Elevate Your Brand With Drupal 9

If you haven't already started thinking and planning for your upgrade to Drupal 9 now is the time.

Whether you're migrating from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 or upgrading from Drupal 8 or even migrating from a completely different CMS to Drupal 9, Thinkbean's Drupal experts will ensure that the process is as seamless and efficient as possible so that you can enjoy all the benefits, features and scalability of Drupal 9 as quickly as possible.

It's important to note...Drupal 8 End of Life is right around the corner in November, 2021. And while Drupal 7 End of Life has been extended until November 2022 we'd like to remind you that it's also been around since 2011. Which means you're working on top of an extremely dated feature set, and unlike most things in life, dated technology is not cool or vintage, it simply doesn't function as well.

We've Been Doing This Thing Since Drupal 5

Thinkbean's team of Drupal engineers and Drupal strategists have been industry experts since the early 2000's. And while many development shops service multiple platforms. We don’t. We believe Drupal projects require Drupal experts if they are to be completed properly, efficiently and successfully.

As a company we strive to build applications that do something, not just say something. We enjoy taking an integral role in working with our clients to collaborate and formulate clear and concise business goals to ensure they reach their goals. 

We’re very proud of the fact Thinkbean is always the last stop for our clients. Never do our clients have to go to other Drupal development shops to get the service they need. This alone is what truly sets us apart.
