Drupal is content management software that serves as the backbone for developing flexible web experiences. It offers impressive performance, easy authoring tools, and world-class security as standard features – but what truly sets Drupal apart is its flexibility: its modular architecture enables developers to tailor digital experiences for all sorts of purposes, structures, and styles of websites.
Drupal offers over 46,000 modules covering an array of functions such as form creation, personalization, CRM integrations, commerce and analytics. Furthermore, Drupal supports over 2,500 themes to customize the look and feel of websites without the need for custom code – giving developers freedom to craft unique digital experiences without restrictions of custom coding.
Drupal allows developers to craft powerful and engaging websites, mobile apps, portals and headless applications quickly and efficiently. It serves as the backbone for social media platforms, email newsletters, e-commerce solutions and more – with organizations worldwide using Drupal to build everything from enterprise websites and portals to eCommerce stores and mobile applications; even intranets and employee experience applications!
First step of implementing Drupal for business purposes is choosing an appropriate platform and selecting an agency or team to assist you with its development. Working with an agency that specializes in Drupal development has many advantages; their expert guidance can guide you from sitemap creation through user interface design and functionality implementation and third-party webservice integration to integrate your new system with other systems within your organization.
Drupal was initially developed by Dries Buytaert, a Belgian developer seeking an online presence for his political campaign. The site created with Drupal served as an example of how structured content should be integrated and managed on the web; eventually becoming so popular that in 2007 Dries and Jay Batson co-founded Acquia as the premier Drupal consulting firm.
Drupal now powers one out of ten enterprise-grade digital experiences. Without vendor lock-in and supported by an expansive open source community, Drupal delivers more innovation than its proprietary peers. Used across organizations for various roles such as digital experience designers, content strategists, editors, developers, and digital marketers – Drupal remains an unparalleled choice!
Top companies and government agencies around the globe depend on Drupal for their websites, mobile apps, portals, and other applications. Drupal powers websites used by Warner Music, NASA, London’s City Hall, Amnesty International and Amnesty International that inform, engage and connect with their audiences; while also powering digital experiences of over 100 million people every month on CNN Time The Economist sites. Drupal’s flexibility, scalability and reliability make it the ideal solution for projects of all sizes from small businesses to Fortune 500 enterprises alike!
