Project Overview

Outcome

A responsive, attractive, and informative website to illustrate the business and its portfolio.

Timeline

2 Months

Problems

Okelta technologies faced significant challenges due to following reasons. 

  1. Current website was using a very old technology which was built in early 2000
  2. Responsiveness and Accessibility issues: The website lacked accessibility for certain devices because it was not built using responsiveness. Other accessibility concerns were not focused in this legacy website
  3. Outdated information. The website had outdated information. 
  4. No options for content management: The legacy website didn’t have convenient options for content management
  5. Unattractive design: The legacy website didn’t focus on UX/UI best practices

Solutions

The solution is to create a new website to address the current problems. 

  1. Responsive: The new website is responsive, which means it can be accessed through multiple devices
  2. Accessible: The accessibility concerns such as color contrast, and font sizes were focused. Accessibility options for users are available through a toolbar
  3. CMS System: A CMS system was implemented on the backend to enable a convenient option for content management
  4. UI/UX best practices were used to build the website
  5. The content was updated with the latest information
