Going into this project, we had the challenge of getting 8,500 unorganized, print quality photos onto the website, in a timely manner. We developed a module that first significantly reduced the size of each file for a faster load time, then stored it on the website. This cut the processing time per image from 3 minutes, using a manual method, to less than 10 seconds. A single employee at Alexander Supply was able to upload photos of over 8,500 items in less than 2 months; while continuing to perform his normal sales support duties.
