FAQs

What is Drupal used for?

Drupal is a free, open-source content management software (CMS) that can be used for websites and applications of all shapes and sizes.

It’s often the first choice CMS for large and complex websites, or sites linking to large databases and libraries. Alternatively, if your site is small at present but you have big plans, Drupal can scale according to your needs.

Drupal has lots of great features as standard, but it can also be customised with a vast range of modules to provide specific functionality. Whether you want a news site, blog, e-commerce store, social network or something else entirely, it’s just about combining the right modules. This means that Drupal can be used for almost any function you can imagine!

Is Drupal a good CMS?

Drupal is a great CMS. It has a track-record for being secure, reliable, powerful and highly-customisable – but don’t just take our word for it.

Drupal is trusted by thousands of organisations and websites, including eBay, Twitter, Nokia, BBC, Tesla, the Australian Government, NASA, The Economist, Harvard University, and even Lady Gaga! It’s estimated that it’s used by at least 2.3% of all websites worldwide.

What’s more, Drupal is an open source software, which means that anyone can download, use and share it. It’s completely free, with no Drupal licencing fees.

How does Drupal work?

Drupal works a bit like baking a cake. There are core modules which provide essential website functionality (the flour, sugar, butter and eggs). Then there’s an almost unlimited range of additional modules and themes (flavours, decorations etc) which can be used to customise your website – or cake.

Drupal uses a similar analogy on its website:

“The average content management system (CMS) is like a toy truck – specific assumptions have been made about how it will be used, and these assumptions are difficult to override. Drupal is designed to be the perfect content management solution for both simplicity and flexibility. Unlike other CMSs, Drupal isn’t a prefabricated toy truck, but rather a collection of wheels, windshields, axles, frames, etc, that a toy maker can easily assemble. With Drupal, a maker could create a toy truck, but she or he could just as easily create a toy airplane, submarine, or robot.”

Drupal is also an open source software, which means that anyone can download, use and customise it. The Drupal community is one of the largest open source communities, with more a million people working to build and update Drupal around the world.

What can you do with Drupal?

Drupal can be used for all kinds of websites and applications. The only limit is your imagination!

It’s a great choice for large and complex websites, but it’s also a flexible and scalable software for smaller sites too. Drupal can be used to build and customise a wide variety of sites from simple blogs to government information sites, major e-commerce stores (such as eBay), and social media platforms (like Twitter).

How to choose a Drupal agency that will bring your visualisation to life?

Choosing the right Drupal agency is key to turning your ideas into a successful website. Here’s what to look for:

Proven Drupal expertise: Make sure the agency has experience delivering Drupal projects similar to yours – check their portfolio, case studies and client testimonials.
Strong design and UX skills: A great agency will translate your vision into a visually appealing and user-friendly design that works across all devices.
Collaborative approach: Look for an agency that listens, asks questions, and involves you throughout the process – your input should shape the outcome.
Technical know-how: Beyond design, the agency should have deep technical understanding to build a fast, secure and scalable Drupal site tailored to your needs.
Ongoing support: The right partner doesn’t disappear after launch – they’ll provide training, maintenance and improvements as your site grows.

At Pedalo, we combine creative design with expert Drupal development to bring your ideas to life – on time, on budget, and with lasting impact.
