About the Client
Ramakrishna Mission Sikshanamandira (RKMSM) is a premier autonomous post-graduate college in West Bengal, India. As an educational institution rooted in the ideals of Swami Vivekananda, RKMSM is committed to fostering value-based education for future educators and scholars.

The Challenge
Over the years, RKMSM had built a robust online presence with a custom PHP-based website and an admission portal to manage their academic processes, including online applications and fee submissions. However, as the number of applicants and digital interactions grew, they began facing several challenges:

  • Legacy code issues that made the website difficult to maintain and scale.
  • Security concerns around sensitive applicant and payment data.
  • High third-party payment gateway charges, impacting the affordability of online payments for students.
  • Non-responsive and outdated UI/UX, leading to a suboptimal user experience on mobile and modern devices.

    The Solution by Xigmapro
    Xigmapro partnered with RKMSM to undertake a comprehensive website and admission portal redesign, focusing on modernizing technology, enhancing security, and improving user experience.
