Project Summary

Squash Apps provided ongoing development and maintenance for a location-based business-sharing platform (StayLocal). They implemented a self-service portal, added geolocation-based redirects and integrated SendGrid, Google Analytics, Braintree, and MongoDB to extend functionality. The engagement increased user engagement metrics (thousands of posts and click metrics over 2%) and the client praised the team's communication and responsiveness.

  • Need to complete the platform, correct mistakes, and fine-tune design elements

Project Deliverables

Project Solution

Squash Apps implemented the client's UI into a self-service portal, developed geolocation-based redirect functionality for the Atmosfi page, and integrated third-party services including SendGrid, Google Analytics, Braintree, and MongoDB.
