Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm CBDO. We are a partner of an Education start-up from Ukraine providing outstanding, sustainable education solutions for the thousands of teachers and learners worldwide.

With our modern methods, we provide everything that you may need for teaching and studying with a wide range of custom approaches like gamification, video-learning, analytical system assessing student’s progress in real-time, digital classroom activities making interaction more convenient.

Our mission is to empower continuous learning, increase engagement and break down the prejudices on the training

For what projects/services did your company hire Deluxcode?

We hire Deluxcode to design a competitive E-learning platform that could handle the many variables. Compared to other agencies we were interviewing, the team of Deluxcode has been chosen because of their understanding of the vision of where we need to be going to deliver a brilliant Learning product.

What were your goals for this project?

In the first step, we need to strategize on the overall approach to the Education platform development and to prepare detailed project documentation. We spent a week-long brainstorming process to come up with an appropriate UX/UI design based on extensive user testing and feedback gathering, then we determined which functionalities were the most important to our users.

After that, we just started the development stage. As a result, they got the job done and meet the user’s needs fully.

How did you select this vendor?

Our hiring process was too long because we were willing to find a reliable partner to create an exclusive E-Learning Platform. Our selection stopped on Deluxcode because we felt they fully understood our needs and proactively helped us get from idea to implementation since they’ve developed the Learning products before.

As a company with no technical staff, we were looking for someone who was able to translate the processes into our understanding.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

The key factor was to stand out from a dozen Learning platforms to design special features and bring them all together into a valuable solution. It was also critical to create a real classroom environment for teachers and students with features:

• assessing students learning progress
• real-time communication to correct learner’s mistakes 
• scoring their results comparing with others
• engaging all students with Collaborative Challenges & Puzzles just using their own devices

At the first stage, Deluxcode helped us with designing a proper UX with a detailed roadmap that covered all the requested features and creating awesome UI to track efficiently all student progress in a beautiful overview. From the technological side, we come up with a solution to choose the modernized frameworks React.js, Node.js for creating a web version.

After the web version was in demand It was reasonable to build mobile options using (React Native/Ionic) since it’s a convenient way for students to learn not being at home. As the volume of learning materials was impressive, we combined the Library with a wide range of topics, different categories of subjects, sessions with more than 25,000 questions.

As a conclusion, we received a well-design Learning solution being used by 30,000 users from all the world per day.

What was the team composition?

To deliver to this project on both web and mobile, there has been allocated a team of 10 people:

• PM, UI/UX designer
• 2x Front-End developers
• 3x Back-end developers
• 2x QA Engineers
• DevOps.

Currently, some of the developer’s are continuing supporting the platform.

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

Before releasing the E-Learning product, we launched the beta version to analyze how the teachers and students interact with the product in terms of UX to understand what features are necessary and what is irrelevant. As we had a lot of competitors in the Education area, we need to attract a lot of users by making the platform in some way.

After making a wide range of audition and attempts in changing UX and marketing activities to get the appropriate result in the user’s attendance. Initially, we reached the mark from 0 to 7,100 users per day and gradually the number of users was growing. In 2.5 years we arrived at 30,000 users a day worldwide and converted this amount into 3,200 students.

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

I want to highlight Deluxcode’s effectiveness from the project management standpoint, which was one of the crucial factors of productive workflows between the teams of 10 people.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

As I mentioned before, we selected a technology partner who would be competent enough in the Education area. We knew that hiring someone technically cool but not be confident in the knowledge of the Education domain. Fortunately, with Deluxcode, we didn’t face any difficulties owing to their understanding of both the technological and business aspects of the project.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I assume, no. We are glad about what Deluxcode has produced and with their support continues to this day.
