Seamless Installation Scheduling with a Custom Zoho Creator Backend

Overview

Kimbo Smart Home, a provider of home automation (domotics) and interior installation services, works closely with leading real estate developers to deliver smart living experiences. With a growing partnership ecosystem—including collaborations with major developers like Aldar Properties—the company required a scalable and intelligent backend system to manage installations efficiently. To support this growth and ensure seamless coordination, Kimbo Smart Home partnered with Samsoft for a custom-built Zoho Creator solution.

Business Challenges

As Kimbo Smart Home expanded its operations and partner integrations, managing installation workflows became increasingly complex. The absence of a centralized and scalable system created operational bottlenecks.

Key challenges included:

• Managing predefined installation packages with varying durations depending on property types.
• Lack of real-time visibility into installation team availability.
• Inability for external partner platforms to check availability or book installation slots directly.
• Handling both scheduled installation bookings and callback requests efficiently.
• No centralized system to track customer orders, installation schedules, and team assignments.

These limitations impacted operational efficiency, partner collaboration, and overall customer experience.

Samsoft’s Solution

Samsoft developed a fully customized backend system using Zoho Creator, designed to streamline internal operations while enabling seamless integration with external partner platforms.

The solution included:

• A centralized order management system to handle all installation requests from initiation to completion.
• A configurable package management system, allowing installation durations to be defined based on property types.
• A real-time scheduling engine to track team availability and manage installation slots dynamically.
• A robust REST API framework enabling external applications to:
  • Check available installation dates
  • Book installation slots
  • Submit callback requests
• Automated team assignment logic, ensuring optimal allocation based on availability and selected time slots.

This solution ensured that both internal teams and external partners could operate on a unified, real-time system.
