Toastmasters International: Personify and DNN for a Systems Upgrade
Project overview: an ERP and website upgrade
Toastmasters International helps people build communication and leadership skills through clubs worldwide. We supported a systems upgrade with Personify customizations, Personify eBusiness, DNN skin and CMS development, and DNN training.
About Toastmasters International
Toastmasters International is a nonprofit that helps people build communication and leadership skills. Members do that in clubs, and the organization's systems have to support joining, signing in, and the services around membership.
A large ERP upgrade
Toastmasters was overhauling and upgrading its systems. We brought business analysts, system architects, developers, and design specialists to that plan. The work was a large ERP upgrade, and we supported Toastmasters through it.
Personify, from what was then TMA Resources, is the association ERP for members, meetings, and commerce. DNN, formerly DotNetNuke, is the .NET content platform for the public website. Customizing Personify fits the ERP to how Toastmasters enrolls members and sells. A DNN skin is the design of the site. CMS development is the modules and pages staff and members use. Training is how Toastmasters' own people learned to run the DNN site after we built it.
What we delivered
- Strategic and technical consulting. Direction on the upgrade, alongside the code.
- Personify Enterprise customizations. Changes to the ERP Toastmasters runs for the organization.
- Personify eBusiness. Development and customizations for the online commerce and member-facing business layer.
- DotNetNuke skin development. The design of the public website.
- DotNetNuke CMS development. The site itself, including sign-in, the marketplace, membership, and the job board.
- DotNetNuke development training. So staff could keep building on the CMS.
We continued to support Toastmasters after the upgrade work was underway.
