The case in a nutshell

VOL-DSC partnered with Miyagami to help solve the following design and engineering challenges: 

The client

VOL is an alumni organization of the student fraternity of DSC. They connect former members, organize events, and keep them updated with news and articles, fostering a strong sense of community among the alumni.

The challenge

The VOL website serves as the main platform for the alumni community to find information about events and other services of the alumni association. Congressus powers the backend of the website. However, the application was not mobile-friendly, leading to younger members not engaging with the platform as much as desired. Additionally, the organization lacked the ability to send notifications, hindering effective communication with its members.

Allowing users to access and interact with each other on their mobile phones seamlessly

VOL approached Miyagami to create a headless mobile application that communicates with the Congressus backend. This would allow users to access and interact with each other on their mobile phones seamlessly, enhancing the overall user experience without VOL having to manage two different systems.

A visually appealing and easy-to-navigate mobile app

To achieve this, Miyagami focused on designing a visually appealing and easy-to-navigate mobile app, incorporating features such as event listings, news updates, and member profiles. The team also implemented a notification system to keep users informed about upcoming events, news, and announcements, encouraging them to stay engaged with the platform.

The launch of the mobile app resulted in many members downloading it, leading to a significant increase in the platform's usage and conversion rate. The new mobile app enabled VOL to reach their users more easily and effectively, enhancing overall engagement within the alumni community. The streamlined communication through notifications ensured members stayed informed and connected, fostering a stronger sense of belonging.
