A IT Craft Case Study
Massolution engaged IT Craft to build a crowdsourcing and crowdfunding website that would use community-driven content to grow engagement and support fundraising. The challenge was to create a flexible platform where users could upload blogs, questions & answers, articles, documents, sites and videos, and where crowd participation (comments, ratings, ranking) and social integration were native features. IT Craft implemented the site using PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, HTML/CSS on a Linux/Apache stack.
IT Craft delivered a Web 2.0–style platform that enables user-generated content, collaboration and crowdfunding, with built-in commenting, rating and ranking plus integration with Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. The result is a rich, crowd-powered site that supports broad content uploads and social sharing to drive participation; the case text does not provide numerical KPIs, but the implementation explicitly enabled increased user engagement and crowdsourcing workflows for Massolution.
