Challenges

They were relying on traditional messaging and information architecture and were shelling out heavy sums for that. Being a charitable entity, cost-effectiveness was an irrefutable challenge the organization had to deal with.

Furthermore, all their IT extravaganza wasn’t good enough to ensure a lucid collaboration channel among its faculty members and students. With so many changes in education processes taking place with the advent of the new paradigm technologies, it was indispensable for the institute to have a pan-organization collaboration network.

The changing technological environment has triggered the need to have a more interactive and collaborative framework that can help our students and faculty team to communicate better

This whole staff was preventing the IT Department from focusing on more creative and relevant applications.

After having an intense consultation with the teaching staff, students, and other members, the Institute’s top-brass found it logical to migrate their information architecture to Google Workspace.
