Computer Telephone Redesign Project
Computer Telephone's (CTI) site had gone stagnant. After a couple of years of not being able to easily update their site and tired of the old look and feel they needed an update.
CTI needed a new revenue source and the ability to attract new clients via the web.
After meeting with CTI our team was able to successfully devise a plan to revamp their website that included affordable pricing for small business. Cloud Construct's process began with a full requirement gathering phase and
then visual design meetings with the client. After deciding on color patterns and look and feel CTI decided they need an e-commerce solution that would allow customers to purchase used merchandise on their website while also
displaying all the great services and products they deliver on a daily basis. They also need an easy way to maintain the site on their own so they did not have to constantly call on support to do it for them.
The end result was a site with a sleek new design and usability for clients and administrators. Login functionality for all of CTI's clients along with an e-commerce solution custom built into their site
allowed for a very unique experience. CTI's new site was able to display all of the great products, services, and team members that makeup this small business while giving it a chance to compete with larger companies out there.
Matrix Tires Wholesale Project
Matrix Tires has been a family run business on the West Coast of the United States for the past ten years. Looking to expand their business by
moving into wholesale they needed a new avenue to reach customers. They decided to move the business online and allow retailers to easily
order tires from their website was the best approach.
Beginning with a full requirements gathering phase we needed to make sure all of the customers needs where met. We determined the consumer needed
the ability to search for tires, submit an order, and then easily resubmit an order. Lastly, the administrators of the website needed to be able to review order and
approve them quickly for shipping.
The site was built on the ASP.NET 3.5 platform with a Microsoft SQL database. All customer accounts are securely stored and allow for customers to login and update their
profiles and order submissions. They can review past orders and also add to old orders if they need to increase the amount of tires requested. Matrix Tires Wholesale is now ready
to start accepting orders online and is looking to adding e-commerce and spanish language support in the coming months.

Cloud Construct Mobile
In today's environment it is important to have an optimized site for the mobile market. Cloud Construct can create this presence with an approach that optimizes a site for the most popular mobile devices.
There are several approaches to implement a mobile web site, and this example represents just one. This site is optimized both for the Blackberry platform and for the iPhone platform. One of the challenges encountered when creating a mobile application is accounting for the vertical and horizontal views. To overcome this we used a framework that handles many different aspect ratios. The advantage to using this framework versus creating a customized design is that a community of developers test and use it today. Additionally, as the mobile industry evolves, we will only need to change a portion of the framework to accommodate the update.
When developing a site, one should never forget this segment of the market because in the future people will be connecting to sites more and more via a wide array of mobile devices.
