Drupal development

While we work on a range of Content Management Systems, one of Netuxo's specialities is in the development of Drupal-based websites, web-applications and custom modules.

Drupal is a professional quality, open source software package that allows an individual or a community of users to easily publish, manage and organise a wide variety of content on a website. Tens of thousands of people and organisations are using Drupal, to power scores of different web sites.

From web giants Yahoo! to rock monsters Metallica, Drupal is increasingly becoming the Content Management System (CMS) of choice. NGOs and campaign groups - such as Amnesty International, Oxfam and Greenpeace - have also been quick to see the potential and have all invested in developing stunning Drupal-powered websites.

The built-in functionality of Drupal, combined with dozens of freely available add-on modules, enables features such as: Content Management Systems Blogs Collaborative authoring environments Forums Peer-to-peer networking Newsletters Podcasting Picture galleries File uploads and downloads

... and much more.

Benefits of Drupal

Drupal is open-source software distributed under the GPL (GNU General Public License) and is maintained and developed by a community of thousands of users and developers, rather than by a particular corporation.

The benefits of this are many:

  • there is no initial cost in purchasing the package
  • you are not forced to continually pay for upgrades, as the package is upgraded free of charge
  • the system is constantly improving, as thousand of people work on Drupal all the time, and share their developments back to the wider community
  • Drupal grows with your needs
  • ease of integration with other systems and the ability to develop custom modules to meet your needs
  • you are not locked into a contract with a particular vendor

Netuxo: Drupal experts

Netuxo has several years - experience in this field and has written and contributed modules back to the wider Drupal community. We have used Drupal as the foundation for sites owned by NGO clients including Quaker Peace and Social Witness, International Women in Black Network, Discrimination Law Association, War Resisters' International, plus a number of commercial clients who use their websites to perform very specific tasks - including for income generation.

Drupal can be used in many ways to create both public and private web-based resources. To give some examples, we have implemented Drupal as an on-line document repository; as a shop front website - to display the conceptual wares of various NGOs; for performing specific tasks (eg audio processing; or providing a front end for data mining; handling translation queues); as a public or private knowledge-base; or as a public or private space for sharing community resources.
