Our solid reputation in content management solutions underpinned our work with privacy laws information provider PL&B.
We're experienced with most content management solutions, and always match business need and budget with the most appropriate system. But in this case, PL&B were already happily using EPiServer (CMS4). However, after using this enterprise-scale solution for a number of years, the time came for them to upgrade to the latest version. At the same time. PL&B wanted to redesign their website to reflect their new branding.
We started the project from the ground up, overhauling the site architecture before planning a new user experience (UX) across a new website. The upgrade path from EPiServer CMS4 to CMS6 was not quite so simple because the current system had bespoke ecommerce functionality built in to it over the years. Also during the development, large parts of the system had to be completely rewritten due to fundamental changes in the .NET framework.
The result however was worth it and we added new functionality in the form of the EPiServer Mail module. We linked this with PL&B's membership system so the company could send personalised and targeted emails to subscribers.
"We reviewed several proposals from different agencies and Metadigital's expertise, competitive costs and understanding of our requirements stood out from the others.
Their work has exceeded our expectations. They have been flexible to our needs, offering us creative solutions in the redevelopment of our website, making it more user-friendly and easy to maintain. This gives our services greater exposure and helps to attract new business."
