Challenges
Enhancing Manufacturing Communication: ScheduleKey's Integration Challenge
ScheduleKey, being a software-as-a-service company, offers its customers in the manufacturing industry a platform to oversee their orders, production, shipping, and invoicing. However, they identified a pressing need to incorporate an in-app chat feature that would enable seamless communication for the customers of their clients throughout the entire manufacturing process. The envisioned chat feature would eliminate the need for users to switch to external apps for communication.
To realize this vision, ScheduleKey was in search of a customizable chat solution that could be integrated effortlessly with their existing platform. They wanted a chat platform that could be programmatically set up for each of their clients, allowing every customer to have a distinct chat instance. The requirements also included support for voice and video calls and both one-on-one and group chats. Additionally, ScheduleKey sought robust control over chat groups, notifications, and moderation to ensure efficient and effective use of the chat feature by their customers.
