Project Summary

Umbrella IT designed and developed a scalable web-based property estimation tool for a real-estate lead generation firm using Node.js. The platform guides users through a multistep, conditional form to produce a rough estimate of a property's value and supports user accounts. The client praised Umbrella IT's project management, availability, and large resource pool that enabled quick developer replacement and ongoing collaboration.

Key Challenges

Define every process for the platform, including its look and the functions of user accounts

Project Deliverables

User account functionality

Project Solution

Umbrella IT handled end-to-end work from design to Node.js development.
