Tech stack

The Iscte – Meta Digital platform uses a technology stack comprising WordPress, Elementor, and MySQL, chosen for its user-friendliness and efficiency. WordPress was selected because it is well-known and easy for the client’s content management team to operate, allowing them to update and manage content without additional training. Elementor enhances the platform’s design and allows easier future interventions of the client’s internal team due to its versatile page-building tools, while MySQL underpins the system with strong relational data management capability. This combination ensures a smooth user interface and robust backend functionality, supporting everything from user registration to content delivery.

This platform significantly enhances the user experience by providing a streamlined, accessible, and efficient educational environment.

 

Within just a few months of its launch, the system has already attracted hundreds of registrations, demonstrating its effectiveness and appeal. The automated notification system keeps users well-informed about course availability, updates, and payment processes, ensuring they are engaged and can plan their learning journey effectively.

They met the brief and did it in a timely manner, this was very important because we were working on a tight schedule. They were available to make last minute changes and deliver them almost immediately.
