Case Study: Budgetlinx achieves secure, scalable desktop budget management and improved UX with Altoros

Budgetlinx - Customer Case Study

Budgetlinx is a desktop personal-finance application that gives users a single-screen view of income, spending and a wide range of assets while keeping sensitive data off the public cloud. Altoros was engaged after the original Atlanta-based implementation showed serious architectural flaws that made adding features and maintenance difficult; the team also faced the UX challenge of combining many small items (payments, dates, income sources) into clear, simple charts while preserving strong local-data security.

Altoros refactored the codebase and redesigned the architecture for scalability, improved the user experience, defined a three-tier licensing strategy, and hardened security by adding credential access and encryption for local storage; the app was delivered as a single executable for easy installation and improved charting to aggregate small data items. As a result, Altoros delivered a maintainable, upgradeable Budgetlinx product with stronger data protection and simpler distribution, enabling the customer to offer an effective cash‑flow and budget‑planning service—backed by prompt Altoros support (often same‑ or next‑day responses) per the customer testimonial.
