Nonprofit Removes Technology Gridlocks with XPERTECHS
A well-known nonprofit, whose mission is to certify the standards of education programs, was facing considerable difficulties with its key web application. This tool, integral in reaching a global audience of 10,000, was experiencing severe performance issues. These problems were especially noticeable during large world conferences hosted by the nonprofit, leading to erratic system behavior and interruptions.
The organization had another challenge— its IT setup. As the reach of the application grew broader over time, the nonprofit’s technology network evolved into a complicated mesh of servers. This tangled web made the system unruly to manage and intimidating to update. Despite the diligent efforts of an in-house team, their limited resources and expertise made it clear that external assistance was required.
For an organization whose purpose depended on measuring standards, the failure to reliably serve its international audience was an urgent issue. Recognizing the need for a more robust and adaptable technology foundation, the nonprofit sought assistance from XPERTECHS to revitalize their IT infrastructure and prepare for future demands.
