We conceive, design and implement large portals for colleges and universities. We pay particular attention to the highest level of security, scalability, data protection and a design optimized for mobile devices - please take a look at our references.

Online learning worlds with diverse benefits

Modern web presences of large educational institutions fulfill the most diverse requirements of heterogeneous user groups. A university website must always be accessible, even when a popular live streaming event starts or the enrolment period ends in a few days. We create highly performant, preferably open source-based websites, including update and upgrade security.

Another complex challenge is the integration of internal and external university IT environments. By intelligently linking learning platforms and content management systems such as TYPO3, your students receive an optimal digital learning environment. To this end, we integrate systems from the areas of e-learning, library and directory data and media databases into a coherent web presence.

Comprehensive services from a single source

All websites created by us guarantee 100% compliance with the GDPR and all other data protection guidelines. We also support you in achieving your goals in the areas of accessibility. Discover our diverse portfolio for yourself:

  • Creation and operation of web portals for colleges and universities
  • Use of established open source software such as TYPO3 or Pimcore
  • Integrated use of e-learning such as Moodle or Illias and directories
  • Implementation of modern and secure single sign-on systems for greater convenience
  • Migration of complete websites and databases to new systems
  • Dynamic and secure integration of external IT systems
  • Use of various API connections such as SOAP, LDAP or REST possible
  • Robust, automated deployment processes incl. TDD and Selenium testing

Mobile first for every screen size

If the student at the bus stop can browse the research database or the student at the open day can find their way to the lecture hall on their own thanks to their smartphone - then your university is truly mobile. Thanks to responsive design and the "mobile first" and "content first" paradigms we follow, your university website will work for every device, with content that is relevant to your target groups.

Agile project management for educational institutions

We work according to the Scrum project management method in order to deliver the best possible result within a specified timeframe and on a fixed budget. This offers many advantages for your university. These include more functionality and transparency, which enable changes to be made at any time to achieve optimal solutions. And thanks to smart prioritization, we also offer our customers the highest possible cost and deadline security.

Working according to Scrum principles is also possible for public clients without any problems. Everyone knows the pitfalls of failed waterfall projects. And there are no contractual difficulties either. A predefined EVB-IT contract is supplemented by the Scrum guidelines for the implementation of the order. Numerous universities are happy to confirm our punctual and error-free project delivery thanks to Scrum.
