DEVELOPMENT OF CALCULATORS FOR FURNITURE MANUFACTURING

The online calculator greatly simplifies the process of user interaction with the company’s website and allows them to calculate the cost of goods or services in just a few minutes, without contacting managers. This simple but effective tool is widely used in e-commerce projects, online stores, credit services, as well as in the manufacture of custom-made furniture.

After filling in the form fields and moving the sliders, the consumer can create his own furniture project (for example, for the kitchen) and calculate its preliminary cost.

The calculator development process begins with a preliminary analysis of the information received from the client, in particular about the sales funnel and opportunities of the company. At the next stage, a detailed technical assignment is drawn up, basic data are indicated and grouped, which  should be used in the calculation, formulas for the correct operation of the program module are highlighted.

After that, the project is visualized: a prototype and design are developed for it. The calculator is undergoing comprehensive testing, all
calculations are automated, the module is integrated into the site.

The consumer will need only a few minutes to use the module.

To calculate the cost of services, you must fill in the main fields:

• product dimensions;
• internal filling (shelves, partitions, etc.);
• materials used;
• fittings and other nuances depending on the type of furniture.

When the form is completed, the client only needs to click on the “Calculate” button and see the results of the calculations. Such a structure is not universal, the presence of required fields, sliders, additional functions, principles of data sorting, the input sequence may vary depending on the wishes of the customer.

In addition to the main task for which the calculator is intended, it can perform other functions, for example, it can be used to collect and further analyze statistics. The module allows you to save the calculations made on the site, so you will have access to information about the client’s actions on the web resource, and you will also be able to understand which parameters are used in the form most often. In the future, this will help create the most attractive selling proposition and increase the conversion of the site.

In addition, the online calculator has other important advantages that will help your business grow:

• The client can see and understand how the price of furniture changes depending on the choice of different elements, think about his order and see what makes up the total cost.

• The entire production process looks transparent, which increases the level of trust in the company.
• Some modules have a built-in editor for creating realistic three-dimensional models of objects, which supports the ability to calculate the price of the designed furniture.
• Users have access to all important parameters of the project, so instead of contacting managers and asking questions, they independently consider different options and choose the best one.

AVADA MEDIA offers calculator development services for furniture companies and brands. We do not use ready-made templates and design each module individually, taking into account the client’s requirements, the capabilities of the enterprise and the interests of the target audience.

• flexible pricing system;
• the ability to pre-select the date and delivery method.

Our specialists successfully implement projects of any complexity, using the tools that they are fluent in: jQuery, JS, HTML5, CSS3 and others.

The development process goes through several important stages:

1. Experts collect and analyze data, after which they form a clear plan of action, determine the development team, and calculate the cost of the project.
2. A prototype is created, which allows you to understand how the finished program module will look like. Then the design is developed, according to which the layout is done, and all the elements acquire a structure.
3. In the development process, specialists use the above tools and a suitable technology stack.
4. At the testing stage, inaccuracies in the code are looked for and the activities of a potential user are imitated.
5. After completion of the work, the calculator is integrated into the client’s web resource.

We transform your ideas and innovations into a finished product that will contribute to the development and scaling of business, as well as the emergence new clients.
