01 The Challenge
As a result of their quickly growing client roster, this web services business required a specialized solution that catered to a specific large service provider. Just like GlowTouch, this company is intently focused on meeting and exceeding their customers’ needs. This required their current APS package to enable the carrier to modify the features of the email and smartphone services, in order to bundle them into existing and new cloud service packages.
02 The Solution
Their APS 1.2 package performed several new functions to satisfy their customers’ expectations. Additional functionalities included:
The team recognized that GlowTouch was the best fit to update the package and knew they could fully utilize GlowTouch’s extensive APS and Parallels knowledge base. The two teams actively met and GlowTouch was able to quickly identify and execute the solution to implement the required APS functionalities. GlowTouch collaborated frequently with the client to discuss the progress of the engagement and make adjustments as the project progressed.
Today, GlowTouch continues to consult with the client regarding APS and Parallels support on an as-needed basis for client implementations and troubleshooting.
As a follow up to the original APS enhancements, GlowTouch recently built new features into the APS 1.2 package. For example, we added a custom logging feature that logs all API requests and responses from the APS package to the client’s system. This benefit enables the client’s own team to troubleshoot complex problems and issues within the service provider’s environment.
In addition, GlowTouch built a custom error handling feature that ensures data integrity from the customer to the client’s system. This feature filters out false information and allows good data to be processed; cutting down on support costs by eliminating invalid email accounts.
