Case Study: The Shift Network Achieves a More Agile, Composable Tech Stack with Directus

The Shift Network saves a month of work and speeds website changes with Directus

The Shift Network (TSN), a global leader in online transformational education, faced challenges with an outdated Drupal website that had a clunky API and hindered agility. Their challenge was to empower non-technical staff to manage content and media while overhauling their tech stack to be more modern and composable. They turned to the vendor Directus for a headless CMS solution.

By implementing Directus, TSN gained an intuitive, API-driven platform that provided granular roles and permissions, allowing non-technical staff to safely update content without code. The solution saved significant development time, with tasks that previously took a month being completed in seconds. Tony Macias, Tech Lead, stated that without Directus, the team would not have been able to deliver the project on their dates, making the website overhaul a success.
