Color formulation management software
THE CUSTOMER
THE REQUIREMENTS
The client wanted a web-based implementation of their paint and color formulation management software. Multiple existing desktop-based solutions were to be integrated into a web platform with a modern user interface. This would enable the company to reach new customers, so end-user feedback was to be taken into account during the design of the UI.
THE CHALLENGE
One of our challenges was to ensure that we provide quality work and a reliable solution while keeping up with the pace of a fast-growing project and continuous customer feedback. Based on strong communication with the customer, we implemented the required functionality and continue to support the application with improvements and new features.
