RequirementA fitness company, Fit-Ventures, needed a system that would enable them to better manage their clients. They needed a cost effective system that could be accessed through the web and through a Smartphone.

The system would also be able to sell fitness related products and track sales by its affiliates. Affiliates would be able to market Fit-Ventures services or products, and the system would track commission owed or paid to them.

The SolutionA solution was developed for the client based on the requirements. The solution, Fit-Awesome, was developed which could be accessed from the web and smart phone. For the web, the solution was developed in Drupal. Drupal is a feature rich open source CMS that is search engine friendly and includes an extensive range of modules that can be added to enhance the website functionality. A number of modules like CVRM, Sugar RM, and Infusion were evaluated to be integrated with Drupal. After careful analysis, Infusion was selected to be integrated with Drupal.
