Project Summary

STX Next rebuilt an events-focused SaaS platform from the ground up, delivering a new MVP and a microservices-based architecture that supports API integrations and responsive frontends. The vendor collaborated on story mapping and a walking skeleton, worked in an Agile manner with the client’s internal team, and has an ongoing engagement. The modernized product drove increased sales and enabled larger festival customers to sign up.
