How our new features impacted their business
The Drupal 6 to 7 migration was seamless for all the sites. We also built the custom modules needed that were not supported in Drupal 7 to ensure a smooth transition for the client.We also implemented was a location based configuration which had been the client's biggest challenge. They have over 300 representatives across the world and for customers to reach out their nearby representatives, this feature was critical to client’s business success. They also had plenty of child websites which all had a different look and feel. For better branding, we worked on the UI/UX of all the websites to make them look and feel similar to the parent website.
Also, their website was not performing well in search engine rankings.We performed on page and off page Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to provide better ranking for the site. With respect to the Drupal site back end, we created custom functionality enhancements to help them upload content seamlessly to provide a better lead generation mechanism.
