High security and beautiful design - The Organization of Officers in Denmark (HOD)'s new tailored platform saves time and money!

The goal

The Organization of Officers in Denmark (HOD) carries out the interests of officers and cadets in Denmark.

HOD sought to improve its digital identity with a new user-friendly platform for its 5,000 members that better reflects the modern quality and safety criteria.

As the site was to be developed for military personnel, the security of the site was paramount. Due to our previous extensive experience with such tasks, Twentyfour (formerly HTML24) was chosen as a digital provider for this huge task.

It was essential that the new hod.dk was integrated with the existing member database.

The mission

The Organization of Officers in Denmark’s wishes and demands for its new platform was understandably very high. HOD had an elegant and beautiful new site designed, which was to be coded from scratch. The site focused on improving the user experience for members and automation of support processes. The site should, therefore, be able to handle:

Creation of new members.
Individual member sites.
Calendar and news system
Blog / Chronicle / Editorial / Debate sites.
High security.
Easy to read and clear information to members.

More and more people access the internet via smartphones and tablets. Therefore, HOD wanted the new hod.dk to be developed as ‘responsive’ so that the site works optimally regardless of whether it is accessed via mobile or PC.

With Twentyfour’s almost 50,000 lines of code, hod.dk has gained a profound overhaul and looks great!

“The new site has really become user-friendly and manageable.” -Vickie Lind, Press Officer at HOD.

The result

Twentyfour developed a completely new site from scratch with a new and improved login and user creation feature that can handle the many members.

Each member of HOD also has its own member sub-page, from which the user can access his many benefits as a HOD member, change the membership, etc.

“We are very pleased with our new site. It gives our members a much better experience and gives them direct access to their individual information on pensions, insurance, etc.“- Vickie Lind, Press Officer at HOD.

The newly developed HOD.dk takes good care of visitors and shows HOD from its best side. It provides security for existing members and helps to acquire more new members.

Mission accomplished!

The new site is made easy and manageable and works perfectly across all platforms.

The same goes for the underlying system. Never has it been easier for HOD to update its site. WordPress makes it extremely simple for HOD employees to change their site content.

“The backend solution is really easy to use. We can easily make variations in the expression of the pages without it costing too much effort.“- Vickie Lind, Press Officer at HOD.

Developing the new HOD.dk has been a fantastic and exciting journey, and we are incredibly proud of the finished result!
