DESCRIPTION
Organizations no longer manage one or two websites. Every department has multiple sites - to collaborate with customers and partners, to launch products and marketing campaigns quickly, to deliver customer support and communicate with multiple audiences. However, this proliferation of microsites raises challenges. Drupal Gardens offers a scalable Drupal-as-a-Service platform tailored to the needs of enterprise customers who need to deploy and manage their library of microsites while complimenting their primary web properties.
