The company is a learning management system and eLearning app development agency that builds, hosts and maintains custom-built learning management systems (LMS) and other learning technologies for businesses.
Established in 2014, the company is a learning management system and eLearning app development agency that builds, hosts and maintains custom-built learning management systems (LMS) and other learning technologies for businesses. The company began its life as a web design and development agency, however in 2020, it evolved from web design generalists into LMS specialists, and has since gained a number of prestigious B2B and B2C clients.
The company’s core services comprise of LMS design and development, hosting, systems maintenance and consultancy. At present, the majority of its development projects utilise WordPress and LearnDash as the foundational open-source technology; the team then builds upon these technologies by adding unique features, integrations and user interfaces. With ongoing maintenance and development contracts and frequent new development assignments for these WordPress-based systems, they continue to be the principal revenue driver for the company.
However, with increasing enterprise demand, the company has been focusing to a greater extent on Node.js-based products, which are highly scalable and reliable. It is moving towards exclusively serving enterprises, as these projects generate significantly more revenue than WordPress-based systems. The processes related to these new Node.js-based products are not currently very optimised or efficient. For this reason, the company is beginning to build its own one-size-fits-all product that meets most enterprise needs; the product, however, will remain adaptive and customizable in nature. If successful, this product would improve the scalability of the company, allowing it to generate significantly more revenue without needing to recruit a larger team.
