Goal
The goal of the project was to provide a financial advisory knowledge sharing application which would enable and facilitate partners and directors to share their knowledge about potential opportunities, to stock a large amount of information and documents, and handle a large number of users without compromising the performance of the app. The app has to be interactive, easy to navigate, enable real-time communication and offer a great end-user experience irrespective of the device.
Solution
Considering the client’s requirements, we planned and developed an easy-to-use knowledge sharing application, which brings the partners, directors and shareholders at one place. The project was aligned with a dedicated project manager to ensure delivery on time. Before the delivery, the app has been robustly tested to provide no errors.
Xamarin was implemented by our team to develop a windows application with secure mobile API interface, allowing secure mobile access. Azure was chosen to provide the identity service to allow for members to sign up themselves and for the capability to allow the organization’s staff to sign in with their Office 365/Azure AD logins.
