A ScienceSoft Case Study
The customer, P.I.C.S. EDV GmbH, an Austrian custom software developer, faced a challenge modernizing a legacy Delphi-based graphic design application for a printing client. The outdated software had limited features and could not support updates, hindering the end client's competitiveness. P.I.C.S. EDV GmbH engaged vendor ScienceSoft to develop a new, convenient desktop app that would allow users to independently create personalized designs for various print products and handle all prepress activity.
ScienceSoft implemented a solution using C++ and the Qt framework to create a robust desktop application called the printing e-factory. This comprehensive tool included modules for product selection, order assistance, a layout editor, and a basket for cost calculation and order fulfillment. The result for the end client was a modernized application that supports updates, performs advanced design tasks, and facilitates the design process to fuel sales. ScienceSoft delivered a solution that replaced the inflexible legacy system with a versatile and user-friendly platform.
