Case Study: Fast Mirror halves development time and accelerates HR SaaS launch with Alpha Software

Human Resources SaaS Launched Quickly with Powerful Capabilties

Fast Mirror is a cloud-based HR platform founded by John Azzara to help employees get meaningful peer feedback and build development plans, while reducing the administrative burden on HR teams. Azzara needed a self-service SaaS that balanced ease-of-use and customizability and wanted to move quickly to capture market opportunity—something traditional platforms and hand-coding approaches couldn’t deliver.

Using the low-code, extensible Alpha Anywhere platform, Azzara built the subscription service solo, leveraging XBasic, JavaScript, CSS and APIs to create a sophisticated app and mobile-web version. The result: development time cut roughly in half, lower costs, fast prototyping and iteration, and a timely launch that preserved market opportunity.
