SharePoint Case Studies

Is your SharePoint site stuck with “out of the box” dullness?

PixelMill offers complete SharePoint branding and design services to take your site from uninspiring to uniquely branded. Whether your site needs just a branding header update, custom page layouts and web parts, or complete work flow and information architecture customization, PixelMill can implement the improvements you need to be effective.

Below are a few case studies from our satisfied clients.

Fortune 100 Company

A very large multi-national corporation had experienced delays and problems working with their third-party vendor to consistently apply strict branding requirements across their SharePoint systems in multiple countries and languages.

PixelMill was called in to replace the ineffective vendor and work side-by-side with the company managers to implement a complete UI overhaul to their SharePoint installation. The project encompassed multiple months of work including on-site visits.

Multiple sites, multiple languages

A large pharmaceutical company engaged PixelMill to brand their SharePoint intranet to be consistent with their external customer-facing websites. The project was so successful that internal referrals led to additional projects with foreign subsidiaries of the corporation, with support for multiple languages.

The resultant custom user interface design allowed more efficient navigation through the client's SharePoint intranet, improving employee adoption and access of the corporate intranet.

Cost effective branding

A Fortune 1000 public company in the hardware manufacturing industry engaged PixelMill multiple times to integrate their branding into out-of-the-box SharePoint intranet sites.

The custom solution provided by PixelMill saved the client large expenses over alternative technologies considered for the new intranet. The final invoice came in less than originally projected due to intelligent engineering decisions that allowed for use of built-in SharePoint components instead of custom web parts.

Customizing an existing SharePoint template

A large medical center bought a SharePoint template from a popular template vendor but couldn’t make it work. After much discussion PixelMill agreed to customize the existing template to the client's needs. PixelMill added the corporate branding on top of this complex template while preserving the functionality.

When most other SharePoint design companies would have required starting over from scratch, PixelMill devised a way to work with the client's prior decisions and limitations, yet still achieve the desired outcome. Now everyone in the organization can make use of the consistently branded user interface on the client's SharePoint intranet.

Template conversion from another platform

A small business found a template they liked in the PixelMill template store but it was for a different platform (not SharePoint). At the client's request, PixelMill converted the template to SharePoint 2007 for a very reasonable fee. The request only took the PixelMill team a couple of days and the client was able to install the look and feel they wanted in SharePoint 2007.
