Client

Pixrit

Charleston, United States of America

Project Summary

Syberry developed Pixrit, a browser-heavy photography and social media management platform, using MySQL, PHP, and JavaScript and integrated multiple social APIs for sharing. They handled predevelopment and design work, produced detailed reports, and provided ongoing maintenance and support. The platform launched in April 2017, proved highly stable, and received overwhelmingly positive user feedback; the client also praised Syberry’s communication and professionalism.

Key Challenges

No existing comparable platform existed, so the client needed a partner to build a novel photo-sharing solution
Client needed to identify an appropriate technology stack rather than defaulting to WordPress
Integration with social media APIs posed technical uncertainty and risk
Limited initial budget for marketing constrained post-launch growth

Project Deliverables

Photography web platform built with MySQL, PHP, and JavaScript
Integration of multiple social media APIs for sharing
Predevelopment and design work including detailed reports
Ongoing maintenance and support post-launch

Project Solution

Syberry developed the client's browser-heavy photography platform using MySQL, PHP, and JavaScript, executing a predevelopment/design phase and producing detailed reports. They integrated multiple social media APIs to enable sharing, ran development with a distributed team (management based in Austin, development in Belarus), and provided ongoing maintenance and support after launch.

Project Outcome

Product launched successfully in April 2017 and experienced strong early user adoption via word of mouth
Users provided overwhelmingly positive feedback and frequent praise for the product's quality and ease of management
Platform proved highly stable with rare issues, most stemming from external social media API changes
Project tracked to schedule and Syberry maintained consistent communication and project management via Jira and Basecamp
