Introduction

MyDailyMoment found OGO Sense via a Google search. After contacting multiple vendors, MyDailyMoment chose OGO Sense for their overall competence and specialization in Joomla CMS.

Problem

MyDailyMoment had a Joomla 1.0 site and they needed to upgrade to Joomla 1.5 (a significant upgrade) and during that process redesign their website. In addition to needing to upgrade the software for security reasons, their current website was missing useful features, like letting the editorial team preview an article before it was published on the website to check for layout errors. MyDailyMoment had a designer and ideas for webpage layouts but not the technical knowhow to execute.

Solution

OGO Sense took the time to analyze MyDailyMoment’s needs and recommended solutions, such as making improvements so the editorial team could insert content without having to worry about layout. OGO Sense staff is sophisticated in implementing custom designs and make recommendations for improvement… and were able to stick within a few pixels of what MyDailyMoment’s designer had laid out.

For the website visitors, OGO Sense created features that were fun and easy to use, like a custom recipe search and quiz software from a third party database that matched the rest of the website (so no one can tell it’s different software).

Results

Following their website redesign, MyDailyMoment became an INC 500 website in 2011 and remain in the INC 5000 business list. MyDailyMoment staff and website visitors loved the resulting website because it loaded fast and served ads well. MyDailyMoment went from generating $11.1M in 2011 to $22.1 M in revenue in 2013. They are currently working with OGO Sense to release the second version of their website (for release in 2015).

Client Testimonial

“I am happy to provide references for OGO Sense.
  • We've worked with them since 2008. We had reviewed several Joomla shops and Ogo was the one with the highest marks.
  • They have been very easy to work with. The whole staff can communicate in perfect English. We mostly interact through the ticket system (bulletin board) but have had a few conference calls on occasions. Deliveries have been on time, of course there are always some last minute unforeseen issues that can delay deliveries, but they are pretty good in keeping us up to date on those occasions
  • They have developped our site MyDailymoment.com from scratch, based on comps we had provided. They have performed two site upgrades (functionality upgrade and Joomla upgrade). They do bug fixes, new features, troubleshooting. We are going to contract them for another site upgrade this year”
