Solution
We Migrated Crossley & Webb from their old Word Press CMS and still kept all the functionality. Document and tag handling, profile and user management, business content and image management are a few examples of the features.
The final result comprises of a full-house cloud based CMS and client facing sites, a revamped car site and brand new (real-time) auction site. These products grab hold of all users attention and keep them coming back for more.
Technology
A tailor made Django Wagtail CMS seemed an obvious choice for reliability and customization. Giving Crossley & Webb the Lamborghini in CMS was our driving force.
