At a conference I attended a while ago, one of the CTOs noted that “these days you have to give an arm and a leg to get good software.” Looking at some project budgets, it indeed seems like it. So what should you do if you have a limited budget and still need to get a website out? Luckily there are many things you can do to reduce costs.

Drupal is a fantastic CMS to build business websites. It allows companies to start quickly, build robust solutions and iterate over time following the market requirements. It allows companies to build small websites but is also suited for large enterprise implementations. But how much does it cost to build a website on Drupal? Well, It depends on what do you want to achieve.

There is a lot of talk about headless CMSes and headless Drupal on the market. The customers are considering choosing this path. Some are however not certain what headless means and what are the pros and cons. When should headless Drupal be used? Let me explain.

There are almost a million websites built on Drupal. The websites built on Drupal are growing ever bigger. In fact, Drupal is the main CMS contender if you want to build a big website and don't want to use expensive proprietary platforms. Website generators, headless CMSes and Digital Experience Platforms architected by massive corporations, all are built on Drupal. Drupal, however, is a complex framework.

In Droptica, we have been a company working remotely since the beginning. Some of our employees work in cities in which we do not have offices, some travelled the world while continuing their day to day job. All this while providing the best Drupal support and Drupal development services possible.  Remote work, however, is not as easy as just having a laptop at home.

With the proliferation of technology, wide access for fast internet and the changing shopping habits of customers, companies place more and more focus on the way they interact with customers on-line. The term “digital customer experience” is more and more often used. Companies no longer want to build corporate websites but look for a holistic approach and try to create digital experience platforms to the digital experience. In the middle of that is the digital customer.

Digital Experience Platforms (DXP) are software solutions which aim to assist companies in optimising their client’s digital experiences consistently across every phase of the lifecycle and every communication channel. This sounds a bit complicated so let us discuss in detail what DXP platforms are and why modern companies need them. Times change and digital customers expect more With the proliferation of technology, fast internet and the rise of the digital customer, companies have to

Corporate websites are more and more important to the businesses. Yet, so many of the websites of large corporations fail to deliver any value. A quick glance at the websites of the Footsie 100 or SP 500 companies reveals glaring problems easy to spot by even an untrained eye. Why do these problems still persist? Let’s explore. 1.

Deciding on a CMS these days is not a simple task. There are many things to take into account and lot at stake. Business websites are more important then they ever were and if a business wants to communicate effectively, it needs a great website. Budgets and lead times for new CMS deployments get bigger and projects more and more complex.

A/B testing is around for a long time, yet a surprisingly small amount of companies do it. People will spend days deciding on what the main front page banner should say, but when they do decide, they never bother to check whether they were right. At our Drupal agency, we say test it! We do and we get great results.  What is A/B testing A/B testing is a practice of displaying different things to separate groups of users and measuring what works better.
