Building a scalable and engaging E-Learning platform: The SoftUni success story
SoftUni is Bulgaria’s leading non-formal educational organisation that provides training and professional development programs in the fields of software engineering, graphic design, and digital marketing. Founded in 2013, SoftUni has quickly established itself as an innovative organisation that offers a unique learning experience to its students. With a focus on practical learning, SoftUni provides the hands-on experience that graduates need to get a job in the tech industry.
As the demand for skilled developers continues to rise, they sought to create a comprehensive learning experience that combines expert-led instruction with interactivity. And here’s where AMBITIONED jumped in — our software development team was tasked with building a custom-made e-learning portal to support SoftUni’s unique needs.
The challenge
Tailoring a custom software comes with a set of challenges; when it comes to building a custom e-learning platform, the challenges are very distinct: make it interactive, scalable, integrated and tailored to each student’s needs.
Coding exercises, quizzes, video content — you name it. Interactivity is key when we’re talking about education, because it allows people to actively engage with the learning process. It’s also what SoftUni stands for: learning by doing.
They needed a scalable solution; a platform that will meet short-term goals, but will also thrive long-term. Said in other words, they needed to navigate a rapidly-growing user base without compromising performance or user experience.
Third-party integrations go hand-in-hand with any digital platform, and e-learning portals make no exception. Having access to resources is what makes a learning process efficient, digital or not. That’s why seamless integration with third-party tools ranked high on our priority list.
Last – but certainly not least – we needed to think about what customization would look like for SoftUni’s e-learning portal. Along with adding custom widgets to the equation, we needed to make sure that the learning paths will be tailored to each student’s individual goals.
How AMBITIONED approached the solution
After a deep dive into their unique needs, our team joined forces to develop SoftUni’s custom e-learning portal. Here’s what our solution included:
Personalised learning paths
We implemented an intelligent recommendation system that suggests courses and tracks based on students’ preferences, skill levels, and learning goals.
High-performance architecture
We wanted to create a platform that is easy to develop, maintain and scale. To achieve that, we designed a modular architecture to support the growing number of students while supporting optimal platform performance.
Engaging learning experience
We incorporated a variety of interactive content types, including code editors for hands-on exercises, automated exams for knowledge assessment, and an in-house live event streaming feature.
Seamless integrations
Smooth connection with third-party services was critical, so we made sure that payment processing and video streaming are part of SoftUni’s deeply integrated portal.

SoftUni + AMBITIONED = A scalable e-learning solution to engage over 300 000 students
We leveraged .NET and React technologies to build a custom solution, but what really helped us design the e-learning portal that SoftUni loved was our commitment to understand what the client truly needed; Not just another platform with predefined sections, but a knowledge hub to engage students and a unified place for lecturers to manage course content and student data efficiently, all wrapped up in a seamless experience.
