About the client

Main challenge and our solution

Initially, the client began this project with another team, but decided to make a change when they realized they needed an implementation partner who could better understand their goals and find ways to improve the project while quickly delivering results.

Emphasoft built a highly effective team to help our client to improve the application. Using Agile methodology, we made the development process more transparent for the client and more predictable from a business perspective. Together with the clients product team we developed new features that dramatically improved user experience. Our client was able to launch new versions of the product on time.

Create the possibility of video calls with a timer in minutes, where the expert could add his schedule and set pricing.
Create an opportunity for the client to add experts to projects, create stages and tasks, attach PDF files, assign tasks to individuals, set deadlines, write comments, identify users (experts, team members, consultants).
Ability to send requests for hiring a specific expert to the service admins.

Results we delivered
