Rooftop Saunas – Building a Modular SaaS Booking Platform for Business Growth
Rooftop Saunas offers premium sauna experiences, and they approached Boomdevs to develop a customized booking management software to streamline their operations. The goal was to create a scalable SaaS platform that could handle bookings efficiently and potentially be sold as a standalone product to other businesses.
The Goal
The objective was to build a bespoke SaaS platform to manage bookings, automate operations, and offer advanced features for analytics, customer management, and payment processing. Additionally, the platform needed to integrate seamlessly with their WordPress website.
The Challenge
The main challenge was to build this feature-rich booking management platform within a three-month timeframe. The software required a wide range of functionalities, including
• Booking Management: Advanced scheduling and dynamic pricing across multiple locations.
• Service Management: Managing various services offered by Rooftop Saunas.
• Customer & Agent Management: Efficient handling of customer profiles and agent workflows.
• Payment Integration: Integrating Square Payments for seamless transactions.
• Automation: Automating different operational aspects, including notifications and service management.
• WordPress Integration: Developing a custom plugin to connect the booking system to their WordPress site.
Project Scope
Boomdevs was responsible for:
• Research and Wireframing: Detailed research and wireframing to plan out the platform.
• UI/UX Design: Crafting a user-friendly design for seamless booking and service management.
• Full-stack Development: Using four full-stack developers and one WordPress developer to build the front-end and back-end of the software, with ReactJS for dynamic user interaction.
• Payment Integration: Integrating Square Payments for smooth financial transactions.
• Automation: Automating different operational aspects, including notifications and service management.
• WordPress Plugin Development: Developing a custom plugin to connect bookings to the WordPress site.
Key Features
The platform included:
• Advanced Analytics Dashboard: Providing real-time data on bookings, sales, and overall performance.
• Booking Management: Complex scheduling and dynamic pricing for multiple locations.
• Customer & Agent Management: Management of profiles for customers and agents, streamlining workflows.
• Coupons & Membership Points: Incentives for customer loyalty and retention.
• Push Notifications & WhatsApp Integration: Keeping users informed with automated updates.
• Campaign Management: Tools for managing promotional campaigns.
• Modular SaaS Design: Built with modularity in mind so the platform could be resold as a SaaS product to other businesses.
• WordPress Connector Plugin: Integrating booking forms and calendars with their WordPress site.
Challenges Overcome
The primary challenge was the tight deadline of three months, combined with the large feature set. To meet this challenge, Boomdevs
• Assigned four full-stack developers and one WordPress developer to work intensively on the project.
• Used ReactJS for dynamic front-end development and Django, PHP, and JavaScript for the back-end, enabling us to build and integrate features efficiently.
• Held weekly client meetings and conducted thorough research before each sprint to ensure all requirements were met.
• Conducted extensive testing and data migration from the client’s old system before launching the new platform.
