Vocala work with growing businesses to provide digital solutions designed to make an impact on their business operations; from customer-facing apps, to internal portals and CRM tools, to bright and punchy mobile games. They have a wealth of industry experience and understand the intricacies of taking a development project from conception to completion, and to be honest, they’re damn good at what they do.
They love working with businesses to help bring ideas to life and streamline workflows through any digital tools necessary - whether that’s building prototypes for startups, or managing company-wide systems for larger organisations.
I’ve been working with Vocala since 2015; first partnering with them to create digital events and delegate management solutions, and then working with them to create engaging creative for their wide-ranging portfolio of clients. No two projects are the same, so here are a few examples.
Vocala are pioneering the use of Alexa Smart Properties tools to support residents in care homes, as well as the nurses and teams looking after them. Together, we designed and built an interface that enables easy smart property management across a portfolio of care homes and residencies. This doubles as a project management tool, translating 'Alexa' commands into actions that the nursing team can then work on.
My work on this project covered marketing materials (case studies, social posts, proposal/pitch documents) as well as UX design and UI design for both client (web portal) and user (Alexa screen devices).
Vocala are the go-to Alexa developers in the UK, and they’re fantastic at creating user-friendly Alexa widgets for Alexa screen devices. NHS CouchTo5K needed a user-friendly, engaging Alexa widget to add into their ecosystem, that would both delight, engage and inspire.
We worked together to highlight key features from their popular phone app, and translate them into an Alexa widget - creating custom artwork and supportive messages for users.
Arc Pathway help parents and nurseries to track the development of early years children, using expert insights to guide, inform and educate users on the benchmarks children may be hitting at each age milestone. While they had an app already, they were looking to update the look-and-feel to be brighter and more engaging, without being childish or patronising. They also wanted to add a number of new features into the app that would allow Arc Pathway to be used as a one-stop-shop to track all areas of a child’s development.
Vocala and I worked together in client briefing workshops to understand the features and use-cases of the app, before wireframing, designing and building our solution. We also developed their brand identity too; introducing graphics, and elements that would breathe life into the project.
Quba Solutions are a recruitment funding solutions provider, providing finance and back-office capability in one platform.
