Case Study: MS Azure-Based Multi-Tenant ERP App for Multi-Location IT Rental Business in India

The client is located in India and has been in business for nearly thirty (30) years. Its core business is the rental of IT hardware and equipment and support services for that equipment.

The client wished to develop a new application to support a multi-tenant architecture and sell the application as a solution to other companies in the rental business. The existing application was not scalable, and it was missing core components and architecture to support multi-tenant use.

Elegant MicroWeb worked with the client team to define and document requirements and a road map for the implementation of this new multi-tenant enterprise-wide ERP application. The solution is a cloud-based, multi-tenant system based on MS Azure, which can be accessed from any one of the client branches. The solution is designed to enable roll out of this solution to client customers in the future. The project was completed on time and on budget with seamless migration of data from the old system and no business disruption. The project outcome provided positive impact in the areas of productivity, user adoption and satisfaction and accuracy of reporting and planning.

Case Study: Business Software Company, Elegant MicroWeb Builds Digital Library Portal for Gujarat Tourism, India

The Gujarat Tourism organization promotes tourism within the state and provides support for visitors and residents with comprehensive travel assistance and services including accommodation, conducted tours and ground transport and a wide range of choice to meet the diverse needs of visitors and to promote the many historic sites and sites of interest in Gujarat. As part of this charter, The Tourism Corporation of Gujarat generates extensive digital content in the form of videos, photos and images, brochures, documentaries, advertisements and other data. In the past, the users of the tourism department had to engage in a complicated manual process to review each data repository one-by-one and select content because there was no one tool to easily search integrated data or allow users to share content with other stakeholders.

The Elegant MicroWeb team built and implemented a centralized digital library portal to categorize and search content and share the digital content with internal and external stakeholders. Content includes images, videos, sound files and documents, so users can now download information and digital content files and convert any content from one format to another, and invite others to access and download the content from the portal. This project was completed on time and on budget.
