Frequently Asked Questions
What comes with the Drupal platform?
At initial setup, Drupal has the appearance of a basic website with the standard features you’d expect from a CMS. You’ll need a developer to help customize the design (theming) to fit your brand. There are thousands of free modules available that add capabilities and features, allowing your developer to mold Drupal into exactly what you need in a custom website.
Contact us to schedule an intro call and we’ll walk you through some of Drupal’s features and answer any questions you might have.
What training do you provide for Drupal websites?
Our client’s websites are custom to their unique needs. We always provide training and documentation to ensure our clients have what they need to successfully manage their website day in and day out.
We believe that knowledge is power which is why your technical project manager will provide one-on-one training and detailed reference guides so your team can feel confident when working with your new website. Schedule an intro call and we can discuss your project and whether Drupal is the right fit.
What can be migrated to a new Drupal website?
All of your website's content, data, customer accounts, and design can be migrated over to Drupal. How content is migrated will depend on the current website you wish to migrate away from. Sometimes this entails manually migrating page by page, in other cases, a faster migration via a plugin may programmatically move everything over automatically.
Learn more about how we approach Drupal migrations or schedule an intro call and we can discuss the logistics of migrating your website.
What can’t be migrated to Drupal and will need to be rebuilt?
There are some things that can’t be migrated directly into Drupal and will need to be reconstructed on your new website, including:
- Your design/theme
- Custom extensions
- Custom features
Bear Group is here to help your Drupal migration go smoothly. Schedule an intro call and we can discuss your project and whether Drupal is the right fit.
Is Drupal secure?
Drupal remains one of the most secure CMS platforms available today. Open source platforms, such as Drupal, are generally more secure — by allowing everyone to access the code, the number of developers working on a vulnerability will be much wider than on a proprietary platform. Read more about choosing a secure CMS platform or schedule an intro call and we’ll answer any questions you might have about Drupal.
How often does Drupal need to be upgraded?
Minor (feature) releases are scheduled approximately every six months. Smaller security updates may be more frequent. Drupal upgrades are only necessary when there is a critical security update. Otherwise, upgrades can be introduced at times when you are rolling out new features or other development projects for your website. Schedule an intro call and we can discuss Drupal upgrades in greater detail.
Our company has progressed so much. The time was right to have our website reflect the company we are today.
