Project Summary

ElifTech supplements a regulated financial-services firm's technical resources, initially developing an API and subsequently refactoring the company's MEAN-stack website. The vendor replaced Angular.js components with Ruby on Rails, hosts instances on AWS, and provides ongoing on-demand development and support. The client praises ElifTech's responsiveness, project management, and professionalism, and has retained them as their main tech provider since March 2019.

Project Solution

ElifTech developed an initial API as a side project and, after its success, was contracted to refactor the client's MEAN-stack website. They replaced some Angular.js components with Ruby on Rails, maintained the client's WordPress blog, and host all instances on AWS. ElifTech supplies different development teams per project and currently provides a developer, a project manager, and a backup developer while also coordinating with their CEO.
