Case study

Allergy Standards: From Two-Week Certificates To Two Seconds

A second project with Allergy Standards Ltd, this time tackling a very specific bottleneck: certificates that took up to two weeks to physically sign, in a business built on speed and trust.

Zoho Creator

The Challenge

Certificates needed physical signatures from both the CEO and the medical chairman, both of whom travel frequently. That alone caused delays of up to two weeks. Asset approvals were just as slow, handled by email chains that left clients confused and one overwhelmed brand manager fielding all of it manually.

The Solution

Dr. John McKeon had already seen Zoho Creator's potential at Zoholics back in 2009.

"I've seen the light; it's Zoho Creator."

Dr. John McKeon, CEO and Founder, Allergy Standards Ltd

Working with us, ASL built a set of low-code applications on Zoho Creator: a single tick-box now triggers automatic, digitally-signed certificate generation. An outward-facing asset approval portal replaced the email chains entirely, giving clients one place to submit and track approvals. A Single Sign-On client portal, built in collaboration with Zoho's own product team, now gives every client one personalised hub to download certificates, submit requests and access brand assets.

The Results

  • Certificate generation cut from up to two weeks down to a couple of seconds
  • Hundreds of hours saved by eliminating manual, email-based approval chains
  • A single sign-on client portal built directly with Zoho's product team
  • A system designed to expand as ASL's business expands, not one they'll outgrow again
