The COMET Group is a global-leading Swiss technology firm. For nearly 70 years, they have been developing and producing innovative high-tech components and systems based on x-ray, radio frequency, and ebeam technology. The result of this project is a fusion of five different websites of multiple offers and target groups. They were looking for a platform with which they were able to meet the different requirements. Kentico Widgets offer a flexibility in presenting companies, products, and applications. Talent-management software, Umantis, was integrated into the website for the automated presentation of job advertisements. Tensid has been introduced in order to support the digital corporate communication.

Australian Red Cross saves lives and supports people before and after disasters strike. The goal of the website redesign was to enable editors to have full control over their content and display, and give them the ability to build and manage their pages and campaigns quickly and easily. Kentico’s ability to build pages from templates using Content Widgets has given Red Cross the freedom they need to create pages the way they want, with the confidence that the whole site will remain easy to use and accessibly compliant. At the moment, early A/B testing and Personalization tests are being investigated for particular sites.

In the first 60 days after the site launched, the website has seen a 99% increase in overall traffic, 432% increase in organic traffic, and 43% increase in page views.

Refactored is in the first of a multi-phased project for Rio Tinto, helping to transform their US Borax website (and market sites) into Kentico-EMS based, purpose-driven, content-oriented websites. They were brought in to work with Rio Tinto this spring to begin the effort with an initial focus on their Agriculture market website, which represents a large portion of the revenues for Borax. Refactored updated the website architecture, design, content, and video, and implemented Kentico EMS functionalities—leveraged community registration, newsletter/blog subscriptions, personalization, and localized content (English and Portuguese today and soon Spanish and Asian languages), to bring users closer to the brand.
