Success story of Сode Inspiration

A client turned to us with the purpose to create a portal, aiming at strengthening the relationship between the parents and children or among the family members. The idea was that parents assign tasks and indicate rewards for the tasks complete.

We were happy to successfully implement the web-portal on the basis of the offered by the customer design, as well as continue our cooperation with the client, as he decided to develop native apps for iPhone and Android. Here we started with project specification.

It turned out that the functionality volume had enlarged greatly: many people were interested in the portal, but not only in the family sphere, but also work, hobby and sport. In this way, there was a need to extend the web-portal.

We took the initiative to enhance the existing UX for two screens, having made them maximum user friendly. The client appreciated it so much that ordered the full review of UI and UX according to iOS and Android guidelines.

Another project challenge the team solved was allowing the customer to save money without using an expensive virtual machine and successfully cope with the increasing load during peak hours. AWS Elastic Beanstalk service allowed to automatically allocate new server capacities according to the set rules.

Currently the application is alive and growing, and we appreciate our long-term cooperation.
