Challenge

Our client is a leading cloud-based web application provider based in California, USA. The client develops innovative apps catering to users from diverse industries. The client aimed to develop an application that boosts students’ performance during school and at home. They wanted to develop an app that would keep students, teachers and parents updated with the progress of the student, his/her homework status, attendance via visual snapshot, behaviour, and subject progress reports.

This web-based application was intended for the teachers and their management to track all the homework, replacing an existing paper planner system. Students and parents are expected to regularly check the app for new messages, homework tasks, and student achievement updates.

Key challenges of the project were:

  • To communicate seamlessly between existing SIMS software and our platform.
  • To process integration of school data with SIMS software and link up with our platform
  • To efficiently synchronize data during school time
  • To instantly notify and broadcast important news
  • Parental control of student activity
