A case on the creation of an interactive visualization of the residential complex plan in cooperation with a designer. The project goal is to attract the attention of potential buyers by offering them an attractive information presentation format.

In the fall of 2021, we implemented the programming part of the River Properties website visualization.

Client story.

The well-known Riga developer is engaged in the reconstruction and renovation of pre-war and wooden city buildings.

To start sales in a new facility, an interactive visualization for floors and apartment plans had to be created on the website.

So that potential customers can interactively see the apartments available for sale and their parameters.

The project was interesting because we worked in close cooperation with a professional designer, HoneyHoney offered by the customer. The designer fully developed the necessary graphics. Our task was to create a code infrastructure for it.

Our solution.

It was decided to create several pages:

• The home page of the facility with an interactive building image. A potential buyer could choose the floor on it. Pages with floor plans of apartments. All available apartments are interactive. By clicking on them, the user sees the details (area, price).
• At the programming stage, we encountered technical difficulties. Since the company's website was designed on the WIX platform, we had to adapt the code so that the visualization would work properly on this platform in any browser.

This project has become a unique development specifically for CMS WIX regarding all the customer's requirements. The implementation took about 2 weeks.

Summary.

The project was implemented for WIX. It works properly in all browsers. We programmed the interactive part in such a way that the website administrator can make the necessary changes by changing the status of apartments to booked and sold.

In 2020, we created a business system for our client, which allowed their team to significantly simplify and automate work on projects. The system improved the interaction between the Customer, the Vendor and the Manager. And reduced the bureaucratic burden on all participants in the process.

Our client is a leader in the field of legal, informational, business, government, insurance and medical translations in 44 languages of the world. The work of the agency is based on the involvement of professionals, native speakers in the format of remote work.

Client story.

With the growth of the number of employees and the ordered translation services, the company faced certain difficulties:

• Work with projects was not organized, and data was stored in different places. Some data was stored in mailboxes. Individual versions of documents were stored in folders on different media. Access to tables and data was incomplete.
• Managers experienced difficulties in determining the translation status, the lack of clear deadlines and the ability to promptly manage the entire process, from receiving an order to deliver a completed translation, its acceptance and payment for it.

Therefore, together with the customer, we found out that the company needs an internal system where all the details of the deal on a translation should be recorded and displayed in real time.

Our solution.

• To unite all participants in the process into a single internal B2B system
• To create separate roles for different access levels: Client, Vendor, Manager and Admin
• To create a dynamic timeline for project readiness tracking by managers
• To integrate the Zoho Books product into the internal business system

All details of the system project were developed individually for the client. The system was developed from scratch for a thoughtful design in terms of convenience and functionality.

Excerpt.

A case about creating a B2B system for Latvian travel companies. Or how a tour operator can always display actual prices. And how to optimize the staff working time for coordinating the tour with the client.

In 2019 we at 2410 developed a B2B system for our customer - a tour operator in Latvia. This system was developed for end customers and travel agents. It helped to change the tour approving mechanism by e-mail to a convenient platform with up-to-date prices and a beautiful trip visualization.

Client story.

In 2017, we started working with a Latvian tour operator*, which already served about 25,000 customers on a regular basis.

When organizing tours, the company had to consider the current prices for flights and hotels, which are constantly changing. If the prices at the time of the tour are outdated or irrelevant, the company will receive less profit or even incur losses. Because it risks its own finances by issuing the tour and transferring it to travel agents for sale to end customers.

• During cooperation, we found out the following:
• The company's staff is forced to monitor flight and accommodation price changes daily.
• All calculations are also being done manually and are entered into Google Sheets. Huge amounts of working tables makes it difficult to work.
• There is a high risk of the "human factor": like mistakes and prices do not always change promptly.
• The company provides a range of hotels within one tour, but they are coordinated with the client by email. This not only affects the company’s reputation, but also takes up the time of both the employee and the customer.

Summary.

1. We reduced the time for checking and updating prices. 
2. We reduced the risk of errors by eliminating the "human factor".
3. We integrated the system with the website to synchronize the fresh prices for air tickets, accommodation and tours.

Need to organize more than 350 decorations for wedding celebrations and to make the creative work of wedding decorators easier? Done!

This case is about how to automate warehouse accounting. And open the access to it to employees and also to wedding decorations tenants.

Client story.

Our client is a wedding decor agency that applied to us in 2018 with a non-trivial task. Over the years of its existence, the company has decorated hundreds of weddings and accumulated a large amount of decorations.

Its employees develop designs of banquet halls or exit ceremonies, making turnkey wedding celebrations.

