Drupal is open-source software distributed under the GPL (“GNU General Public License”) and is maintained and developed by a community of thousands of users and developers. If you like what Drupal promises for you, please work with us to expand and refine Drupal to suit your specific needs.

People are naturally attracted to products that work, and Drupal works well. The other key to this is the fact that Drupal is ‘FREE’. Other contributing factors are Drupal’s simplicity, even on a technical level. It’s a simple package of software with all the common website functionality included, off the shelf. This dramatically decreases the time it takes to develop sophisticated websites, saving our customers time and money. Another aspect of Drupal which is very advantageous is the community surrounding the product. There is a diverse group of developers in a wide variety of industries that contribute modules to Drupal. At last count the community consisted of 14,000 web developers and is continually growing. If you have a need for specific functionality on your site, there is likely to be a module for it. If what you require is not available from the Drupal community, CTI are very experienced in the creation of custom Drupal modules.
