Recent .NET projects done by our dedicated offshore web application development team for clients in United States and United Kingdom.

Event Management – London

Our client wanted an enhanced event management system by incorporating a dynamic form building functionality. The existing system had a form building option developed in legacy scripting, which was not flexible enough to create forms with varied controls and validations.

The admin users needed to design forms dynamically based on the information collected from the users for an event registration. The form controls added had be made mandatory and also be given the required validations. There was an option to format the title and descriptions of the form using HTML editor. Admin is able to reposition the form elements easily and update the form design. The system should also track the number of registrants for each form generated for these events.

The client application was developed in ASP.NET 2.0 using C#. A layered architecture using Object Oriented method was followed strictly for the project. This made the system highly extensible and maintainable. New features in .NET 2.0 like master pages and generics were extensively used. By using generic object collections, runtime type conversion errors could be avoided.
