Development of a Secure, Scalable Process Visualization SaaS with Salesforce Integration

The client faces difficulties in creating a fully tolerant, secure, and GDPR-compliant process visualization and management SaaS tailored for large organizations. They require an integrated solution that offers high customization, reliable version control, and real-time collaboration capabilities. Additionally, the existing architecture must support high scalability, robust security practices, and seamless integration with third-party platforms such as CRM systems, specifically Salesforce.

A mid-to-large enterprise specializing in business process management and digital transformation solutions aiming to implement a flexible process mapping platform integrated with existing CRM systems.
