// Challenges

Problems We Solved

01

Lack of In-House Expertise

FanCraze needed outsourcing experts to cover the resource gap and enrich the platform with advanced features in a fraction of the time.

02

Design Gap

The company focused on feature development for speed to market, but recognized the need to enhance design to deliver the holistic experience users deserve.

03

Limited Scalability

The beta system had limited user capacity. The company needed unlimited scalability from day one after official release.

04

Strict Deadline

Crucial product updates needed to ship before the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 within an 8-month window.
