Project Summary

A nonprofit organization hired Five Jars to redesign a legacy website on a proprietary CMS and rebuild it on Drupal, incorporating over 40 microsites and responsive, flexible designs. The vendor led design reviews using Adobe XD, coordinated work via Basecamp and Slack, and launched phase 1 despite scope growth. Analytics show session duration increased and bounce rate decreased, and users reported the site is cleaner and easier to navigate.

Key Challenges

  • Integrating over 40 microsites and implementing a responsive, flexible design

Project Solution

After a kickoff and design-review process using Adobe XD, the vendor implemented a Drupal-based site and migrated content including over 40 microsites.
