“This was a challenging and very
interesting project. The best part was
that we had all the freedom to
suggest the architecture and
technology for the new system. And,
of course, it is way better to develop
the software based on specs your
own team created. We are looking
forward to the development phase!”

registration-system-specifications
Project
As the company grew, they needed to
rebuild their event registration system to
make it easy for not-technical employees
to set up and edit events. Moreover their
current system was written in classic ASP,
but the client wanted to rewrite it in .Net.
It was decided to start with defining
software architecture for the future event
management system and to develop
specifications for the developers to work
with.
