Zyraa

Zyraa is an affordable project management software which is designed for all organizations to plan, track, and organize tasks. Users can create multiple tasks, assign them to the dedicated team members, and set deadlines to make informed decisions from a single dashboard. Moreover, teams can communicate using built-in task comments and manage documents with both team and public access permissions. Zyraa also allows the creation of workspaces for departments and project folders as well as the tracking of logged hours and billable time. The integration of Slack enables daily standups for specific teams by selecting channels, customizing questions, and scheduling prompts.

POPULAR FEATURES

Integration of Slack

The integration of Slack sends automated daily standup reminders and instant task notifications to keep teams informed without extra effort.

Workspace Management

Create and switch between multiple workspaces with role-based access, and invite team members while tracking pending invitations.

Project Templates

Templates can be customized organization-wide or team-wise and applied to new or existing projects for consistent structure.

Task Management

Task boards display assignees, due dates, status, and priority while letting teams communicate through inline comments.

Collaborative Docs

PROJECT REQUIREMENT

The client needed a flexible task management platform with no onboarding friction that allows teams to start working quickly.

Zyraa must support multiple workspaces and organizations so they can manage teams and projects all in a single dashboard.
Teams should be able to track time on tasks and projects with easy timesheet exports for client billing.
Made seamless collaboration through inline comments and shared documentation so communication and updates stay centralized within tasks.
Employ built-in subscription billing to manage payments and monetize services without using third-party solutions.
Integrate Slack for daily standups and reduce platform switching to ensure teams receive timely updates and notifications.

OUR APPROACH

Our development approach focused on building a reliable foundation to handle complex project management data for Zyraa.

Backend-First Architecture

The Node.js/TypeScript API and MongoDB models were built before the React frontend to ensure a stable foundation for all feature development.

Sprint Planning

Each sprint started with scoping and ended with a live client demo to minimize the misaligned expectations and enable fast course corrections.

CI/CD Pipelines

Automated testing and deployment validated every merged change before it reached production.

Type Safety

We used TypeScript on both the frontend and backend to reduce errors while teams worked on separate modules concurrently and integrated at predefined milestones.

Decoupled Storage

File storage was separated from application logic from day one to prevent costly architectural rework later.

PROJECT SUCCESS

The project successfully overcame the key challenges and delivered a competitive task management platform.

Implemented tenant-scoped MongoDB schemas with role-based permissions to ensure fully isolated data across workspaces without leakage.
Integrated Stripe subscription API with seat-based tracking and webhooks to automatically update billing as members change.
Enabled workspace-level OAuth with project-specific Slack settings to deliver notifications without repeating authentication.
Offloaded all user uploads to AWS S3 using secure pre-signed URLs to ensure scalable storage without server performance degradation.
