Drupal has a reputation for being hard-to-manage compared to other Content Management Systems. At Droptica, however, we believe that it makes up for it with its incredible versatility and flexibility. The following ten Drupal websites are the best examples of this! 1.

In Droptica, the development team works closely with the designer. Close cooperation and unrestricted contact allow building websites that not only are visually attractive and perfected in terms of UX and UI, but also perfected in terms of programming.

After implementing scrum for Droptica's Drupal developers, we observed outstanding results in terms of the quality of our projects. In our opinion, scrum not only helps with maintaining quality – it simply enforces it. How does it do it? It puts emphasis on testing as early as possible. Writing good code that can be developed becomes a necessity. It supports automatic testing and automation of the development process. It reduces unnecessary costs and increases business flexibility.

At Droptica, remote work is something ordinary. From the very first day, we had two offices in Wrocław and Gdańsk. Recently, we also opened our third office in Rzeszów. Every day, developers, testers, graphic designers and other specialists work together in each of these locations. In addition, 90% of our clients come from abroad, like in the case of most software houses. Throughout several years, we have developed methods of effective and efficient cooperation in a dispersed team.

Droptica helps clients from all over the world to complete and implement their projects. Each of these clients has already developed their way of working. Everyone is different. In this article, I have collected the most common ways and systems of cooperation between Droptica and our clients. Why do we work a little differently with every client? We are Agile. We always want to maximise the results of our work.

Drupal is fantastic for all sorts of websites and applications. Drupal excels especially at large, complex content projects. If you know what you are doing, you can often cut development time substantially compared to other tools made for the same purpose.  Drupal's versatility, however, is a 2-edged sword. With great flexibility, extensive API and an abundance of modules created by the community, it takes a long time to get up to speed.

We recently wrote about  why SCRUM improves software development quality and why remote scrum teams are often a good choice.  Today we will discuss a very important part of scrum which is often neglected, what leads to reduced preformance, delays and mistakes - Sprint Retrospective.  What is Sprint Retrospective? This is one of the meetings in the SCRUM methodology. The meeting takes place on a regular basis, at the end of each sprint.

The deadline is today. A remote development team have worked for several weeks on your software. You obtain the long-awaited access to the system. You check it and you are not satisfied with the achieved results. All that was needed to avoid this problem is a team with experience in technology and working using SCRUM. What is SCRUM Wikipedia defines SCRUM as an agile framework for managing work. It is an approach used in many companies to develop software.

Quality is one of the principles that we uphold at Droptica. We want to create the best software, in line with our clients’ requirements - efficient, error-free and cost-effective. In this post, I am going to tell you about one of the most crucial factors impacting the quality of the software we develop - automation of the software development process. We are enthusiastic supporters of automation.

To create a big, frequently updated website, you need more than just skilled editors. A solid technological foundation is also a must.  If you have a hard time choosing from the ocean of possibilities, Drupal - a versatile system of CMF-class comes to your rescue.  When you’re building an advanced website, you can choose from among many technologies.
