Their Challenge
For decades, the client relied on a legacy application to control their advanced material testing machinery. While the software was functional, its outdated interface and limited capabilities created significant business challenges. The application lacked modern features such as user management, and its clunky interface was cumbersome for users. The client needed to replace this outdated system with a modern, flexible, and powerful software solution that would work seamlessly with their new hardware controller, improve data security, and elevate the overall user experience.
Our Solution
Saritasa partnered with the client to develop a completely new, Windows-based software program to replace their outdated legacy application. We started with a comprehensive design phase to create a modern, intuitive user interface that reflects the client’s innovative brand. The new material testing software provides enhanced data reporting, post-test data analysis, and an improved user experience, all of which were critical to the client’s business goals.
Our Approach
What Saritasa Did
Modern Windows Application
We built a new Windows application from scratch, replacing the outdated legacy system with a modern, clean, and intuitive user interface. This streamlined UI simplifies complex testing procedures, reducing the learning curve and empowering staff to operate the machinery more effectively.
Dual-Mode User Experience
To serve both technical and non-technical customers, we developed the software with two distinct modes. The Basic Mode provides a simplified, uncluttered interface for essential tests, while the Advanced Mode unlocks all features and granular controls for expert users. This flexible approach allows users to start simple and upgrade as their needs evolve.
Secure User Management
We added a comprehensive user management system with secure login and multi-tiered roles and permissions. This improvement enhances data security and accountability by allowing administrators to control who can access certain functions or sensitive data.
Data Analysis and Reporting
Our team engineered a more robust system for data collection and analysis. The new application features an advanced data analysis module and a sophisticated report builder, allowing users to analyze post-test data, visualize results, and generate customized reports.
