Introduction
Blualpha provides high-impact IT business solutions and services to organizations all across the world. The solutions they provide are primarily related to computing and network infrastructure, website and custom software development, and Microsoft Office 365. Joseph Orjinta, solution architect at Blualpha Nigeria, develops IT solutions for the health, hospitality, and education industries.
The Challenge
Joseph needed to build an interactive mobile application for hotel management that would assist them in managing hotel rooms and their accompanying processes. To ensure ease of use by hotel management, the application needed to be touch enabled and have an attractive user interface. An effective reservation dashboard presentation was a top priority, as was the ability to create reports with filter and export options. In order to produce this application in a timely manner, Orjinta decided to use Syncfusion’s third party component suites.
The Solution
By using Essential Studio for WinRT, Joseph was able to build the ideal application for small and medium scale hotels to carry out their hotel business efficiently. The Hub Tile, Tile View, Report Viewer, Time Picker, and Date Picker tools were the most helpful tools for Joseph. The reservation dashboard offers search capabilities and room tasks such as new booking, confirm booking, print receipts, change room, cancel booking, check in, check out, view history, and clean dirty room. Joseph found Syncfusion’s quarterly releases helpful, and he was able to implement new features to his application such as the Report Viewer Export feature with no internet connection.
After saving 600 hours in development time, Joseph’s application HotelService is now a successful Windows Store application. Joseph recommends Syncfusion’s products because they add productivity to the life of a developer, and he feels Syncfusion has the potential to grow the software industry.
