Anything is possible with WordPress. Period.
When we talk about and recommend WordPress, it is based on enterprise websites built for the client's specific purpose and brand. Our everyday work consists of tailor-made design, optimized code and integrations with necessary third-party systems. What you can achieve with WordPress is limited only by your imagination!
The WordPress paradox
Unlike other technologies and platforms that target a specific audience, WordPress is a platform that does both. From those who need a simple website or blog, to some of the world's biggest brands. This means that depending on your previous knowledge and experience of WordPress, you may have completely different impressions of how the platform works. And what it can do. When someone says WordPress, it can mean a DIY website set up in a day, or a highly complex marketing and communications rig - in multiple languages - with every integration imaginable. This is part of the reason why there are so many myths surrounding WordPress and why it's often a misunderstood platform.
Why big brands choose WordPress
We work exclusively with complex websites for many of Norway's best-known brands. And when we see brands like NASA, Times, Red Bull, Obama and the White House using WordPress internationally, we know it's for a good reason.

Some reasons why we like WordPress
User friendly
WordPress has always been known for its intuitive user experience, but with the introduction of Gutenberg, this experience has been taken to a whole new level. Gutenberg, the new block-based editor interface, gives you the ability to easily assemble the modules you need and edit them in a visual interface. Ask us for a demo and we'll show you!
Cost effective
WordPress is open-source, which eliminates license fees that are common with proprietary platforms. However, to say WordPress is cheap is a misconception. WordPress can be made cheaply, often with quality to match, but it can also be made with bigger budgets and with high quality. It is more accurate to say that WordPress is cost-effective.
Long service life
The cost of a web project must be seen in relation to what it costs to build the solution, and not least in relation to what it will cost to further develop the website over time. WordPress's modular approach means that a website can easily be developed over time, without having to start from scratch.
Plugins
WordPress out of the box has a lot of functionality. But there is also a whole range of plugins that cover more or less most of the needs you have on a website. Examples include Yoast, a plugin that focuses exclusively on SEO, or WooCommerce, which is the world's most widely used e-commerce platform.
API
A website in a large company is usually just one piece in a larger puzzle of systems. So it's extremely important that integrations and data flow work properly. WordPress has a powerful and modern REST API, which ensures that we can talk to systems that have a sensible API at the other end.
Safety and security
WordPress done right is very secure. As with everything else, it requires knowledge, proper configuration, infrastructure and, not least, maintenance. Security is such an important topic that we have gathered more about it in a separate article.
Did you know that WordPress was once a project started by two people, while today it represents an ecosystem and economy estimated at over 600 billion dollars.

Multisite
Multisite is perfect for companies that have many websites. It could be several brands, pages in several languages, local teams or departments. With a WordPress network installation, you can have as many websites as you want that share both design and functionality.
Design and coding systems
For large brands where consistency, usability, quality and efficiency are crucial, design systems come into their own. A design system is a collection of reusable components and guidelines that ensure consistent and recognizable design across multiple brands and websites.
