Managing your website

Netactive specialises in fully service website development using the very best Open Source development tools to achieve almost any requirement you might have.  Website development has gone through huge changes over the last 10 years especially since there is now access to more sophisticated software that can deliver far more for less dollar.

Getting you business online can be achieved using many different Open Source software communities and developers, which provides you with any number of resources. So what does that mean - no lock in and, since there is huge developer community, excellent support and ongoing development, lower cost of entry and lower ongoing costs amongst others.

So what is Open Source? Check out the Wikipedia page here for more detail. 

Here at Netactive we have been working wth Open Source software for the last 8 years and with Drupal (see below why we chose to specialise in Drupal) for last 4 years.

We use Drupal Open Source Content Management System that provides a sophisticated framework for your website catering for a wide range of options.  We chose this system for good reason – it is widely used by some very high profile organisations for their web presense.

This content management system has a proven track record and will provide you with the best tool with which to keep your website current and up to date, it allows any one of your staff members to update the site including limiting their capability by allocating access rights to the areas they can update.

"In January, the Drupal project popped the champagne on Drupal 7, a top-to-bottom overhaul that updated the widgetry to handle new innovations from the evolution of HTML5. WYSIWYG editors are simpler to use. Administration menus float above the content. All of the blocks are now more powerful and more secure. Many of the features that were cobbled on with modules are now baked into the project."