The main problem the customer faced was the lack of a unified management system that would allow decorators to see certain elements in the warehouse to use them in their decor.

This was important because the company has always started several orders for the decoration of celebrations at the same time. And designers must make sure that the props for their projects will be in stock on the right day.

Our solution.

Since the customer quite clearly and in detail stated the requirements for the future product, our tasks were to develop the design and to implement technical solutions.

As a result of close cooperation, we were able to create a platform with the specified parameters and offered to implement some additional modules, which we will discuss here later.

How to speed up and simplify the preparation of goods for placement on online trading platforms? Our case for our client – a seller of spare parts for BMW cars – is about this.

95% of the company's sales are carried out online. This is more than 10,000 items. To automate and speed up the placement of new products on eBay, we developed a system with the eBay Commerce API, which increased the number of product posts from 15 to 100 per day.

Client story.

Our client is a company specializing in the online sale of spare parts for BMW cars worldwide. For sales, the company uses the popular international eBay marketplace.

The company's product catalog includes more than 10,000 items. The more goods the manager publishes, the more profitable it is for business. The process of placing the goods consists of the following steps:

• photographing details and preparing images for posts;
• product description (filling in the title and description fields), delivery rates and much more;
• posting it on eBay.

Our solution.

As eBay has its own API, we can automate most of the manager's work. We offered to combine all the stages of creating and posting a product in a single system. This would allow users to automatically generate product cards and post them on eBay.

With the eBay Commerce API, we developed a unique system, which made the work of managers easier, and minimized the risk of errors.

The project took 2 months.

Summary.

The created business system significantly accelerated the work of managers. It also made it more effective.

Before using the system, an employee published about 15 products per day. After that, the employee technically publishes about 100 products per day.

A case on creating an internal business system for a ventilation system manufacturer. Or on how to save working hours of specialists for commercial proposal preparation.

In 2021, at 2410 agency, we developed a B2B system / online calculator for our customer - a manufacturing company. It can perform geometric calculations and create bids in seconds.

Client story.

Our client specializes in the design and construction of ventilation systems for large construction projects (shopping centers, industrial buildings, warehouses and multifunctional complexes).

Data for the correct final calculation is prepared in a special program. Employees manually enter each element, its dimensions, material and additional parameters into it. The area of each element is multiplied by the price rate, and the result is the total cost.

It takes about 2-3 days of specialists' work. It is unreasonably long and expensive for simply stating the price for the project in the end. The company's request was whether the process could be automated and accelerated.

Our solution.

The main solution development priority was given to mathematical calculations, which are performed when processing user data.

Therefore, the interface is created from ready-made blocks in the Material Design style - reflecting only the main functions.

Here, the manager can download an example of the imported file and receive additional instructions on formatting from it.

Summary.

As a result, the customer received a ready-made business system, which greatly simplified the bid preparation process. The calculator instantly calculates project cost, and the manager spends less time preparing the final document.

Now the company's customers can receive bids within a few hours, rather than a few days, as it was before.

Applying for a driver's license for immigrants in Ireland is a rather complicated process. Especially if the future driver does not know English well enough. This case is about how we created an online tool for teaching traffic rules in Russian and Romanian.

The customer provided testing services on driving theory in offline format. To expand the audience, it was necessary to transform it into an online tool. We developed a programmatic part of a personal account with paid access to training tests.

Client story.

A feature of obtaining a license in Ireland is the absence of driving schools. First, the future driver takes a theoretical exam on traffic rules and then hires a private instructor for practical training.

Many migrants face the following problems:

• Not good enough English
• Difficult search for materials on traffic regulations in Ireland in their own language

The main source of information is books and disks with test questions. However, both are published mostly in English. Russian-speakers, for instance, do not always justify the invested funds. The electronic version is submitted in PDF format. It excludes its use in the format of interactive tests.

Our solution.

As a result, we implemented several solutions:

• Creating a website with a personal account
• Access to 30 free questions with answers
• Paid subscription with full access to the test database
• The choice of the test language - Russian/Romanian
• The opportunity to take the time limited test

We developed the project in SaaS format - users could work with a ready-made solution online using only a browser. The customer got the opportunity to attract a wider audience and keep the data up-to-date.

It was a unique solution. We developed the design, functions and programmatic parts for it.

Buying and selling cryptocurrency for cash can be greatly simplified by automating basic operations. This case is on how we developed an internal system with a database, which saved employees' time when making transactions.

In the spring of 2021, our client contacted us with a request to create a web application for internal use. We managed to develop a system, which collected and stored a lot of data and sent it to the cash register to complete transactions.

Client story.

