Our Goals
Big Fundraising Ideas partnered with us to achieve the following objectives:

Migrate the legacy Drupal 7 website to a scalable Drupal 10 and Drupal 11 platform.
02
Modernize the user interface and experience to drive higher engagement and conversions.
03

04

The Challenge
Big Fundraising Ideas operated on a legacy Drupal 7 website with limited flexibility and scalability. Slow performance, manual content updates, and missing modern features held back conversions, lead generation, and long-term growth.
Outdated Platform
The website was built on Drupal 7 with largely static pages, limiting modern capabilities and long-term support.
Manual Content Bottlenecks
Even minor updates required developer involvement, slowing campaign rollouts and limiting marketing team agility.
UI/UX & Conversion Gaps
Outdated design and weak product pages hurt user engagement, conversion rates, and overall site effectiveness.
Performance & SEO Issues
Slow page load times negatively impacted user experience and search rankings, reducing organic traffic.
Limited Lead Generation
Basic forms and no integrated systems made it difficult to capture and nurture leads effectively.

FAQ’s
1. Why should we migrate from Drupal 7 to Drupal 10?
Drupal 7 reached end-of-life, meaning no security updates or official support. Drupal 10 offers modern architecture, better performance, enhanced security, improved content management, and long-term scalability for your business.
2. How long does a Drupal 7 to Drupal 10 migration take?
Migration timelines vary based on site complexity, custom modules, and content volume. Typical migrations range from 8-16 weeks, including planning, migration, testing, and deployment phases.
3. Will our existing content and data be preserved during migration?
Yes, all content, user data, and configurations are carefully migrated. We use automated migration tools combined with manual verification to ensure data integrity and zero data loss throughout the process.
4. Can we upgrade directly to Drupal 11 instead of Drupal 10?
Yes, we can migrate directly to Drupal 11 for the latest features and longest support timeline. Drupal 11 builds on Drupal 10’s foundation with additional improvements and extended support through 2028.
