Aihe: Exove, In English, eZ Publish | Lisää kommentti »Our customer, Eazybreak, received yesterday the Innofinland 2011 award. The award has been established 1994 and is granted annually. The President of Finland Tarja Halonen acts as the patron of the project.
The theme for Innofinland 2011 is “Intelligent systems and services – a better functioning world”, and Eazybreak fits the bill very well. It is a new eco-system to manage all kind of fringe benefit paper vouchers by a digital IT-platform. Eazybreak will bring the payment itself to your mobile. This will reduce the manual work and cost dramatically for all the players in the value chain – employers, employees and service providers.
“We are very proud to win this highly valued Award after one year of commercial activity. To make innovations a commercial success requires brave and open-minded customers, well functioning domestic finance market and skilled partners. This is the right way to ensure that the innovative companies remain in Finnish ownership and can expand globally” says Jari Kivinen, CEO of Eazybreak Ltd.
Congratulations to Jari, Kai, Teija, Minna, and the rest of Eazybreak team!

Aihe: Drupal, Exove, In English | Lisää kommentti »We have been working for several years with high-performance Drupal sites with a lot of authenticated users. Now we have packaged our experience into an advanced Drupal module, readily available for everyone at Drupal.org.
The name of the module is Cache Control and it is intended for integrating your site with the Varnish HTTP accelarator (and other external HTTP caches) in a fashion that not only allows for caching pageloads for anonymous users but also for authenticated users. It is a novel approach to increasing Drupal performance.

Our general ratings stayed at the same excellent level compared to last year, and a huge majority (~85%) of respondents are satisfied or very satisfied with our services and us. Our price / quality ratio is also seen good or excellent by more than 70% of respondents, and less than 10% think that it is poor or bad. Rest think that we are on par with everyone else. Our ability to keep the fixed budgets in all projects throughout our history shows in the answers.
Our services were rated mostly excellent (~25%) or good (~60%), but also average (~10%) or poor or even bad (about 5% combined). We have approximately kept the scores compared to the last year.
Quality and understanding clients’ needs were regarded very high, around 75-90% good or excellent. There were minor slide in the excellent numbers compared to the last year. As earlier, clients like our staff, and we are seen both friendly and professional.
More than 65% of you think that we are better than our competition, another 30% don’t see differences, and around 5% feel that we are doing worse.
Around 90% of you would buy again from us (of those about 20% definitely). These numbers took a minor hit compared to the last year but they we are still pretty proud of them. They continue our tradition of high customer satisfaction throughout the history of the company.
30% of our clients have already recommended us (thanks!), around 20% would definitely recommend, another 35% would recommend, and the remaining 15% are not willing to recommend us. All in all more than 85% of our clients would recommend us, which is a very good result.
Clients value our professionalism, reliability, and flexibility. We are also regarded as innovative, creative, friendly, honest, passionate, and ambitious. Thank you for these kind words.
If you feel that we could be a good — flexible, friendly, and professional — partner for you, get in touch with Janne Kalliola, +358 40 558 1796 or janne@exove.com.

The system has been in use for a few weeks at demokratia.hel.fi (in Finnish only, English summary), and yesterday there was a first open meeting (in Finnish, includes video) that citizens could participate in by being present at the town hall, through the site, or by watching the event through cable-TV. For the meeting, we implemented a real-time chat support in the system, and it was used extensively.
Speaking of the system, it is based on Drupal 7 extended with a number of contrib modules, a city of Helsinki look’n'feel template, and a couple of site specific custom modules.
