Migrate a website to Drupal CMSBy Rapidsoft technologies

Why Drupal?

Drupal is the best choice for content-heavy websites. It is an open source CMS yet it gives freedom of managing large websites with an ease. You will not need to pay anything for obtaining the license of the software. All it will cost is the fees of the Drupal development company providing the services.

If your current website is on different CMS, it can easily be migrated to Drupal. Here, I am going to share three most vital tips that you should keep in mind while getting the website shifted to Drupal.

Ask the Developer about his migration plan

Migration from one technology to another is naturally filled with a lot of complexities. The Cost also depends on process being followed. Check what plan do Drupal developers have. You can ask following questions from the development company:

• How much time will migration take? • Who will lead the whole migration process? • Is investing in migration justifiable? • Will it affect the current state of website? • How early can you see the ROI on the migration

Perform an audit from organization perspective

Before you hire a Drupal web development company, you must know everything about your organization. Knowing everything will make the communication simple and also, save a lot of back and forth questions. Here are those things:

• Name all assets constituting your site• Name the parts being migrated from the current site• List the enhancement that will be added to the site’s design,

functioning, etc. • Does the new site need integration with legacy systems? • What efficiencies will come after the migration?

Do a technical inspection of site

You should engage your IT team long before the actual migration process will take place. Also involve the marketing team because they are the people who will actually interact with site and clients. The IT team needs to do following inspections.

• Make out the sort of repository the existing site uses for storing data

• Assess how the old site structures non-content data• List the tools that the other companies have used in

migration• If possible, talk other companies about required process and

minimum time for migration
