. The system is connected to the NNARMAC Website which enables the user to post updates and news about their Coastal Area. The research process from conducting a preliminary survey to initial design until the developed system underwent evaluations, reviews, and updates. Findings revealed that the developed system has passed all the criteria based on McCall’s software quality model. It is concluded that the system is highly acceptable by the end-users and provides a fast and easy way to monitor the fish catch data.
