Benefits of Digital Transformation in Healthcare

Image
What was once a buzzword, is now an imperative. Digital transformation is ready to reshape the way healthcare is built and delivered. It stems from the idea that there’s a lot of trapped value. An analytical, personalized, and value-driven digital transformation can overhaul the system towards more efficiency, better patient care, and higher profits. The outdated siloed and slow legacy systems will make way for a modernized, agile, and resilient framework. A regional health provider achieved 2% to 7% reduction in avoidable hospital readmissions from implementing remote patient monitoring and at-home devices  — Deloitte The ROI is poised to be huge.

Top 10 UX/UI Best Practices for Your Website that transforms User Experience

Image
You build a website, but does it offer the best user experience for optimum conversions? Without the right UX/UI best practices in place, even the most visually appealing sites can suffer from low impressions, poor CTRs, and weak engagement. A lot of it comes down to the front-end designers and developers who fail to factor in key UI/UX metrics, and your business ends up with a mildly aesthetic but otherwise cluttered site. Inconsistent design, confusing navigation, or unresponsive layouts can quietly undermine user trust, lower engagement, and hurt conversions.

In this article, we break down 10 essential  UX/UI best practices  that can transform your website into a high-performing, user-first platform. These are the same principles Altumind follows to help clients build digital experiences that engage, convert, and ret...

Image
The relentless competitiveness and cost-cutting exercises have led to the creation of global talent delivery models in emerging economies — Outsourcing and Offshoring. At the heart of both lies a steady pursuit of increased output and savings. Despite the overlap in key drivers, these two aren’t the same. Their underlying principles may mimic, but they differ in execution. Both, matured and evolved and deeply entrenched in the business strategies of companies worldwide are poised to get stronger — as more talent bases come up in far-off regions. But, which one makes sense for your business? Today, in this write-up we’ll explore the two concepts in detail and understand which model fits your unique business goals. Let’s get started.

This approach allows companies to leverage specialized expertise, reduce costs, and improve efficiency by focusing on their core c...

How AI Based Knowledge Management Systems Are Transforming EdTech

Image
Students and educators are slowly gravitating towards a more modern and collaborative learning platform called the Knowledge Management System (KMS). The flexible and self-directed learning in KMS offers more support & agility and fosters better information sharing, making it more up-to-date for the learning needs of today. 73% of all surveyed Financial Service (FS) respondents indicate that knowledge management is important while only 41% of respondents indicate that they feel well-equipped to effectively create and manage knowledge. — Deloitte The on-the-go and cost-effective learning capabilities of KMS make it easier for Ed-tech institutions to store and deliver course materials — PDFs, PPTs, and other files.

Now, infused with artificial intelligence (AI), KMS will play an even bigger role in many ed-tech academies. Let’s explore how! AI Based Knowledge Management Systems: Benefits ...

Due to various reasons such as cost economics, talent shortage, etc., businesses can’t find the right talent onshore. With deadlines looming and customers waiting eagerly, any delay will cost them money and loyalty — the dent in their branding being the other consequence. It makes perfect sense to lean on nearby and distant talent at such critical junctures. This is how we get to  Nearshoring vs. Offshoring  — two talent models that support the scarcity of skilled resources in any country. A 2022 global survey of CIOs and IT decision-makers revealed that 93% say the Great Resignation has made it more difficult for IT teams to retain skilled developers —  Deloitte The purpose at the heart of both of them remains clear, getting competent and affordable talent from anywhere. Choosing between the two models hinges on several factors tailored to a business’s unique needs. In this blog, we’ll explore this and more.
