Development of a Multi-Tenant Realtime Collaborative Presentation Platform

The client’s existing platform faced significant scalability and usability limitations due to an outdated architecture, poor documentation, and inefficient codebase. It lacked proper multitenancy, requiring manual duplication of functionality for each new tenant, thereby increasing costs, reducing reliability, and hindering rapid onboarding of new clients. Additionally, the platform’s capabilities for realtime collaboration, customization, and communication were insufficient to meet modern client expectations.
