Being a leading provider of a wide range of
proprietary technologies, learning tools, and
educational experiences to global brands since
1989, ISAIX Technologies realized that their
legacy Bust Server Tool (BST) needs a complete
makeover to meet evolving customer needs and
rapid technological advances.
ISAIX wanted to upgrade the technology behind
BST Tool and rebuild the tool from scratch, so
that thefront end solution is compatible with
multiple devices,thus increasing accessibility
and usability of the tool.
Finding a right outsourcing partner was a big
challenge as this was the first project ISAIX had
ever outsourced. There were concerns like
effective communication, reliability, and quality
of the engagement.
THE PROBLEM THE CHALLENGE
Cross platform-device compatibility
One of the key challenges of the project was to make
Burst app compatible with multiple operating systems
and platforms such as Apple ios, Android, BlackBerry
OS, Windows Mobile, and Windows and Apple desktop
operating systems.
Migration to HTML5
The existing frontend solution was based on Flash,
but to make the app multi-device compatible, it
needed to be migrated to HTML5. The migration
proved to be very challenging as ISAIX wanted similar
Flash-based features in the new HTML5-based app.
SCORM compliance
The application was SCORM compliant and
multilingual functionality was implemented so as to
reach a wider audience.
New media capabilities
To live up to the ever-changing technology
requirements of corporate learning community, ISAIX
wanted an app with new media capabilities, including
multimedia features, and multiple content
highlighting.

THE RESULT
Cross Platform Cross Device Experience
The new HTML5-based Burst app displayed various
content modules consistently across multiple screens
Laptops, desktops, tablets, and smartphones which
improved the app’s accessibility and receptiveness.
Project Quality
With the way our team handled the project, the
communication, and the final solution delivery, we were
able to win ISAIX’s confidence in our expertise related
toobile solutions development. The long term
association between ISAIX and Net Solutions is the
testimony to our commitment to quality.
Cost Effectiveness
ISAIX was able to reduce the time-to-market of Burst
app through our fixed price engagement model and
AGILE development methodology, which eventually
resulted in significant cost savings for ISAIX.
Technology
While developing the Burst app from ground up, a
perfect mix of HTML5, .NET, SQL Server,jQuery,
Ajax, and JavaScript technologies was used to
create a robust and highly compatible solution.
Testing the inevitable
To determine applicability of the Burst app, we
decided to develop a POC (Proof of Concept) to test
the most challenging features – like
implementation of zoom-in/zoom-out, text
highlight etc. using HTML 5.
Agile Development Methodology
Once the POC was successful , AGILE development
methodology was used to complete the entire
project in three phases.
Use of Rich Internet Applications (RIAs)
To meet performance requirements of Burst app,
the implementation of the website’s backend
solution was done using Microsoft Silverlight,
which made the app run faster and display content
accurately on the web.
ISAIX was able to reduce the time-to-market of
Burst app through our fixed price engagement model.
