Parents & teachers were talked with before the product login, to gather feedback before launching. Here are some of the feedback & results.

Responsive website for parents which is different from CMS, because the parents check the messages from schools after work.

After the comprehensive UI design, we found that the students can be from Wellington or Huili schools, so that neutral color and logo are used before authentication.
