Interview with Denver DataMan

What does your shop do and how do you work with Drupal?

Denver DataMan uses Drupal in order to build applications for our clients that make them more efficient. We also build websites for companies that want to be able to manage their own content and become more self-sufficient. Our training services differentiate us from many of our competitors and this is what keeps our clients coming back.

Our Drupal training services are focused on the features that each client needs and on the specific installation that each client has. We have done training on stock Drupal installations, custom installations and custom modules. We work with our clients to understand their workflows and often help them to smooth the edges of their existing Drupal sties to be more usable.

Interview with CMS Website Services

What does your shop do and how do you work with Drupal?

CMS Quick Start creates advanced Drupal themes and Turn-Key Drupal website packages that you can use to launch attractive, end user ready Drupal sites in minutes. Each package comes with a premium theme, Drupal core and contributed modules, and includes an installer that automatically configures your site with useful functionality upon installation. The result: you save time and money and can focus on adding your content instead of designing and building a new Drupal site from scratch.

Interview with Face The State

What does your shop do and how do you work with Drupal

Face The State produces investigative reporting covering state and local politics in Colorado. Our site has been Drupal-powered since we began, and we upgraded to D6 this spring. It's a powerful CMS that allows us to easily roll out new features while keeping most IT tasks in-house.

How did you first get involved in Drupal development?

A consultant identified Drupal as the best CMS for our needs when our site first launched; in the last 3 years we've been able to do more and more of our own development by leveraging CCK, views and content templates. Up next is integrating more of our back-end tasks through bootstrapping and drush.
