ARS247.com is a Ruby on Rails website Advantage Route Systems uses to support their customers. I added some features to help improve the communication between Advantage Route Systems and their customers.

Details

I worked with Advantage Route Systems to add some new features to their support website.

To improve communication on their technical support website, I added RSS syndication to allow Advantage Route Systems to push documentation and software updates to their customer’s desktop programs.

An administration panel was created that allows their employees to modify a set of license codes for their products. This allowed their technical support team to resolve customer issues, without involving a system administrator
