The Experience Building in Zesty.io
Site Created from Ground Up in Weeks, Not Months
Rebar was tasked with building Singlife’s new website marketing their global expansion to serve the Philippines. Designed from the ground up and starting from scratch with a new CMS, the agency was able to deliver a brand new site ahead of schedule.
“It took us one month to complete the project, and it was completed as planned and projected," says Brian Nilayan, Head of Business Development at Rebar Solutions.
“The learning curve was surprisingly easy. The key positives that we can say for Zesty.io are that the platform is relatively easy to learn, flexible, scalable, and faster to develop on. We were able to meet our deadlines early to allow for extra review and have a seamless launch.”
