Please note this document is not necessarily a final draft and if you would require further functionality not included below will need clarification and further discussion.
All our websites are tailored for ease of navigation & mobile optimisation.
The main goal of the website will be to host forms that engineers can login to access.
We will implement a live search function to make it super easy for users to find the correct form. This will filter the different forms instantly as the user types into the search field.
Once they have found the form they need, they can click on it and enter the details into the webform on their mobile device.
Webflow websites are hosted on AWS which is super fast allowing us to optimise even an image heavy site to load in under 1 second.
To achieve these kinds of load speeds using WordPress or Drupal is a lot of work and requires a lot of caching which can lead to functionality bugs.
As the engineers will be filling in the forms on mobile devices, site load speed and ease of use across all devices (desktop, tablet and mobile) is a priority, so we propose to build the site using Webflow.
The reasons for this choice are:
The website will host 20 (or so) forms which can be searched for easily. An engineer will submit these forms on completion of a job and the website will send the from as an email with a PDF attachment containing all the details as filled in by the engineer on their mobile device.
We suggest using Jotforms or Formstack to achieve this functionality. Both programs can talk to other apps so we can send the data to a CRM or other system as well potentially as part of another phase of development.
See their pricing pages for the monthly costs associated with these tools.
Based on our experience we have found that it is mutually advantageous to handle each project in logical working/billing phases. 50% Deposit* & 50% paid before website goes live.

We specialise in quality interactive and content-driven websites. We generally develop our websites using one of the popular open source Content Management Systems WordPress / Drupal but we have recently moved to the game changing Web Design tool Webflow.
In 2007 we won two Golden Spider Awards including the coveted Grand Prix Award for the Cully & Sully website. This site is built using the Drupal CMS. It has a forum, blogs, a cookbook where users can save their favourite recipes and a product browser built into the homepage as well as a lot of other features.
In 2010 our project Chef-Factor, an online competition that we devised and built-in conjunction with Cully & Sully, was nominated in the All Ireland Marketing Awards in the e-Marketing section - showing that we can compete with the biggest agencies in the country.
Chef-Factor returned in 2011 when it won our third national award in the ‘Best Micro-Site' category of the Irish Web Design Awards. We had 9 other websites nominated for awards at the 2011 Irish Web Awards, 5 of which made the final short-lists, including Pride Design which made the final short-list for national ‘Web Agency of the Year' 2011.
In 2012 our website for Cork Opera House won the Best Arts Website at the Irish Web Awards.
Our website TheCorkNews.ie was announced as the winner of the category ‘Best Online Publication' at the Irish Web Awards 2014, beating national publications like The Irish Times, The Irish Examiner and The Irish Independent. Pride Design again made the short-list for national ‘Web Agency of the Year' 2014.
Biabeauty.com was announced as a Semi-Finalist in the Irish Web Awards 2015 & Irish Web Awards 2016 for both the Best SME Website and Most Beautiful Website categories.
MagicVacations.ie was recently announced Best Website at the 2017 Travel Awards.
Our recent Website for Lisnavagh House won the Best tourism website at the recent Carlow Chamber of commerce awards 2021.
