Project Overview
PeakLogix, a provider of warehouse management solutions, initiated a project to modernize their legacy Visual Basic applications. The goal was to transition to modern .NET technologies hosted on Azure, incorporate Single Sign-On (SSO) capabilities, and revamp the front-end and back-end systems with cutting-edge frameworks and languages. The project aimed to modernize the technical stack and significantly enhance the user experience for their clients.
Challenge
PeakLogix encountered several obstacles with its existing infrastructure and systems. Firstly, the aging VB applications proved challenging to maintain and lacked the required flexibility for accommodating new feature development, hampering the company’s agility. Second, integration with client systems posed significant hurdles, as the client required seamless integration with their internal security policies and systems.
Moreover, the outdated UI detracted from user satisfaction and productivity, highlighting the need for a revamped user experience. Addressing these issues was imperative for PeakLogix to enhance its operational efficiency and meet evolving client expectations.
