About United Bank

They offer competitive products, technology, and rates with their services at a high level of competency and service, making them a top choice for any of their localities.
The business challenge
United Bank’s previous web framework was growing dated and more difficult to manage between switching hands, changes made over time, and the changing webspace environment having conflicts with the older structural code of the site. Alongside a facelift to the presentation of the site, United Bank wanted to see an improved and simplified admin experience on the backend when making website edits.
What we did
Working with select individuals from United Bank, Imagi-tech would prepare samples from different suitable web CMSs for United Bank to review and select based on their criteria. Once a CMS was chosen, Imagi-tech would proceed to plan how to execute a rebuild of the United Bank website from scratch. Consistency, simplicity, and straightforward direction would be keystone to any solutions proposed and executed. Copy and changes would be collected from United Bank and used to execute the rewrite of the website. Following go live, Imagi-tech will continue to support and educate on the use and maintenance of the new website.
What happened
Maintaining close communication with the client, Imagi-tech built a new website for United Bank from the ground up, intended to accommodate future growth while making content management simpler than it had ever been before. Through the proper combination of knowledge, code, and theming, a brand-new look and feel was brought to life for United Bank’s web presence. Support was provided throughout and following the go-live process on United Bank’s secure platform, and Imagi-tech continues to consult, maintain, and collaborate with United Bank on their website needs.