Our client specializes in buying/selling cryptocurrencies for cash. Various types of digital currencies can be sold or bought at the company office.

During our cooperation, the company offered the following virtual currencies for exchange:

• BTC - Bitcoin
• ETH - Ethereum
• USDT - Tether

The company's specificity of activity is that it exchanges digital currency for cash.

At the beginning of our cooperation, the company described the problem it faced.

To make one exchange transaction, the company's employees had to spend a lot of time entering data into the system. This always entails a high risk of error, which should not be admitted during transactions with cryptocurrencies.

In addition to a lot of data, the difficulty was that it had to be entered several times (additionally to the cash register).

The company set us the task of automating this process, simplifying it, and setting up communication with the cash register.

Summary.

Thanks to our development, the transaction processing time was reduced, and employees managed to make transactions faster. Now they do not have to enter data many times. The system does most of the work in automatic mode.

If necessary, the application can be modified and supplemented with new cryptocurrencies.

A case about creating a website template from layout for the WordPress platform. Our customers – marketing, advertising, design and SEO agencies – offer their clients marketing support, advertising services and SEO promotion. Their specialists create an individual website design, and we make a programming part for it.

When creating websites, it is important to exactly match the designed layout. To do this, we use the Pixel Perfect approach.

Client story.

Agencies offering a range of services to promote a company on the Internet often turn to third-party developers to create a website. For their clients, they create design layouts, which in the future need to be converted as a valid template for CMS WordPress.

We are provided with image files in Figma / Photoshop / Adobe Illustrator / Adobe XD programs and others for our work.

As a result, we create a template according to WordPress coding standards, as well as an operational WordPress site using this template. We use a testing WordPress website to demonstrate the developed template.

Our solution.

The WordPress platform offers many paid and free website design templates, but they are not suitable for custom development. Especially, when you need to create an original, personalized website using the custom design layout.

The Pixel Perfect is important here. According to this approach, all elements of the website, including margins, font sizes, line heights, image sizes and object placement, shall match the layout to within a few pixels.

We offered the customers the following:

• To make up the visual part of the website with the Pixel Perfect approach
• To develop a programming part based on the WordPress coding standards. And build the installable template for WordPress platform.

The case on how to add an online calculator to the website to increase user loyalty and attract new customers.

What is the purpose of the business calculator? It increases the engagement of potential customers, answers their basic questions and allows calculating the approximate cost of services.

In 2021, our client contacted us with a request to create a customs clearance calculator. Using only their formulas from the Excel file, we developed programming and visual parts.

Client story.

Our client is engaged in customs clearance of goods, cars, small parcels (DHL, Post) at the airport, sea port and all over Latvia. Initially, the company had a request for a specialized online calculator that would allow website visitors to calculate the approximate cost of customs clearance.

Purpose of adding the calculator:

• To take an interest of clients and keep their attention
• To allow them to independently calculate the service cost
• To attract "warm" customers who already know the price
• To reduce the workload on staff due to inappropriate requests

The prospect is the development of generic calculators that can be applied to any business in the service industry. In fact, the calculator is a ready-made request form. It answers the following question, "How much does the service cost?" automatically, without a manager.

The customer's problem was that all the calculation data was stored in an Excel file, and it was impossible to insert it into the website properly. The customer did not want to use third-party online calculator constructors (for example, Calconic, JotForm, etc.), for several reasons:

This case is about how we created and improved the website based on a design layout received from an outsourced designer.

At the beginning of 2018, we started cooperating with a retail company. Having worked with third-party designers, they were able to provide us with an original website layout. We implemented the project in full accordance with the design and improved its functions.

Client story.

Our client specializes in the wholesale and retail sale of tiles and provides services for the creation of design projects and the repair work.

At the beginning of our cooperation, the company owned an outdated website that did not meet the requirements and did not correspond to the specifics of its activities.

A little earlier, the company collaborated with designers who developed the layout of the future website in PSD format (Photoshop). Due to certain reasons, like a long development time, the customer decided to find new software developers.

He found important the following:

• Using a ready-made design (it was paid for and met its requirements)
• The identity of the website visual part to the layout
• Turnkey layout with the necessary functions for the website in a short time
  
  

Our solution.

This is not the first time we have been working in this format. All our projects were accepted by customers as fully consistent with the tasks set.

We became performers of this project, having developed a turnkey website based on the PSD layouts provided in 2 months. We also added several sections and improved design functions so that the result corresponds to the customer's business objectives.

During HTML coding of the website, we were guided by the well-known Pixel Perfect concept. You can learn about this approach in our Pixel perfect WordPress template development project.
