Project Summary
STX Next provided programming services for portals and blogs and developed a custom backend for a financial-services client's proprietary solution. The vendor delivered two to three blogs and backend systems, which produced roughly a 5–10% increase in engagement and served as a lead-generation channel. The engagement ran from Jan. 2008 to Jan. 2014, with an average team of about eight to ten Python developers and project managers coordinating from both sides.
Key Challenges
- The client required a lighter, more flexible development partner than the parent company could provide
Project Deliverables
- Programming work for portals and blogs
- Custom backend development for the client's proprietary solution
- Ongoing backend maintenance
