Our Approach

Considering the need of integrating the existing systems and workflows into the new proposed system, the critical factor for the successful acceptance of the new formulated system was the answer to some critical questions
MoonValley – Multistore ECommerce Platform

The very obvious very first step was to conduct the User Workshops. Within these workshops, we understood how the present systems were being used. What the customer loves and hates about the present system. What features, requirements and workflows are expected from the new system.

The key Outcome of this step was BRD (Business Requirement Definition) document which clearly mentioned all the features, workflows, challenges and key expectations from the new system.

Once all the requirements were collected, the immediate next step was to do a technical and architectural design of the system. The key aspect while doing a technical architecture design were
  • Technology Matrix for the optimum performance and intuitive UI/UX
  • Setup and Infrastructure
  • System integration model with consideration of security and performance
  • Backups and fallback mechanisms
Outcome was the TRS (Technical Research Specification) Document that highlighted all these aspects along with the possible cost estimates of setting up and scaling up of the estimates.

With so much details on hand the one thing that can still go wrong is the usability of the newly designed system. UX is the thin line between acceptance and rejection of the system. Moreover, the customer had a very high expectation from the Lead Generation Tool.

So, we created a non-working system for the customer to use and play with. This helped us gather a lot of information pre-hand and re-align the screen flows, which if identified later would have swirled up the whole system.

Outcome was the NFP that was accepted by the user and was technically evaluated by the development team, leaving no ambiguity or surprises at the either ends. Based on this the system was taken into development.

The development engineers took the system into development in Agile mode. Periodic reporting sessions were conducted with the customer during development phase wherein developments were demoed, challenges and any delays were discussed along with the mitigation plans.

After completing development, quality assurance, internal testing, and user acceptance testing, we implemented an app deployment and rolled out the strategy in the Apple and Android markets.

The Solution

Keeping ideology and requirements in mind, we managed to implement the client’s vision. Built on a highly intuitive platform, MVN ensures highly effective yet efficient features. With a strategic, customer-centric approach and simple UI/UX, it completely redefines the way of lead generation. We have also eliminated outdated and traditional techniques while enhancing the experience.
CodeEpsilon’s MVN Backyard Builder provided the right direction for the client’s vision and even narrowed down the end user’s pain points.
By choosing us as a trusted partner for ecommerce and mobile app development, Moon Valley Nurseries are now able to grow their business, resources and online user base with the next generation interactive landscape design tool and use the III party system seamlessly with the newly build Ecommerce Platform and Lead Generation tool, increasing staff efficiency.
