Supporting a Broad Legal Technology Platform
Centerbase provides law firms with a cloud-based platform designed to help them capture more time, get paid faster, manage firm operations, and deliver better service to their clients.
Supporting that platform requires coordinated engineering across a wide range of interconnected product areas, including:
- Billing and integrated accounting
- Timekeeping and reporting
- Matter and document management
- Calendaring and client experience
- Android and iOS applications
- Credit card payments and e-billing
EVIZI™ worked alongside Centerbase across multiple cross-functional Scrum teams. Each team focused on a dedicated product area while contributing to a consistent development and release process across the broader platform.
The Engineering Requirement
Centerbase needed engineering and quality assurance support capable of working across multiple features, technologies, and release paths.
The engagement required teams that could:
- Maintain and enhance existing web and mobile functionality
- Develop new product features
- Integrate payment and e-billing systems
- Improve application performance and usability
- Expand and maintain test coverage
- Respond quickly when urgent production issues arose
The goal was not a single implementation or isolated release. It was continuous product engineering across a complex legal technology platform.
EVIZI’s Approach
Agile Product Engineering
The engineers worked within Centerbase’s feature-focused Scrum teams to maintain and enhance web and mobile capabilities.
This cross-functional delivery model supported ongoing development across billing, accounting, timekeeping, reporting, matter management, calendaring, document management, client experience, mobile applications, and payments.
Payment and E-Billing Integrations
The teams implemented integrations with Payrix and Stripe, supporting credit card transactions for Centerbase’s law firm customers.
EVIZI™ also helped connect eBillingHub with Centerbase to improve and streamline electronic billing workflows.
Performance and Product Improvements
The engagement included stored procedure optimization and improvements to the Centerbase Office add-in.
The team also proposed and implemented user experience and technical solutions as part of the ongoing feature-development process.
Embedded Quality Engineering
Quality assurance was integrated into the development lifecycle.
The team continuously enhanced test documentation and test cases to maintain comprehensive coverage as the platform evolved. EVIZI also provided responsive support for urgent issues, helping Centerbase maintain platform availability and a reliable end-user experience.
Technology Environment
The engagement included:
Languages
C#, JavaScript, HTML, CSS
Frameworks
.NET Framework, .NET Core, ASP.NET MVC, React, Flutter
Data and Infrastructure
Microsoft SQL Server, Redis, Azure, Kubernetes, Kafka
Delivery and Collaboration

Results
The engagement supported a consistent release cycle for delivering new features and platform improvements.
Key outcomes included:
- Payrix and Stripe integrations for credit card transactions
- eBillingHub integration for more efficient e-billing workflows
- Improved system performance through stored procedure optimization
- Improvements to the Centerbase Office add-in
- New UX and technical solutions contributed by the EVIZI team
- Expanded and continuously maintained QA documentation and test coverage
- Responsive resolution of urgent issues
- Ongoing product delivery across web and mobile environments
By working directly within Centerbase’s Scrum teams, EVIZI™ provided product engineering and quality support across the platform; not simply for one feature or one release.
The result was an engineering relationship designed to support continuous delivery, platform performance, and the ongoing evolution of a complex legal practice management product.
