From Challenge to Solution

Before partnering with Echidna, STI faced challenges in content management and customer engagement. Their in-house CMS was complex, requiring developer resources for updates and lacking integration with other internal systems. This bottleneck not only delayed content updates but also hindered STI's ability to effectively engage with their customers online.

Echidna's comprehensive solution streamlined product updates, enabled independent content management, and dramatically reduced customer engagement time. The introduction of an intelligent search system and product comparison tools directly addressed customer needs, making it easier for them to find the right solutions. As STI continues to lead in fire protection solutions, their enhanced digital platform stands as a testament to their commitment to excellence and customer service.

Transforming Customer Experience

By collaborating with the STI team, Echidna was able to improve the overall customer experience and work management processes. The implementation of HubSpot CMS, coupled with a fantastic UX redesign, increased traffic, and energized engagement proves to be the perfect recipe for our digital success.
