Partnering with Berks Technologies was a turning point for us. Their team understood the complexities of SaaS from day one and delivered a product beyond our expectations. Now, launching a new MVP takes days, not weeks.

From Vision to Execution: Crafting a Scalable Multitenant SaaS Boilerplate.
Code Reusability Achieved
Secure Multitenancy Integration
Faster MVP
Deployment
Nano ASP.NET was facing a major bottleneck in developing MVPs for clients. Each new project required rebuilding basic authentication, user roles, tenant separation, and API integrations from scratch, significantly increasing time to market. Furthermore, their in-house tools lacked the flexibility to support different multitenancy models or handle advanced scaling needs. They needed a boilerplate framework that would reduce the development lifecycle while offering the flexibility and power of enterprise-level SaaS architecture.
Berks Technologies stepped in with a vision to create a plug-and-play SaaS boilerplate that could be reused across multiple projects. The solution included a full tenant management module, RBAC (role-based access control), and seamless DevOps integration using Docker and Azure. The modular design allowed the addition or removal of features without disturbing the core framework. Developers could now launch new MVPs faster, with built-in scalability and multitenant security out of the box.
Enabled both shared and isolated database strategies, allowing SaaS clients to choose their preferred model. Subdomain-based routing was implemented to ensure seamless tenant isolation.
Integrated IdentityServer4 to provide secure authentication with token-based sessions. Developed role-based permission models for granular access control per tenant.
Their ad budget was bleeding on the wrong clicks. We reshaped targeting criteria, paused underperforming segments, and introduced A/B testing loops, making every pound spent work harder. Same budget, but dramatically improved return on ad spend across all key platforms.
Modular integration support for third-party billing platforms like Stripe, with customizable plan tiers, metering, and subscription lifecycle management.
Fully containerized the application using Docker. Set up CI/CD pipelines on GitHub Actions with staging and production environments deployed on Azure.
Built-in logging using Serilog and middleware for exception tracking, with the ability to export logs per tenant or by event type for auditing purposes.
Created hooks for developers to add custom modules (e.g., analytics, email campaigns) without modifying the core boilerplate—boosting development speed for MVPs.

Developed an intuitive admin UI for managing tenants, assigning users, and inviting roles. Real-time activity logs and notifications helped track tenant behavior and system usage.

We began by conducting in-depth discovery sessions with the Nano ASP.NET team to deeply understand the problems their clients were facing in MVP development. We analyzed their current workflow, identified redundancies, and captured the vision for a reusable SaaS boilerplate. Our team also studied industry benchmarks and common architectural pain points that startups experience in the early stages. This foundation helped us align the product with real-world developer needs and use cases.
Our architects designed a scalable, maintainable, and clean layered system following SOLID principles and Domain-Driven Design (DDD). This step was critical to future-proofing the boilerplate so it could support various business use cases across multiple SaaS verticals. We finalized a hybrid multitenancy approach and ensured modularity in microservice components. Detailed solution blueprints, infrastructure diagrams, and API contracts were created to streamline the next development phase.
The project followed a two-week sprint cycle under an agile methodology that allowed rapid iteration and tight feedback loops with the client. Our cross-functional team included backend engineers, DevOps specialists, and quality analysts working collaboratively in real time. We used modern tools like Git, Jira, and CI pipelines to ensure smooth communication, version control, and high code quality. Regular reviews and sprint demos ensured transparency and course correction where needed.
Before production deployment, each module underwent rigorous testing to ensure performance, security, and stability. We performed unit tests, integration tests, and stress simulations to handle real-world SaaS workloads. Security was another critical layer, including authentication auditing and data isolation checks. The application was containerized using Docker and deployed via Azure DevOps with zero-downtime CI/CD pipelines. We also provided documentation and training for smooth post-deployment support.
