HIGHLY EVOLVING
Even for websites with very heavy traffic and a rich user experience, Drupal offers options to ensure that your website remains accessible. With a flexible and scalable design, websites with a daily load (like Weather.com) and websites with a peak load (like Grammy.com) can continue to function properly.
MOBILE-FIRST
Drupal has been configured with mobile as a priority and offers full support for responsive design patterns. This way, you can serve a wide target group, regardless of time, location or (mobile) device. In this way, you ensure a seamless user experience for customers and users.
RICH INTEGRATION OPTIONS
Drupal offers standard integration options for your back office, email, marketing automation or CRM. An API-first focus that is supported by both the development community and vendors offers many possibilities for integrating Drupal with traditional and modern backend applications. For example, content is separated from presentation, so that mobile applications, ERP systems and other applications can use the content offered by your website.
SECURITY
Drupal provides a proven and secure application infrastructure that can run robust, business-critical applications. A permanent team from the Drupal development community is constantly working on Drupal security in accordance with strict code standards. They continuously accept notification and timely security updates to ensure the security of websites and online applications built with Drupal.
EASY-TO-USE CONTENT EDITOR
Drupal provides essential tools for content creation and publishing, including a flexible WYSIWYG editor, a flexible roles and permissions system, and a workflow. Marketers, editors, web administrators and developers all use Drupal to meet the needs of their organization, so everyone has the right access to use Drupal for what they need.
A FLEXIBLE CONTENT STRUCTURE
With Drupal's intuitive content management environment, you can turn the most complex information architecture into flexible content structures. Content editors can use the tools that Drupal offers as standard for content creation, workflow and publishing. For example, rights and roles, menus and content views can be configured from the GUI. Drupal offers device-independent support for almost all common media types, including video and PDF.
MULTISITE
Drupal offers many possibilities to manage multiple websites with which business units, labels, countries and campaigns can run independently on a single platform. In this way, content can be published quickly and easily across multiple segments and the management burden is significantly reduced.
MULTILINGUALISM
Multilingual audiences that are part of a regional content strategy can be easily reached with Drupal. Specific content as well as entire websites can be managed quickly and easily in multiple languages. The content management interface can also be translated for use by local teams.
UNRESTRICTED BUSINESS TOOLS
Over the past decade, Drupal has become increasingly aligned with the needs of marketing departments with commercial and business objectives and measurable return on investment (ROI). While traditional CMS platforms often require organizations to adapt to the software, Drupal offers a flexible foundation that can accommodate the variety of requirements and desires without the organization having to adapt.
SOLID LAMP STACK
By default, Drupal uses the modern LAMP stack with Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP. Many organizations and agencies around the world leverage this robust stack to create fast, agile digital applications that allow them to grow with online ambitions and new developments.
CONTENT AS A SERVICE
Because content in Drupal is stored in a structured data model, content can be presented in any form and layout, responsive and flexible. Content can also connect to mobile applications and other applications via built-in REST services. With open source APIs available, Drupal can be connected to other data sources to exchange data, content or functionality with marketing tools and CRM systems. Because content is separate from presentation, it can be presented in any form, on any channel, in any format.
A LARGE COMMUNITY WITH TALENT AND EXPERIENCE
With open source software, you can use software that has been developed by other customers and projects. The international Drupal community shares experiences and ideas with its customers and (potential) users. This means that every Drupal professional has access to frequently used channels where the worldwide network of knowledge and experience can be consulted directly. Which vendor can say that?
