ReadyPortal Selected Over Joomla Open Source Software To Build Global Portal on Retail Banking

PR Log (Press Release) – Aug 04, 2009 – ReadyPortal, a leading Web content management solution (CMS) platform for businesses, trade associations, and nonprofits, was selected by Global Bank Vision Consulting (GBVC) after efforts with open source software failed due to technical complexities. GBVC Inc., a practice providing world-class market intelligence on retail banking fast forwarded web development by selecting ReadyPortal to build a professional web site that serves as the central hub for its strategic intelligence and leadership.  

Taking 4 weeks from agreement to launch in June, 2009, the GBV site is fast becoming the financial industry’s gateway to in-depth market intelligence, strategic analysis and regular briefings for retail banking. CEO, Steven Audino, credits ReadyPortal’s business friendly CMS methodology for the company’s immediate market traction.  

“Simply put, ReadyPortal is phenomenal,” said Audino. “For value to cost, ReadyPortal is definitely the better choice for small medium businesses. The open source solutions we evaluated could not measure up.”

ReadyPortal was tested and reviewed against open source solutions for cost effectiveness, user experience, and ease of management. An initial Joomla-based site was abandoned after it became clear that content management and site administration was unmanageable without competent and ongoing technical support. Opting with ReadyPortal allows GBVC to concentrate on generating business instead of requiring an engineering team to build and manage the site.

ReadyPortal thumped comparable open source solutions on reliability, technical ease, browser compatibility and cost. Audino estimates at least a 30 percent cost savings with ReadyPortal. The GBVC site has generated client inquiries from 14 countries, captured 11,000 page views and over 600 unique visitors in a matter of weeks.
