Drupal Association blog: Showcasing Drupal Excellence: Refreshed Industry Pages and a Renewed Commitment

We've overhauled Drupal's industry landing pages to better showcase the real-world impact of Drupal across critical business sectors. These refreshed pages represent a new, more strategic approach to how we position Drupal for enterprise audiences.

These redesigned industry pages create focused spaces where prospects in specific industries can see Drupal solving problems they recognize-at the scale and complexity they need. Instead of generic CMS messaging, decision-makers in retail, healthcare, government, and other sectors now find pages that speak directly to their pain points, featuring case studies from organizations facing similar challenges.

What's Changed

Curated excellence
We are moving away from allowing agencies to book slots, to instead carefully selecting the best projects that demonstrate Drupal's capabilities. This means visitors see the most compelling case studies-recognized brands, innovative solutions, and clear business results that sell Drupal effectively.

Updated design and brand
The pages now reflect Drupal's updated brand and modern website design, presenting a professional, enterprise-grade appearance that matches the quality of the projects we showcase.

Industry-specific messaging
Each page features value propositions tailored to that industry's pain points, rather than generic CMS benefits. Retail pages talk about campaign velocity and Black Friday traffic. Healthcare pages address compliance and patient experiences. The messaging speaks directly to what matters in each sector.

Current Industry Coverage

The refreshed pages now cover:

  • Enterprise - Multi-brand governance and Fortune 500 scale
  • Government - Citizen services and public sector digital transformation
  • Education - Campus platforms and academic digital experiences
  • Nonprofit - Mission-driven organizations maximizing impact
  • Ecommerce - Commerce-driven digital experiences
  • Fintech - Financial services and secure digital banking
  • Healthcare - Patient experiences and healthcare digital transformation
  • Retail - Omnichannel retail and campaign velocity
  • Travel & Tourism - Destination marketing and travel experiences

How We Select Case Studies

To maintain quality and support the partners who support the Drupal project, we follow a clear selection process:

DCP exclusivity
Case studies featured on industry pages come exclusively from Drupal Certified Partners. These agencies support the Drupal project and allow us to maintain Drupal.org, create resources like these pages, and invest in the ecosystem. Featuring DCP work on these pages is one way we deliver value back to our partners.

Quality and credibility
We prioritize case studies that feature:

  • Well-known, trusted brands that prospects will recognize
  • Innovative approaches and technical sophistication
  • Clear business results and compelling transformation stories
  • Projects that best demonstrate Drupal's enterprise capabilities

Diversity and representation
Within each industry vertical, we aim for:

  • Geographic diversity (not all projects from one region)
  • A mix of project types and challenges
  • Different DCPs represented (avoiding concentration with one partner)
  • Variety in organization size and complexity

Regular review and updates
We review these pages quarterly to ensure they showcase the best current work. However, if an exceptional case study is posted to Drupal.org between reviews, we may add it immediately. This keeps the pages fresh while ensuring we never miss an opportunity to showcase outstanding work.

Also New: Monthly "Best of Drupal" Social Campaigns

The refreshed industry pages are part of a broader commitment to consistently showcasing Drupal excellence. We've also launched a monthly "Best of Drupal" carousels on social media that highlights outstanding projects from across the community.

These monthly campaigns:

  • Celebrate exceptional work from DCPs and the broader Drupal community
  • Build momentum by regularly showcasing what Drupal can do
  • Create shareable content that partners can amplify through their own channels
  • Keep Drupal visible in social feeds where decision-makers spend time

Together, the industry pages and monthly social campaigns create a consistent drumbeat of Drupal excellence-making it easier for prospects to discover what's possible and for partners to demonstrate their expertise.

Get Involved

These pages showcase industries where we have strong case studies and proven success. To keep them fresh and expand coverage, we need:

  • Quality case studies from DCPs with recognized brands and clear results
  • Client quotes - We're looking for compelling testimonials from your clients-the actual site owners, CMOs, CTOs, and end users who experience Drupal daily. Quotes that speak to business impact, technical capabilities, or how Drupal solved their specific challenges add authenticity and credibility to industry pages. Submit quotes alongside your case studies or send them separately.
  • Your feedback on additional verticals that should be represented

Want your work featured? Maintain your DCP status, submit compelling case studies to Drupal.org with quantifiable results, and send us powerful quotes from your clients about their Drupal experience.

Not yet a Drupal Certified Partner? Becoming a DCP supports the Drupal project, gives you access to benefits like featured placement on these industry pages, and demonstrates your commitment to the Drupal ecosystem. Learn more about becoming a DCP.
