With no documented processes and too many manual steps to be performed, they were experiencing delays trying to bring websites for their managed properties online.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, a disparate suite of applications was being used to design, configure, and deploy new websites, and many of the applications weren\u2019t able to be integrated with Salesforce.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, delays related to the deployment of websites resulted in poor customer satisfaction from Homeowner Associations (HOAs) and community homeowners.<\/p>\n<h3>The Vertex Solution<\/h3>\n<p>Vertex Computer Systems proposed leveraging a Salesforce Lightning Bolt design framework to streamline the entire end-to-end web site development process and eliminate as many of the manual processes (e.g., background colors, photo selection, and event calendar population) as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Vertex\u2019s Salesforce Solution Architect also defined and documented repeatable formal business processes that would maintain our customer\u2019s high-quality standards and accelerate the entire web site design and deployment process.<\/p>\n<p>Vertex leveraged the client\u2019s existing Sales Cloud installation with an integration of Formstack\u2019s (AppExchange) Forms and Documents to eliminate third party solutions. Vertex also utilized Salesforce Lightning Web Components to replace Google Calendars on Salesforce Communities so that events could be created and shared from Salesforce.<\/p>\n<p>The Formstack Salesforce App replaced Hubspot forms, streamlining form creation and data collection. Formstack Documents replaced DocGen, making annual and monthly statement generation an easier process. The combination of a custom calendar component and forms helped to eliminate smaller registration platforms like SignUpGenius.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Salesforce Maps was used to replace a third-party solution that did not have any integration with Salesforce. This solution creates and tracks HOA violations and can be used by active Architectural Review Boards to review sites.<\/p>\n<p>The original project was delivered two weeks ahead of schedule and under budget. As a result of our success, the client asked Vertex to redesign each of its existing Customer Community portals and to help onboard new communities.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Benefits &amp; Results:<\/h3>\n<p>The Salesforce Lightning Bolt framework proved to be an effective and capable means of delivering high-quality, scalable solutions leveraging all aspects of the Salesforce Platform. The solution was seamlessly integrated into the Salesforce Platform and it increased both internal efficiency and external customer satisfaction. Leveraging additional AppExchange offerings further extended the framework\u2019s broad capabilities<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reduced license and support costs from disparate systems<\/li>\n<li>Increased efficiency in onboarding new communities and in the creation and ongoing management of community websites<\/li>\n<li>Repeatable and scalable processes<\/li>\n<li>Increased homeowner and HOA satisfaction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Real Estate Property Management company needed to launch web portals faster.
