Challenge
However, their existing system faced limitations:
Outdated interface: The old platform had a 30% bounce rate due to its complex design, making it difficult for young learners to navigate.
Lacked project-sharing features: Only 10% of students actively used the platform for collaboration, as it lacked tools for sharing and discussing projects.
Slow performance: The website took 8+ seconds to load, leading to a 40% drop in user engagement during peak hours.
Limited scalability: With only 5,000 monthly active users, the system struggled to handle traffic spikes, especially during course registration periods.
TEKY needed a comprehensive digital solution to revolutionize their educational ecosystem.
