About The Customer
Next Tech is a company that aims to help individuals and enterprise teams gain in-demand developer skills quickly and easily. They have built an online environment where students can create and learn while accessing everything they need, right from their browser. The company's goal is to make online tech education as powerful as in-person learning, with a focus on real-time, reliable collaboration. However, they were facing challenges with their collaboration infrastructure, which was affecting the learning experience for both students and instructors.
The Challenge
Next Tech, an online tech education platform, was facing significant challenges with its collaboration infrastructure. The platform was built on Firebase and was critical for instructor-led learning. However, it was struggling with uptime and speed, leading to a poor experience for both students and instructors. The company's goal was to make online tech education as powerful as in-person learning by enabling reliable, real-time collaboration. However, the existing infrastructure was not able to meet these requirements. Next Tech tried several alternatives, including Cloud Firestore, Action Cable, Pushpin, and Nchan, but none of these solutions were able to meet the company's needs for a reliable and fast collaboration platform.
The Solution
Next Tech decided to move to PubNub to solve its collaboration infrastructure issues. The company was able to integrate PubNub into its e-learning solution in just a few days, thanks to the platform's ease of use. This allowed Next Tech to do nearly all of the implementation on their own. With PubNub, students and instructors can now easily discuss topics, teams can collaborate on projects, and everyone can focus on advancing their tech skills. PubNub's real-time collaboration infrastructure has put Next Tech at the forefront of delivering tech education, enabling them to maintain a focus on collaborative and low-barrier learning by eliminating platform frustrations.
Operational Impact
  • With the integration of PubNub, Next Tech has been able to significantly improve the learning experience for its students and instructors. The new collaboration infrastructure provides reliable, real-time engagement, enabling students and instructors to easily discuss topics and teams to work together on projects. This has eliminated the frustrations previously experienced with the platform, allowing everyone to focus on advancing their tech skills. Furthermore, the ease of use of the PubNub platform enabled Next Tech to do nearly all of the implementation on their own, leading to a fast time-to-market.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Integration of PubNub into Next Tech's e-learning solution was completed in just a few days
  • The new solution provides reliable real-time engagement across students, teams, and instructors
  • The platform's ease of use allowed Next Tech to do nearly all of the implementation on their own
