The challenge
Novanet faced a common issue: the need to modernize their website. Senior Consultant, Ingve Vikan Sund, explained that the visual profile, including the logo and colors, required an upgrade, and they needed a completely new technical foundation. Additionally, Novanet sought a more efficient and user-friendly content management system (CMS) to support this updated website, while also showcasing their team of expert developers. Ensuring that their employees' skills and information were displayed prominently, without requiring dual maintenance, was a key priority.
Needed to create a website that was easily updatable
Wanted to present employee data easily
Why Flowcase
Novanet was already using Flowcase as their platform for managing employee resumes and skillsets. Given the importance of showcasing their talented team on the new website, they chose Flowcase because it allowed them to avoid managing the same data in two separate systems. Flowcase’s API offered an easy solution to pull employee information directly into their website through a custom integration, reducing the need for manual updates and ensuring accuracy.
"Novanet is a long time Flowcase user, and used Flowcase and its API to fetch updated employee data for their new website."
How Flowcase helped
Flowcase played a pivotal role in helping Novanet achieve their goals. By integrating the Flowcase API with their chosen CMS, sanity.io, Novanet ensured that employee data could flow seamlessly from Flowcase to their website. This custom integration allowed anyone with access to the CMS to update the site with the latest information from Flowcase at the click of a button. The well-documented and reliable REST API from Flowcase ensured that the process was straightforward and fully supported, with access to best practices, error testing, and verification. Flowcase provided test environments to guarantee the smooth implementation of the integration.
Thanks to Flowcase, Novanet now enjoys a flexible, visually appealing website that is simple to maintain. Updating content is effortless, and the company is thrilled with the outcome. The combination of Flowcase's API and modern web technologies has provided Novanet with a streamlined solution for keeping their team profiles up to date, enhancing their online presence.
