BuildingLink – Forward Focus: Re-engineering for the next 20 years

by BuildingLink

The “What” and “Why” behind the changes BuildingLink is making.

BuildingLink has been hard at work – making our groundbreaking management system even better! The BuildingLink architecture we launched 20 years ago has withstood well the test of time – as evidenced by our amazing 5,800 property customer base. We know it is time to revisit and re-engineer what we had built, to make our management platform even more amazing. What are we currently working on?

We started with these core modules – Maintenance & Repairs, Amenity Reservations, Unit Overview, and Announcements – and have nearly completed rearchitecting their entire back end and front-end with these goals in mind:

·  Creating a state-of-the-art, eye-pleasing design.

·   Enhancing BuildingLink’s navigation experience by switching to a new single-page application (SPA) approach using Vue.js (instead of server-based page rendering) with dynamic drill-downs, pop-ups, and mouse-overs.

·   Implementing a super-secure back-end data layer built on API calls (technology that protects, limits, and speeds up access to your data).

·   Modularizing the code functionality to make it more predictable, reusable, and expandable by our developer team.

·   Preparing our site to support the latest and greatest in scalable, resilient technology – the stuff developers are excited to work with!

·   Moving to an entirely new and more “muscular” data center with better and faster servers and lots more internet connections. (Now Complete)

We hope you like what you have been seeing – we’re designing the changes by asking, managers, board members and BuildingLink fans to participate in our evolution through continuous user feedback.

We’ve already implemented more than 30 awesome suggestions from our valued BuildingLink users (THANK YOU!).

Rest assured that we take every bit of feedback to heart. We are working on the most important things first, the best way to influence the changes you would like to see is to please share with us your feedback
