Background
Jewelers Mutual Insurance wanted to deliver a new version of their LINK tablet app that would be built from the ground up. The new version needed to provide in-app administration, support iOS, Android, and Windows, and reflect new corporate branding standards. It would integrate with their Salesforce implementation and existing Jewelers Mutual APIs.
Cross-Platform Tablet App
Trailhead architected and developed the cross-platform tablet app using Xamarin.Forms which allowed for significant code sharing between the iOS, Android, and Windows apps. Trailhead assisted the Jewelers Mutual team with Salesforce API development and brought them up to speed on Xamarin development and app DevOps and deployment.
Trailhead provides unparalleled agility in execution and scaling to have the right level of resources to deliver quality technology. Their proactive approach in seeing the bigger picture is welcomed and uncommon. Trailhead’s on time and on/under budget estimates are consistently met–I always clearly understand what I can expect from them.

Background
Avail Technologies builds software and hardware systems for every aspect of public transit. Their driver interface application, the Mobile Data Terminal, ran on legacy platforms that were becoming difficult to update and maintain. Avail wanted to upgrade the MDT application to the latest technology and leverage the platform flexibility that .NET Core and Angular offer.
Touchscreen Web App
Trailhead worked closely with Avail product managers and engineers to design and develop a modern touch interface web application that closely resembles the legacy application from the user’s perspective, but is built using the latest technologies including .NET Core and Angular. The new application architecture is built with future capabilities in mind and alleviates many of the constraints and complexities of the legacy system.
Trailhead continues to be an excellent partner to augment and complement our own internal Product Development team. They help us stay abreast of and current with the latest technologies. They are great to collaborate and work with, and they consistently deliver high quality solutions on time and within budget.

Background
Jewelers Mutual Insurance wanted to bring to market an interactive holographic kiosk that would draw potential customers into retail jewelry stores and allow them to view custom jewelry in an exciting new way. With Holojem, kiosk users can search and interact with 3D models of custom jewelry and share them with friends.
Kiosk + Web + Azure Cloud
Trailhead architected and developed the full software stack to enable a scalable and distributed network of Windows 10 touchscreen kiosks backed by content delivery and web administration on Microsoft Azure. Jewelers are able to manage their jewelry catalog via a secure web application and new content is immediately distributed to their cloud-connected kiosks. Users can view, save, and share jewelry items through a responsive web application.
