Overview
Virtual Post Mail is a boutique virtual mailbox and address service. They offer corporate registered agent services, very similar services to the US local mailbox store with the added value of mail scanning, package forwarding, and manual check deposit. Their streamlined process assures mail is processed the same day they receive it. Virtual Post Mail has helped, since 2009, thousands of customers to turn their daily delivery of physical, postal mail into electronic, digital data. Our Partner’s internal developers were slowly moving out of Angular into React, and they wanted to be able to stay close to one primary framework for ease of developer training, which was the key reason for their decision to get our help for the migration.
Key challenges
Taking care of every tiny detail to keep all the functionalities and good things users are used to was the biggest challenge of the migration. We did our best to keep the functionalities identical to the original app, while the framework, code, file structure, and the whole context were utterly different. As we didn’t develop the first app, we didn’t know exactly all the tiny behaviour details and some of the specifics. Luckily, the owners were always available to help us spot these details and explain to us how things work. As a result, we made a new, modern, faster and even better app both from the user perspective and code cleanliness.
