Challenges

SoftBlues task was to implement the integration of the Ranplan Wireless website with Cision Communications Cloud which is a platform that provides communication with company customers through different channels, monitoring, and analytics. Plus, it enables thought leaders to share their opinions on the ongoing events. We integrated the Nasdaq stock pricing schedule with Ranplan Wireless website. The delivery time for this project was crucial as all tasks had been expected to be finished before the start of stock market trading. The team had only two weeks for the project.

Solution

First of all, SoftBlues provided MSGD with some consulting, analyzed the available APIs and focused on the possible solutions. This resulted in the accurate estimate and backlog creation and once everything was approved by MSGD and Ranplan Wireless, the team started to operate in no time.

While we produced all the back-end integrations, MSGD was involved in UI design and conveying the Ranplan Wireless corporate identity. We also contributed to the graphics output of the information that was transferred from Cision SaaS.

As a result of cooperation, the Ranplan Wireless clients are able to leave their contact information and receive newsletters via Cision. Plus, all the blog feeds are generated by SaaS and transferred to the corporate website and other client communication channels.
Finally, all the news aggregated at Cision Communication Cloud are published on the Ranplan Wireless blog https://ranplanwireless.com/news/ and all the real-time stock trading info is presented in the real-time mode.

Our joint project lasted for 13 days. All QA testing was also completed timely and after the final part was approved by the client, we started a little party to celebrate great teamwork.
