Journey

The Journey of Klizer with Arlon itself is rewarding. The way this client came to us was quite interesting! As you know, we have a great relationship with PDC Healthcare and have been working with them for many years now. We were referred to Arlon Graphics by an ex-employee of PDC, who moved to this group. Arlon was looking for a service provider for his new company and we are glad that the first thought that popped into his mind was Klizer. Reiterating the fact that it was “rewarding”, because we are glad that we were able to build the trust and fulfill our client requirements for them to reach out to us again and again.

Our work

We provided comprehensive maintenance and feature updates across their platforms, including Expression Engine and WordPress. Our routine development efforts focused on regularly implementing new features and updates, ensuring their software was always current. We conducted thorough security audits to identify and resolve potential vulnerabilities, and performed platform and server upgrades to enhance performance and security. Specific updates included fixing Bootstrap and JQuery vulnerabilities, improving Content Security Policy configurations, upgrading WordPress plugins, resolving mixed content issues, and patching Apache server vulnerabilities.

Challenges

One major challenge was that the Expression Engine platform was on a very old version, which posed a significant security threat. Upgrading from version 3.5.10 to 6.4.13 caused conflicts with many existing features and add-ons. Even with the latest add-ons, we encountered issues that required extensive troubleshooting and customization to resolve.

Integration

We integrated HubSpot into Arlon Graphics’ systems to improve their marketing and customer relationship management. This involved setting up and configuring HubSpot to work smoothly with their existing platforms, ensuring seamless data flow and functionality.
