Case Study: How Wix Uses RumbleTalk for an Integrated Group Chat Platform

With over one hundred million users and counting, Wix is indisputably one of today’s favored website building platforms (aka CMS). It allows users to create modern websites via simple drag and drop visual tools— no knowledge of coding required.

In 2014, we partnered up with Wix to offer its customers a unique chat room platform solution. To date, there have been over one hundred thousand installations!

How It Works ?

“The RumbleTalk online group chat platform is the fastest and easiest way to add a full blown stylish chat room to your site. And our customers? They simply love RumbleTalk!! We have more than 100,000 customer-created chat rooms using RumbleTalk.”
~ Avishai Abrahami
CEO, Wix

It all began a few years ago. Wix was looking for a chat room platform to offer its users with a new app market. The difficulty, however, was finding one that would integrate easily with its native systems.

wix chat room integration and settings

At RumbleTalk, we built a seamless out-of-the-box integrated group chat. This way, almost all of the integration is done via our unique API. By putting in the work up front and from our end, it meant it didn’t require much for Wix to get it ready and running.

Simply put, while normally there’s so much to set up with APIs, we’ve created a package offering that you can just plug and play (into any admin panel).

How It’s Used

Now that’s it’s been integrated, Wix users can add a group chat powered by RumbleTalk anywhere to their custom websites via a click of a button. Best of all, the basic package is completely free!

And for those who require a more robust chatting experience for more users at a time, there is a special “premium” package offering at a highly-discounted price.

Either way, Wix’s user base now has a state-of-the-art group chat platform option that users can seamlessly integrate into their custom websites. It’s win-win!

Important Tip for Wix Users

Here’s a quick tip for our Wix users: in Wix, there are two types of editors—one for desktop and one for mobile. So, in order for the group chat to display on both desktop and mobile versions of your Wix website, you need to verify that the chat shows in both of the editors (if not, simply add it).

The Way Forward

With Wix’s seamless and successful integration of RumbleTalk chat, together we have been able to power over one hundred thousand group chats far and wide across the web. We highly encourage all Wix users to take advantage of the free trial offering here.

But this is just the start. We really look forward to seeing many more successful integrations with other great platforms like Wix in the future!

Case Study: Ministry of Education Uses RumbleTalk Chat to Build an Online Academy

The Israeli Ministry of Education is responsible for the curriculum and upkeep of public education across the country of Israel in both Arabic and Hebrew. It serves approximately 1.4 million students per year with a budget allocation of approximately 11.5 billion U.S. dollars.

Recently, it launched a revolutionary new program called the “Online Academy.” RumbleTalk is proud that its chat rooms service now powers it.

Online Academy Remote Learning

With RumbleTalk chat rooms, teachers can now hold classes for students remotely. There have been talks on extra-curricular topics and activities such as music and clean energy, and events surrounding public holidays. All-in-all, it means students can tune in from home to brush up on their knowledge and skills in so many unique new areas.

In the past field trips were restricted by budget. Now, students have many more opportunities to see and explore things from a distance too. And of course, many fun and entertaining events are also offered for children nationwide.

Best of all, the rooms are completely interactive. Students can ask a question at any time. The moderator or lecturer will see this and can choose whether or not to respond in real-time. Or if they prefer, they can wait for the right moment.

For Teachers

Beyond the myriad of benefits for students, the Online Academy also serves to help teachers further their own skills. For example, we’ve seen talks on important subjects such as how to use new technologies and innovations in the classroom.

In the past, teachers would gather outside school hours to attend such events at a physical location. Now they can do so right from the comfort of their own homes! This means that the Ministry offers more training sessions given by highly-respected educators and luminaries than ever before.

Strong “Spam”/Intruder/Trolling Filter

Finally, another important safety feature to mention is the spam filter. Being that these chat rooms are for students and teachers, it’s very important that only those who should be there, are there. As such, we have set them up with the very best spam filters, ensuring that trolls cannot get in. Moreover, in the event someone misbehaves, they can be ejected and blocked from returning simply with the click of a button.

Educating for the Future

We have been amazed by the Online Academy’s successful implementation of RumbleTalk chat rooms in this most important cause so far. We love the way they use the Rumbletalk API and CSS design option. We look forward to seeing many more great events and programs unveiled by the Ministry in the future!
