Navigation Failures, Functional Bugs, Design Inconsistencies, and Performance and Security Concerns Across the Platform

Website Navigation and Access Issues

Users were frequently redirected to the login page when attempting to access various links across the platform, resulting in a frustrating experience that undermined trust in the site and prevented users from reaching the content they needed.

Functional Bugs in Key Features

Recurring bugs in critical features - most notably the Program Finder - impacted the reliability and usability of the platform. Issues included problems with license lists and filtering options that made the functionality inconsistent and difficult to depend on.

Design Inconsistencies and Performance and Security Concerns

The employer portal lacked a cohesive design, making navigation difficult for users. Compounding this, the platform suffered from performance instability - particularly following updates and patches - and raised concerns about the overall security and stability of the environment.

Strategic Bug Fixing, Design Overhaul, Performance Optimisation, and Ongoing Platform Monitoring

Enhanced User Navigation

Eveliko resolved the redirection issues by debugging and fixing link navigation across the platform, ensuring users could access content without being incorrectly redirected to the login page and restoring a smooth, consistent browsing experience.

Bug Fixes and Program Finder Enhancements

All identified bugs were addressed and resolved, with particular focus on the Program Finder. Fixes included resolving license list issues and enhancing filtering options to restore the feature's reliability and improve its usability for end users.

Employer Portal Design Overhaul

A comprehensive design review of the Employer Portal was conducted, resulting in the implementation of a new skin design that improved the user interface, established visual consistency, and made it easier for users to navigate and access the information they needed.

Performance Optimisation and Security Stabilisation

Work was undertaken to stabilise the build and performance of the platform - particularly around post-patch and post-update periods - ensuring both speed and security met the required standards and the environment remained reliable over time.

Continuous Monitoring and Routine Maintenance

A routine of regular checks, database restorations, and frontend fixes was established to proactively maintain the platform's integrity, prevent recurring issues, and sustain user satisfaction on an ongoing basis.
