About | Championing Media Accessibility and Innovation

SkyTV, a leading broadcaster and telecommunications provider in the UK, is dedicated to transforming how consumers and businesses access and enjoy media. With the goal of enhancing user engagement and streamlining service delivery, SkyTV continuously seeks innovative solutions to stay at the forefront of the media industry.

Challenge | Overcoming Digital Obsolescence

The company was hindered by an outdated website that detracted from user engagement and hampered service scalability. This old platform was cumbersome to navigate and lacked essential functionalities that modern consumers have come to expect. The inefficiency of the platform increased reliance on call centers and limited effective self-service capabilities. Additionally, the platform's inability to scale efficiently made it difficult to manage high-demand events and regular content updates.

Solution | Transitioning to Liferay's Digital Experience Platform

In response to these challenges, SkyTV adopted the Liferay Experience Cloud Self-Managed (SM) platform. This choice was driven by the platform's ability to streamline operations, enhance the customer experience, and provide the needed agility to respond to dynamic market demands.

Implementation | Strategic and Phased Rollout

The implementation was strategically planned over ten months and executed in two phases to minimize disruption. The initial phase focused on establishing a robust backend infrastructure to support a dynamic content management system. The second phase involved refining user interfaces and integrating functionalities that facilitated self-service and personalized interactions.

Outcome | Enhancing Operations and Customer Interactions

SkyTV's operational capabilities and customer interactions significantly. The redesign of the website improved navigation and user interface, which led to a 7% increase in cart acquisition. A new 'My Account' section enabled a 140% increase in self-service interactions. Additionally, the shift to a cloud-based platform with an integrated CI/CD pipeline allowed for quicker updates and better scalability, enabling the company to effectively handle increased demand during peak times.

Conclusion | Setting New Industry Standards

SkyTV's successful implementation of the Liferay Experience Cloud SM has set new standards in customer satisfaction and business efficiency within the digital broadcasting industry. This transformation has not only enhanced SkyTV's current capabilities but also positioned it for ongoing innovation, ensuring its continued leadership in the industry.
