Viewpoint always strives to stay ahead of our client’s functional needs and also for your future technology expectations. This is the essence of innovation, a core driver for all we do. One such expectation is the demand for state-of-the-art, Cloud enabled solutions and Web-based client servicing portals.
Even before the new norm of COVID-19, we were Cloud-enabled and we have also offered a Client Serving Portal for many years. Recently we have completed a 3,500 hour transition to the very latest, and best in class, Web technology available: Angular. It has been a substantial undertaking. The results are even better than we had hoped for and we are only just beginning our journey with this technology so you can expect many further improvements to come.
Below is a breakdown list of the advantages that the new framework offers to users of Viewpoint Engage Client Servicing Portal (ESP). The original article was sourced from Techaheadcorp.com
Viewpoint Engage – The Angular Framework advantages
Angular can be at least five times faster than the previous technology used by Viewpoint ESP
It is also considerably more secure
To provide optimal stability for critical and core applications, such as Viewpoint, the underlying Angular technology has a regular six months release schedule to provide the very latest technology adapted to the world’s constantly changing needs
Angular components are quite independent and self-sufficient, which makes them reusable and test friendly. That makes development of new functionality easier and more efficient
Angular is considered more sustainable: for example it is easier to replace, maintain and scale-up
Angular applications, such as Viewpoint ESP, are considered more multiple interface format friendly and responsive. This makes Angular applications equally suitable for desktops, browsers and mobile devices
Angular supports faster loading of applications by only loading those needed, when they are needed
The TypeScript’s approach of Angular makes for cleaner code, better navigation, and a higher-quality product
It is the framework of choice for Google
This means the switch to Angular is a substantial step for Viewpoint to ensure that its Engage Servicing Portal is at the forefront of Web technology and, critically with future-proofing in mind.
