The Challenge
ProMark faced the ongoing challenge of maintaining its market leadership, expanding its customer base, and innovating in the Workforce Management domain. With a native cloud strategy in progress, they aimed to modernize their application by moving from deploying to Windows servers to a Kubernetes container-based infrastructure. The task at hand included upgrading existing customers to the latest application version and transforming the desktop application into a web application.
The main challenge was the resource capacity needed for this modernization effort. ProMark had developed its modernization framework but required additional expertise to speed up the process.
