Creative agencies and designers find themselves in a tough spot when their clients need more than what they can build using off-the-shelf tools and hosting. That’s where Openmotive comes in.

Openmotive has provided development and hosting services to many freelancers, boutiques, and creative agencies. The process we have developed allows us to take your concepts and designs and turn them into working solutions very quickly. Our proven methods are based on modular development and complete client/agency control over content management.

How do we work together?

All of our projects are managed via our online project extranet. This helps team members and clients stay involved in the process by keeping all project details, schedules, files, and communication in one place. If you are familiar with popular online team collaboration tools like Basecamp or ActiveCollab, you’ll feel right at home.

Design-saavy Developers

Building a website without completely understanding the visual intent of the designer is a recipe for mediocrity. Our team makes a point to work directly with your creative team to make sure that your vision is executed flawlessly, across all modern platforms.

Headache-free process

We work the way you want us to... whether you need us to stay behind the scenes or to be right up front with you and your client. We will involve you in every step of the process, so your client’s needs are served without a hitch.

Happy Clients - thinking beyond launch

We take your client's websites beyond the static world. You and your client will have the tools to manage and adjust the site with ease. And because we utilize the popular and powerful ExpressionEngine platform, all functionality is manageable from a single interface.

Leveraging the separation of content and design afforded by ExpressionEngine, future additions, feature upgrades, and even redesigns become a much simpler process. Your clients will be happy to know that post-launch maintenance costs will be reduced considerably, and they will be provided with many options for future growth.

How are these sites hosted?

While we usually manage the hosting for our clients, we can easily modify our deployment process to host your client’s site elsewhere. As long as the hosting supports MYSQL 5, PHP 5, and can be accessed via SFTP, we&rsquop;re in business.

Is it really that simple?

Generally, yes. If you’ve got a project that you need development help on, especially if your client is begging for more control of their site’s content and is anticipating a surge in growth , drop us a line and we’ll be glad to talk to you about it.
