Do you know Drupal?

  • Not yet: For us it's a benchmark for feasibility so it's maybe at least an option for you to orientate.
  • Yes but bad experience with Drupal, Symfony, or PHP itself? We really like to talk with you!
  • By ourself we are very focused on Drupal but we really like competition especially regarding low-code flexibility.

Why ...

  • Free and open source: To be independent from vendors and licence fees.
  • Drupal: Realise simple CMS functionality and complex requirements the efficient and safe way.
  • Nodegard: Because we combine our vast experience with technical creativity.

CMS taken further: We develop „Communication Management Systems“

Drupal ist der Hammer (Drupal is awesome)

I've been told that I consider 'Drupal as a hammer' and therefore I see every task as a nail. But Drupal has always been a machine for me to create tools for individual requirements. Starting with combing very flexible standard 'interlocking bricks' (modules), you can create a lot without the need of custom code. With its foundational API concept, gaps can be filled efficiently and precisely in the implementation of an individual concept (low-code). In addition to various aspects of social cohesion, the Drupal Community provides clear standards for the stability and security of the 'interlocking bricks'. In this logic Drupal can be seen as a '3D printer for interlocking bricks of steel'. So I think 'Hammer' is a quite appropriate expression of enthusiasm.

Automatic CMS Dev/Test Environments via Shared Hosts:

  • Our efficient DevOps way of CD/CI for CMS without container overhead
  • Resource-saving, inexpensive, and fast through shared hosting configurations inside separated container or server.
  • Identical environment for dev and test (review) systems (controlled by gitlab). Identical productive Environment is also possible.
  • Usage of always up-to-date productive backups for easier bug fixing and feature testing.
  • Server based dev environment. Easier to implement data protection requirements and easier to use for developers even beginners.
  • Complete dev/test web access protection (nginx auth_request) with password and/or  SSO (single sign on). SSO is included in nodegard.net sub domains. Individual domain solutions are possible.
