Boxforward: Warehouse & Freight Forwarding Logistics System Development

Challenge

Shop And Ship LLC has been developing a new version of the service to replace a technically outdated one, which was too difficult and expensive to support and extend with new functionality. The Client started work on the new version with another team; however, he wasn’t satisfied with the team as they couldn’t develop the system on time and make it of good quality.

IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY

‍Testing of the service, its new functions was superficial and many of the internal problems were not revealed which led to the unstable work of the application.

ENSURE SECURITY

The Client wanted payment transactions and users’ personal information to be protected with the most advanced protocols.

SOLVE UPDATE ISSUES

All changes in the web application had been performed on the production only leading to malfunctions of the service.
