Direct Connect, a premier service provider facilitating seamless utility setups and moving services, embarked on a digital rejuvenation journey with Revium. Recognising the need to modernise their consumer-facing website, Direct Connect partnered with Revium to overhaul their online presence, leveraging Revium’s expertise in delivering cutting-edge, bespoke digital solutions.
The challenges Direct Connect faced were multi-faceted. Their existing consumer website was noticeably dated, both in aesthetics and functionality. The underlying Content Management System (CMS) was nearing the end of its life, lacking a viable upgrade path and making the development of new pages a cumbersome affair. Moreover, the reliance on outdated APIs, coupled with a diminishing pool of knowledgeable staff, added layers of complexity to maintaining and updating their digital platform.
Revium’s commitment to provide frank and fearless advice, we proposed a bold yet strategic overhaul.
Revium’s prior successes with Storyblok, a state-of-the-art headless CMS, steered our recommendation to adopt it as the foundational technology for Direct Connect's new website.
Storyblok's componentised approach not only promised an intuitive user experience for editors but also eliminated the need for technical intervention for content creation and layout design.
Understanding the importance of performance and security, Revium utilised an approach that generates the website's pages in static HTML. This approach ensured rapid page loading times while enhancing the site's security posture.
The transition to Azure Static Web Apps further complemented this strategy, offering a robust, scalable infrastructure that seamlessly integrates with Storyblok.
The transformation of Direct Connect's digital platform marks a significant milestone in their journey towards providing an unmatched user experience.
The adoption of modern, flexible APIs has resulted in a more secure, stable, and efficient online ecosystem.
The marketing team now enjoys unparalleled agility, capable of deploying new campaign landing pages within hours, a testament to the flexibility afforded by Storyblok.
The shift to a headless CMS model has dramatically streamlined content management and API integration processes. This modernized approach allows for quicker updates and the ability to release individual components of work efficiently, leveraging advanced pipeline and branch strategies.
Direct Connect's digital transformation journey, facilitated by Revium, exemplifies our commitment to delivering quality, innovative solutions that empower our clients to better serve their customers.
Revium’s expertise in leveraging cutting-edge technologies like Storyblok and Azure Static Web Apps, has helped Direct Connect not only meet but exceed their digital transformation goals, setting a new benchmark for excellence in the utility services sector.
