The biggest challenge at the beginning of our engagement was connected to the technical background of the product. Such a big project with a lot of difficult logic onboard is not trivial to dive into. Moreover, some users of the Atamis package use the classic interface, so the project is designed to be compatible with both Сlassic and Lightning interfaces.Despite this, we went into details pretty quickly and finished an initial scope of urgent changes faster than was estimated by the client.
We involved a dedicated Salesforce developer to work with the Atamis team. In the beginning, we reviewed the existing codebase, product architecture, started with optimisations and bug fixing. Then, we gradually moved to the development of new features, integrations with 3rd parties, and R&D assignments.The most valuable decision was to bring our technical expertise to the Atamis team and to start growing the product with a systematic approach, project management best practices, and solid release workflow.
In this project, we developed an integration with DocuSign using middleware Heroku application, PostgreSQL DB, and Salesforce API. It allowed bypassing Salesforce limits related to the file size for signatures.
Probably 80% of our working time is devoted to the development of new features. Atamis team has an amazing backlog of ideas, so we’re actively implementing them.
As one of our goals was to prepare the package for the Salesforce security review, we utilized our prior knowledge and fixed the majority of vulnerabilities.
Atamis product is constantly growing, and our team is often involved in the various proof of concept assignment, technical discoveries, and investigations.
MagicFuse developers take a big responsibility for the technical side of the project, meaning that we provide a lot of bug fixing, maintenance, and support for the entire system.
From the project management perspective, everything is organized in Salesforce. Before we started working together, the Atamis team implemented a completely bespoke system for case management with conditions for test cases and other componentsFrom the communication point of view, we have regular meetings and daily chats between MagicFuseforce developers and Atamis team members.
