We've designed and developed a powerful suite of in-house applications that have become invaluable to keeping our processes effective and efficient.
CabedgePatch™
Reviewing and approving visual designs can be challenging. We created the cabedgepatch as a web-based presentation tool to create controlled and collaborative review experiences. Whether in our office or on the phone, you’ll see exactly what we see. You can even approve your design choice with this utility.
Silo™
We created Silo as a basic administrative framework. Silo uses applications we develop to perform the exact functions needed to manage the content of your site. Customized for each project, it’s exactly what’s needed and only what’s needed. Should your needs ever change, Silo can change with them.
Estimator™
We've never had a client that didn't ask, "So, how much will this cost?" To help us answer this critical question as accurately as possible, we developed this simple tool. Its calculations help us define the amount of work required to accomplish the goals of your project.
TimeBuzzard™
We're always seeking to better our time and cost estimations. We created Time Buzzard to help us track all the types of work needed to accomplish projects. Its real-time reports produce a dashboard of informative charts and graphs that help us continually refine and streamline our activities.
We also employ outside services to
assist with our day-to-day work.
Django
When a framework promotes itself as "the Web Framework for perfectionist with deadlines," our ears perk up. A robust, reliable, cost-efficient and well-maintained web development framework, Django is used by a growing list of companies including Google, The Washington Post, PBS, The Discovery Network and National Geographic, to name a few.
Wordpress
As one of the most effective and widespread web platforms, Wordpress is the only pre-fabricated CMS we use. Perfect for the less complicated sites we develop, it’s a cost-effective and easy tool with a great support network including a worldwide base of innovative developers.
BaseCamp
This web-based project management tool has become a very effective way for us to communicate with clients. More than just messages, we can send and receive files, manage timelines and keep all communication about a project in one place. It’s completely secure and so easy to use.
Google Analytics
When it comes to web data gathering, Google leads the industry with its free, scalable and easy-to-use analytics tool. It allows you to track information about your website in incredibly sophisticated and customizable ways. The proper interpretation of all that information helps you make the right decisions about what to do next based on your audience's behaviors.
Amazon S3
This extremely powerful and reliable data storage and retrieval service has the benefit of also being very inexpensive. For our clients who need to store large files like imagery, audio and video, the Amazon S3 service is our preferred choice. It's remarkably secure, seemingly bottomless and more cost effective than any other service we can find.
Campaign Monitor
There are plenty of email campaign management companies out there but few truly good ones. First and foremost, Campaign Monitor gives us the most flexibility with the design of emails. Almost equally important are the powerful analytics our clients get from their campaigns in easy-to-read and understand reports. It works great inside and out.
Rackspace
As the world's leader in Internet hosting services, all Rackspace does is hosting. They have unbeatable uptime guarantees and 24/7 support. We use them to host any client's site that is hosted with us. Plus, as our client, you can rest easy knowing that we'll talk the tech with them to make sure your site stays up and works great.
