Case Study: Zlapps achieves scalable growth to 100,000 enterprise teams with mLab

Backed by mLab, Zlapps' Popular Bot Helps 100K Enterprise Teams Better Manage Tasks

Zlapps, creator of the To-Do bot that lets enterprise teams create and manage tasks inside chat platforms like Slack, Cisco Spark, and HipChat, grew from a developer side project into a product used by 100,000 enterprise teams. When Parse announced its shutdown, Zlapps needed a reliable MongoDB Database-as-a-Service and a partner to handle scalability and DevOps so the small team could stay focused on product development — a need it met by mLab’s managed MongoDB DBaaS and support.

Zlapps selected mLab, starting on the free Sandbox plan and upgrading to Shared and then Dedicated Clusters as demand surged; mLab handled database DevOps, migrated millions of critical records during the Dedicated Cluster upgrade, and provided proactive optimization and support. Because of mLab, Zlapps was able to scale seamlessly, concentrate on the To-Do bot’s development, and continue serving 100,000 enterprise teams without dedicating internal resources to database management.
