Modern Application Development Reduces Friction & User Error For Agricultural Industry

A provincial agricultural services corporation requested the help of Imaginet to update and enhance its online calculation tool, used by members of the agricultural industry. Their existing calculators were created in Microsoft Excel and were often prone to user errors and instability. Imaginet built an online suite of calculators for the client that are uncomplicated, web-based, and easily accessible on any device – including mobile.

Imaginet developed the application using Angular on the front end and .Net 6 on the back end. Entity Framework and an SQL Server for storage enabled us to create a robust administration section that is secure and straightforward for the client to modify. The entire platform runs on Azure and is hosted in the cloud. Authentication and authorization can be enforced through their existing Azure Active Directory instance.

By using Azure DevOps, we were able to hit tight deadlines, as it allowed for automated builds and releases and the ability to push changes to the website quickly, creating an efficient feedback loop and a favourable experience for both our team and the client.

The revamped calculator platform is now more modern and user-friendly, with less opportunity for miscalculations or breakdown.
