FOCUS AREA

Challenge, approach, and impact

  • Complex Architecture and Network of Connections

    The e-magazine and teaching materials platform feature extensive architecture with a dense network of connections between functions. Managing and maintaining such a complex system was challenging due to the intricate dependencies and potential risks associated with making changes.

  • Global User Base

    Both products are used daily by thousands of users around the world. Ensuring seamless access for such a large and diverse user base demands careful planning and execution to prevent disruptions and maintain user satisfaction.

  • Continuous Maintenance

    Continuous application maintenance work is essential to guarantee uninterrupted access. This includes not only routine software updates but also the implementation of various types of automated tests, including end-to-end, regression, and performance tests. Ensuring that these tests are effective and robust is a constant challenge.

  • User Experience Enhancement

    To meet evolving user needs, there is a desire to improve the User Experience (UX) by adapting the platform for people with disabilities. This involves a thorough review and redesign of the application interface, which can be a complex task to ensure inclusivity and compliance with accessibility standards.

  • Migration to AWS Platform

    The decision to migrate the teaching materials platform introduces a series of challenges. This includes the need to develop technical documentation, create a migration plan, and prepare the system for the transition. Migrations of this scale can be time-consuming and require meticulous planning to avoid data loss and service interruptions.

  • Interdisciplinary Collaboration

    The project's scope touches upon many business areas, requiring effective communication and collaboration between various stakeholders. This includes the FINGO development team, external IT solution providers, and client-side personnel. Coordinating efforts and aligning objectives across these diverse groups can be challenging.

Testimonials

“Our unique partnership with the client thrived for nearly four years. During that time, we cooperated closely with the client to deliver a fresh and innovative version of the teacher web portal. With mobile-first development, multi-level QA automation and one-click deployment, we seamlessly delivered new application iterations for end users. We also worked on migrating the subscription system from Zuora to Stripe. It is worth underlining a testament to the client's trust in FINGO. We were asked to delegate two Tech Leaders who oversaw projects and nurtured blended teams (a mix of developers from FINGO and the client). In that, we were able to reduce the probability of unexpected events by ensuring early and transparent communication with various teams working on the client's side. It is an unusual and underrated client project management approach, but very efficient. We appreciate the great trust the client placed in us. “ Read more
