CMS SUCCESS

CUSTOMIZED CMS CONSULTING

OUR CMS SUCCESS SERVICE CAN HELP YOU FIND THE PERFECT CMS.

Our content management system (CMS) services have been honed through decades of shared experience implementing countless CMSs across several different industries. At Engine Room, we know that every organization has unique technical, functional, and business requirements. That’s why our CMS consulting services match our knowledge and expertise with your business needs and budget to determine the system that is right for you.
At our core, we are detail-oriented technologists with decades of experience creating custom solutions, and your business will be no exception.

Here’s what CMS consulting at Engine Room looks like:

  • We start by conducting an in-depth analysis to understand your technical and operational requirements as well as your business goals.
  • We assess what success means for your site, considering site features and functionality, content administration and workflow, technical and non-functional requirements, performance, reliability, maintainability, accesibility, and your budget.
  • We help you choose the right CMS software for you — we offer many different platforms for your site. For example, we are an Optimizely partner, an Acquia partner, and a Pantheon partner, among others.
  • We help you implement proper website maintenance and management, such as ongoing SEO work, security, and accessibility.

READY TO IMPLEMENT A CMS?

A CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT.

Our CMS consulting services will maximize ROI for your CMS. We may be both an Optimizely and an Acquia agency, as well as a Pantheon partner, but we offer many different CMS platforms depending on your needs:

 

Many of these platforms can provide rich analytics, personalization, and marketing automation. They can also provide robust search and easy maintenance, but only if configured and customized properly. A partnership with Engine Room will ensure your success, no matter which CMS software you choose.

CMS CONSULTING IN ACTION

A mid-sized, expanding regional bank needed help cleaning up its Drupal CMS. Here’s what we ended up doing for them:

– Refactor the code-base

– Add caching using Memcache varnish and views caching

– Make site ADA WCAG 2.0 AA Compliant

– Reconstruct all forms to better integrate with back-end APIs

 

CASE STUDY

Problem:
One of the largest transit agencies in the country needed consulting services so they could select the right CMS for their new website. The website needed to support many different features, including:
  • Headless configuration
  • Heavy traffic (concurrent user numbers in the hundreds of thousands)
  • Robust and easy-to-use navigation for multiple transit modes
  • Multiple API integrations
  • Scalability in the event of massive website traffic, e.g. snowstorms or parades
  • User-friendliness for content admins
Solution:
Engine Room worked with multiple stakeholders to:
  • Define requirements (technical, business, functional)
  • Prioritize requirements
  • Gain stakeholder buy-in
  • Make a CMS recommendation
Business Benefit:
The CMS recommendation was accepted, and the company will likely save hundreds of thousands of dollars in licensing costs and millions of dollars in internal IT costs since the CMS is a managed platform. This way, the company is set up for future growth as well.
