We developed ParcelFrog, a sophisticated courier comparison platform built on the YII PHP framework. The system allows both courier companies and customers to register, log in, and interact seamlessly. Customers can input parcel details (origin, destination, size, and weight) and instantly receive live price comparisons from multiple courier companies—based on the pricing plans each company configures in the system.
Key Features:
-
Dual user roles: Separate registration and dashboards for courier companies and customers.
-
Real-time price comparison: Automated retrieval of courier pricing based on custom business rules and company plans.
-
Parcel management workflow: Customers can easily request quotes, confirm bookings, and track parcels.
-
Automated email notifications: Triggered for every key action, from registration to booking confirmation.
-
Courier company control panel: Manage pricing plans, coverage areas, and booking records.
-
Fully automated processes: Minimal manual intervention required once courier plans are set up.
-
Complex business logic: Overcame multiple development challenges after the project was left incomplete by other UK companies—our technical discussions with the client clarified requirements and enabled successful delivery.
Outcome:
The result is a fully automated, scalable platform that connects customers with the best courier options in real time, significantly improving efficiency for both service providers and end-users
