TeamTeach Launches a Low-Maintenance, Single-Codebase Education App

Team Teach, the training arm of Empowering Learning, equips schools and associations with essential education training. 

To better serve their audiences in the UK and overseas, Team Teach wanted a mobile app that mirrored their website’s functionality without the complexity and cost of a custom build. 

With MobiLoud’s help, they launched a seamless, fully managed app that now serves as a direct, engaging channel to their learners.

Vertical: Education & Training

Business Impact:

• Single codebase eliminates duplicate development work
• Immediate app updates when website changes are made
• Push notifications driving better engagement vs email
• Full app maintenance handled by MobiLoud
• Headache-free development and ongoing management

"You're very diligent in what you do. You're extremely responsive and actually a real pleasure to work with."
- Ben Glazebrook, Group IT Director

The Roadblock

Team Teach wanted to provide their website functionality through a dedicated mobile app for both UK and Australian markets.

The challenge was finding a solution that wouldn't require maintaining separate codebases or dedicating significant development resources to app-specific functionality. 

They needed an approach that would use their existing investment in their website, while providing the native app experience that people today expect.

Why They Chose MobiLoud

MobiLoud's approach solved Team Teach's core requirements perfectly.

"It made sense because we wanted to make use of our existing functionality and have a single codebase that enabled us to just be able to then deliver to both desktop and mobile scenarios without us having to have a dedicated codebase directly for an app."

The key advantages that attracted Team Teach to MobiLoud included:

• Single codebase approach that leverages existing website functionality
• Immediate reflection of website changes in the app
• No need for dedicated app development resources
• Full-service approach with ongoing maintenance included

Launch & Results

The Team Teach Connect app launch delivered exactly what the company needed - a professional mobile presence without operational headaches.

“MobiLoud takes a lot of the headaches away from the project. They fully maintain the app, and make it a headache free journey going forward. Just taking all that admin, that hard work away from me having to worry about it, it's a godsend really.”

The app has proven particularly effective for push notifications. Ben mentions that push has been far more effective at getting new content, offerings, training materials and updates in front of users, with immediate visibility compared to the delays from email.

The Takeaway

For education and training companies like Team Teach, a mobile app provides important customer validation and improved engagement opportunities.

MobiLoud's single-codebase approach eliminates the traditional barriers to app development - you don't need separate development teams or the headache of ongoing maintenance.

Push notifications alone provide a powerful direct line to engaged customers, delivering better response rates than email for time-sensitive content and course announcements.

If you want to provide your customers with a professional mobile app experience without the development complexity, MobiLoud makes it simple.
