Solutions
CTI Digital built a Drupal website that provided a solid and expandable framework for UKOCN that provided the solutions they required and also accommodates for how they wanted to work going forwards as their business needs change.
The website was built to provide forums, document library, news, feeds, recruitment, events and advertising.
The site was built with a number of Ajax features to give the website a very slick feel yet still built for accessibility that the content would still be visible.
Within the first month of the site going live it has in excess of 10,000 members.
