Automotive Industry Sales SaaS Application

Webapper provides full-stack development, hosting and support services.

21st Century Software: Combining Cloud and Craftsmanship

Long-time automotive industry experts came up with an idea to unlock the data in dealer management system software, in a way that would yield more sales and profits for dealerships. They had the idea, and a first version of desktop software to prove it out with real-word customers. But in order to make it into a successful and sustainable product, they needed not only a software team with a modern delivery process, but also a hosting infrastructure that would meet the data and scaling demands of a growing SaaS product.

THE CHALLENGE

Our customer needed:

Aggregate disparate data sources into a single, high-speed, scalable data model.
Build a user interface with a workflow allowing for rapid decision-making, resulting in increased sales and profits.
Build a highly available and scalable hosting infrastructure to meet the demands of a growing user base.
Provide a modern, cloud-based delivery system, for continuous maintenance of the application.

THE SOLUTION

Webapper exceeded the customer’s expectations:

Built a multi-source automotive marketplace data importer, with separate hosting and failover from the user-facing application.
Built a user-centric interface, with advanced capabilities for searching, filtering and reporting on complex sales data, and mobile-ready as well.
Built a “true cloud” multi-data center hosting system.
Since 2014, provided an agile software process, supported by cloud delivery mechanisms.
Automatically-redundant, autoscaling, self-healing infrastructure.

THE FUTURE

Webapper continues to:

Extend the system with new initiatives.
Support and service the platform.
Optimize performance in the cloud.

We knew that continuing our growth meant finding a partner to guide us through our cloud transformation. We realized we couldn’t just lift and shift the application. We needed to reconfigure our application so that it could scale. Webapper understood our technical requirements and listened to our needs. Then they designed a solution that we felt gave us the best chance to succeed.

We definitely recommend Webapper to others. Webapper is a top-notch website design firm that also houses and manages the infrastructure needed to power the site. When we first saw our website, we loved how modern and colorful it looked, a good contrast to text information that our firm displays on the website. The cost was reasonable. The service was outstanding. The team there is fun to work with, and their responsiveness is excellent. Overall, it’s been a pleasure working with them.
