Agilutions’ client wins AUDC award
Agilutions is proud to announce that our client, the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), was crowned “Best Web Site Using netFORUM Enterprise CMS” at the 2008 Avectra Users and Developers Conference. Recognizing the greatest innovation and creativity in building Web site look and feel, navigation and content using only the netFORUM Enterprise CMS tool, the award comes as a result of hard work and a commitment to developing a seamless, user-centric Web site.
While the CMS development was conducted and developed by AAHA, the ecommerce functionality developed by Agilutions for AAHA is a vital part of their Web site experience. To create an ecommerce functionality that was usable and useful from a trade association perspective, Agilutions worked diligently to address both an internal login that would enable employees with privileges to act on behalf of the hospital and an external login that would allow users to easily apply for a membership and to pay fees in a secure online environment.
Since access to the Web site required an individual login for each user, Agilutions tailored the shopping cart to accommodate multiple usernames and passwords easily and effectively. With Agilutions’ expertise in software implementation, the Web site was constructed so each independent feature fit into a larger framework. Implementation also included imparting important information to AAHA that would prove invaluable down the road as their Web site expands and evolves.
“The Agilutions team brought the technical expertise needed to not only implement the software, but also played an integral part in mentoring AAHA to be self-sufficient. The readiness and ability to transfer knowledge quickly and effectively to our team proved to be key in not only getting us up to speed, but more importantly giving us a framework for future success,” said Associate Director of Information Technology, Ryan Latham.
The focus on helping clients realize success on multiple levels continues to set Agilutions apart from the competition. Agilutions was extremely honored to play an integral role in developing the ecommerce functionality for AAHA and looks forward to applying a similar methodology to help more associations achieve their goals.
