Our partners get on with business as usual safe in the knowledge they have a robust platform with a wealth of expertise to support them.

So how then is this peace of mind maintained? Catalyst’s answer to a robust platform is our load testing services, capable of providing valuable insight, peace of mind and assurance that your web application will not falter when facing high concurrency and site activity.

We run reports and load tests to discover how an institution’s LMS platform copes with peak site traffic and how many concurrent users they can sustain before considering upgrading infrastructure.

We measure response times, or the speed at which the site is able to deliver and process information. We investigate user journeys, overall site activity and possible weak links in user experience. By using comprehensive graphs and diagrams your web application performance is accurately charted.

ISO certified for data security and peace of mind. The safeguarding of information stored in the cloud is a prime consideration and remains uppermost in the minds of all our global institutions currently. Where their data is stored and what procedures are in place to protect it are of paramount importance.

That’s why it is critical to choose a Moodle partner with ISO certification, ISO27001. With Catalyst best practices and policies exist for the continuation of business. In an ever-changing digital landscape having best practices in place can help minimise the risk of your data being compromised.

ISO27001 gives you peace of mind that your customers’ data and reputation are safeguarded.
