THE EXISTING PRODUCT
Search pages loading in 100ms instead of 10 seconds
CostaDelHome’s existing developer was occupied with other work, leaving the team needing support with a slow Rails application. We stepped in with the technical maturity and performance expertise to tackle the bottleneck. Our wider work with the client also drew on our Stripe integration experience, giving the team specialist support across payments and performance.
We improved CostaDelHome's search functionality, reducing page load time from 10 seconds to 100ms.
A slow existing application can hold back everyday work. Targeted performance optimization improved the search experience without asking the business to replace its product.
