Challenge
A large Southeast Asian financial institution needed a modern loan origination and management system, and the deadlines were both challenging and crucial for success. Thanks to its hard-earned reputation, INFOPRO was trusted with this important project.
The goals set by the customer were clear:
- Launch a custom digital lending product rapidly
- Ensure full integration with existing systems and processes
- Reduce development costs while maintaining high scalability and security
- Enable flexibility for future enhancements and regulatory changes
Early research carried out by INFOPRO's experts has led to an unfortunate conclusion: none of the traditional Java frameworks offered the speed, maintainability, or developer efficiency necessary to meet those goals. A new and better solution was urgently needed. After more research, INFOPRO turned its attention to Jmix.
Why Jmix
INFOPRO selected Jmix (formerly CUBA Platform) as the core framework to power its fintech development due to its promising features such as:
- Rapid delivery through low-code tooling and visual modelling via Jmix Studio
- Seamless integration with REST APIs, external systems, and internal services
- Support for secure, role-based access control, ideal for regulated environments
- Cost efficiency with a single full-stack developer model replacing split frontend/backend roles
Our original framework was client-server, which made deployment an issue for the client with more than 50 branches. We explored low-code solutions but they didn’t allow us to reuse existing Java and Oracle business logic. We also considered a SPA architecture with Angular and Java backend, but it required two different skill sets and teams—slowing development and increasing resource costs.
Chee Keong Lee, Technical Director
Jmix turned out to be the perfect choice, which allowed INFOPRO’s developers to build quickly and iterate easily, focusing on business logic rather than boilerplate infrastructure, which was a big help considering the tight deadlines they had to deal with.
Solution
Using Jmix, INFOPRO developed a full-scale web-based loan platform that included:
- Dynamic loan origination workflows
- Customizable data structures and approval processes
- Integrated reporting and dashboards for operations and compliance
- Full user role and permission management
As a result of choosing Jmix as the core development framework, the system was built, deployed, and met all the client’s business requirements. The tight timelines were never an issue.
Result
INFOPRO’s choice of Jmix directly contributed to the project's success, which included:
- Faster delivery: Project launched significantly earlier than expected
- Cost savings: Smaller dev team and reusable modules lowered total cost
- Enhanced agility: Changes to business logic or compliance rules could be made with minimal overhead
- Smooth UX: The resulting platform was intuitive, with minimal training needed for business users
Having ensured the overwhelming success while working on a critically important project, Jmix has now become a strategic asset in the company’s fintech delivery model.
Looking Ahead
With Jmix as a trusted part of its technology stack, INFOPRO continues to lead in building next generation banking platforms. INFOPRO's development team is looking forward to benefitting from Jmix's fastness, reliability and cost efficiency in the course of developing new projects, which will, without a doubt, help their future customers stay ahead through digital innovation, operational efficiency, and scalable growth.
