Case Study
A sleek platform for browsing, filtering, and bidding on 145,000+ vehicles weekly with real-time updates and an intuitive dashboard.
Challenges
Navigating a vast inventory, unclear bidding workflows, complex admin tasks, and fragmented backend processes made the auction experience difficult and inefficient.
- Inventory Overload: Users struggled to navigate 145,000+ vehicles without intuitive search tools.
- Unclear Bidding: Lack of real-time updates made the auction process confusing.
- Admin Complexity: Difficulty accessing car stats, sales metrics, and financial operations quickly.
- Disjointed Workflow: Separate modules for cars, parts, billing, shipping, and repairs led to inefficiencies.
