"Clodify" CRM/ERP system - Case Study

Share:

What is “Clodify”?

The system was born as a simple CRM/ERP web standalone system in 2015. It was engineered to cover the management needs of the newborn IT company – Skynix LLC.

Intended purposes

There were two main functions first:

  1. Reporting – to assemble developer’s reports in one place. Customers were able to see online what the company was working on, what problems did the developers face and the current stage of projects/tasks implementation.
  2. Invoicing –  it allowed to invoice the customers easily, basing on the reported scope of work.

Initially, the system was designed and coded in a short period of time, using open source technologies like php, mysql, Yii2 Framework, Apache/Nginx web servers.

Evolution

However, it was just the beginning. IT company was growing and their needs grew as well. Due to the fact that it had become a long project, the architecture was refactored into a modern distributed architecture with the use of docker engine, where:

  1. Frontend became a container with Emberjs framework
  2. Backend API was a set of containers with PHP & Yii2 Framework
  3. Database appeared to be a relational database server

“Clodify” now

Managers kept working on adding new features to the system, as IT Business experienced difficulties without them. And point-by-point “Clodify” has grown into a fully functional ERP system. Now it has the following features available:

To not leave this huge effort and expenses without proper attention, we decided to show this product to the world. To get cold-eye feedbacks on the product and estimate it’s possible value, we decided to make this system absolutely free to use.
