Soon website content will be accessed more via mobile devices than with personal computers. With Siteflex, you’re ready to go mobile.

Let the exper ts take care of keeping up. Being a par t of the Siteflex community means you don’t need a dedicated team of developers making sure your website keeps up with the latest trends and technologies. As the world moves fur ther into the mobile space, so does Siteflex.

Not only has the back-end Siteflex administration been constructed with mobile devices in mind - allowing you to create, update or even tweet about your website easily, anywhere - but multiple options exist for getting your front-end website mobile. Don’t just get mobile, get agile; create dedicated mobile templates to ensure all your most relevant website content is automatically pushed to mobile users, with no additional work from you.

The Forms module allows you to f lexibly customise your website’s Forms into online polling booths, surveys, community-driven notice boards, membership registration forms or keep it simple with a standard enquiry form. Whatever you choose, the Siteflex Forms module empowers you to keep the conversation f lowing in the right direction.
