Working with volunteers mostly happens on-site – on the grounds, behind the bar, or at the entrance. That’s why we’ve completely reimagined the Syrakus Community Portal and released it as a Progressive Web App (PWA).

Mobile First

The new portal feels like a native app on your smartphone. You can save it directly to your home screen for lightning-fast access to your shifts. Thanks to PWA technology, the portal is extremely high-performance and optimized for mobile use.

Integrated News System

Forget messenger groups or endless email chains. With the new News System, organizers can publish important information directly in the Community Portal. Whether it’s last-minute changes, briefings, or words of thanks after the event – your crew will find everything in one central place.

Extended Profiles & Safety

Safety comes first. Volunteers can now store important additional information directly in their profile:

  • Emergency Contacts: So that the right people can be informed immediately in an emergency.
  • Dietary Preferences: Whether vegetarian, vegan, or allergies – the catering team knows.

Everything at a Glance: Event Filters and Detailed Views

The new event list and detailed shift views make it easy for the crew to find their way around. You can immediately see which zone you are assigned to and who your teammates are. This strengthens cohesion and efficiency on-site.
