Content Management
Social Media Integration, Rich Media Content, Communities, Collaboration Platforms
We at UFirst Group ask ourselves: what information is important for your specific business case? In addition to a technical audit, our methodology includes a diligent analysis of your user requirements. Allowing your users to easily find information is just as important as displaying the relevant information at the right place and time. Your business requirements provide the foundation for this analysis.
Our technical competencies go far beyond setting up a CMS. We integrate, extend, design and improve. Our agile methodology allows us to involve both Business and IT in the development process. Close and constant collaboration with all stakeholders is very important to us to ensure your project is technically feasible and can be implemented on time and on budget to your full satisfaction. Our integrated project environment facilitates this process by allowing you to access code, technical and design specification and documentation at all times.
Our agile methodology involves the end user. Starting from the prototype phase, user testing ensures that the most important stakeholders are not forgotten. The work is not finished after a successful go live. Constant analysis ensures that changing client and user needs are recognized and can be met.
Drupal, Silverstripe and Typo3. Our Open Source Content Management Systems
We breathe open source. We are convinced that open source software provides the flexibility you need for an intranet or extranet project. Our broad knowledge of open source technologies allows us to select the best solution to cover your technical requirements. Are you looking for a portal solution in a J2EE environment? Our Liferay expertise will certainly help. Are you focused on PHP and are you looking for a cool and playful site with heavy interaction? In this case we'd propose one of the proven systems Drupal, Silverstripe or Typo3. Do you want the crispness of Drupal/Silverstripe running in a Java Environment? We'd most likely recommend using the Swiss product Yanel developed by Wyona.
Spoilt for Choice
"Which Content Management System should we choose?" We have been asked this many times, and the answer is: The one that fits your needs best. Make your decision carefully. At UFirst, we have the freedom of choice as we are not a software vendor: our decision is based on user and customer needs. We have prepared a comparison of Drupal and Typo3, the two systems we see used most. Look at it here Typo3 vs. Drupal.
