Very professional, easy to deal with and never felt pressured. The Salesman Deklon was fantastic from start to finish, listened to what I needed on the car, and made one suggestions which enhanced the car or the rental. Arranging the finance was straight forward and was kept up to date throughout the process. I highly recommend anyone who wants a straight forward service, you have to come here. More...

We've been outsourcing our more complex web development tasks with Blue Mantis for a couple of years now and we've never looked back since. Knowing we can rely on such an experienced and efficient team means that we can promise our clients a far better result. We look forward to continuing to work with them for years to come. More...

We've worked with Blue Mantis for a number of years and recently hired them to help take Elemental Fitness Ltd to the next level by improving our website, building a clients interactive dashboard alongside improving our online presence. The new website they designed for me is superb, it's modern, informative and accessible to all no matter what device you are on. The interactive dashboard has been a great addition to our services. And we have implemented the advice they have given us to improve our social media presence which is already showing results. We are extremely happy with the work they have produced and have already noticed an increase in online enquiries since the website went live. We are excited to what else we develop with Blue Mantis and couldn't recommend them highly enough! More...

James helped pick out a car for me and found me a very competitive price over 3 years. The entire process took less than 24 hours and the delivery time is only one week for this particular car. This is the second time I've used Vantage and been more than satisfied each time. Great service from James, will be back in 3 years time for my next car. More...

Great team who have served me well over the years. I use PKN for both personal and business financial matters. Initially it was focussed around end of year returns but quickly I have seen additional value of the personal service to get the best tax advice for my complex needs. My policy is, "I get paid to do what I'm good at and I pay others to do what they are good at"; PKN offers an excellent service at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. More...

CONTENT MANAGED WEBSITES
Being able to update your website should be a given. It should be something that’s easy to do, not in the least bit daunting and allows you to have control about what you say and when you say it. Keeping your content fresh keeps people interested so it’s important to have a system that works for you.
Our CMS of choice is Craft CMS, which is intuitive, simple, secure and supported by a professional team. Whether it’s updating a blog, shop opening times, team profiles or adding products to your website, this is a system that is on your side.
We can also develop any of our own ideas with this system, measure insights and build solutions that are scalable. And we pride ourselves on our high levels of security, specialising in sla, encryption and privacy.
At the end of a project, we offer a CMS training so our customers can learn and master updating and editing content on their new site.
USER EXPERIENCE & USER CENTERED DESIGN
Balance, rhythm, and proportion set the foundation for our websites and applications. Fuse that with point, line, shape, colour and typography and you’ll get something that looks, feels and moves like a digital dream.
As opposed to overloading you with lots of concepts, we do plenty of idea generation before filtering and distilling things down to a single-minded approach that sings out above the rest. One that not only has its own mojo but has a mark of absolute quality and attention to detail. And then we take it into prototype stage, enhancing the user experience and user flows, using personas, where relevant. Fine-tuning and honing everything down until it’s ready to launch, live and breathe.
WEB APPLICATIONS
This is where we really come into our own. We love solving problems, making businesses more efficient and coming up with big ideas that improve processes and make life easier for everyone. Web based applications have a direct impact on your business because they are based on real insight that comes from you, your employees and your customers
Many businesses still rely on old systems and technologies (such as spreadsheets) to manage their critical business operations, when web technologies can considerably improve workflow and efficiencies, making your business run faster and smoother.
With a bespoke web application, customers can make purchases anytime they please, external suppliers and contractors can enjoy improved communication, and your team can directly access their latest key performance data.
AGENCY OUTSOURCING
We can tailor our level of involvement to suit a variety of needs - from being a silent partner where the client doesn't even know we exist (or assumes we're a member of your internal team), through to managing projects on your behalf and having direct contact and meetings with the client.
When you’re great at what you do, it makes sense to bring in other people who are great at what they do. People with different skillsets who can work in partnership with you to broaden your offer. We work with design and development agencies, from small studios to big brand consultancies, partnering with them to provide technology, strategy and web design and build services. We can be visible and attend meetings or, if you have a high workload and need us to dip in and out of projects then we can give you that extra level of capacity. We’re efficient, friendly, play well with our partners and cover a wide range of technologies to deliver original solutions with vision.
INTERACTIVE WEB CONTENT
Harnessing the power and flexibility of HTML5, we can create interactive content for web that will blow your socks off.
We use web development standards such as HTML5 alongside a wide range of other techniques and technologies to ensure that our digital solutions deliver effective, high quality experiences for audiences.
Audiences use a wide and diverse range of devices, HTML5 allows us to create exciting interactive content for any device without loosing any of the rich user experience.
EXTENSIONS & PLUGIN DEVELOPMENT
Craft CMS is our go-to tool for website development, and we enjoy being part of the ever increasing Craft community. We have created a range of plugins used all in projects by agencies and website owners over the world, including BM Private Messaging and BM Ebay Feed.
E-COMMERCE
Selling online is a real art and a skill. If you’ve never done it before then it can be a bit daunting, and if you’ve been doing it for a while already then you’ll know that the latest technology can really drive your retail objectives. Our job is to help you sell more, streamline your processes, reach new markets, reduce costs and improve profitability.
Our online stores look the part and are a dream to use with User Centred Design and cross-platform solutions that make sure your customers are happy ones. You’ll have a single point of contact, a top-notch, intuitive CMS system and a platform that meets your needs and fits your budget. We can build a bespoke solution or integrate into your existing platform with ongoing support and measurable results.
