Case Study: Iconfinder accelerates time to market with Hygraph

Iconfinder accelerates time to market from months to weeks with Hygraph

Iconfinder, the world's largest icon marketplace, faced a challenge with its hardcoded content. This process created dependencies, slowing down their ability to launch new projects like their "Illustrations" offering. The content team was unable to make agile updates without engineering support. To meet aggressive timelines and empower their marketing team, they needed a new solution and turned to the Hygraph content management system.

By implementing Hygraph, Iconfinder decoupled their teams and gained a flexible content backend. The solution provided an intuitive UI for the content team and GraphQL APIs that integrated with their existing Django database. This allowed them to build and populate new page proofs-of-concept rapidly. As a result, Hygraph enabled Iconfinder to successfully launch their new Illustrations initiative in just three weeks, drastically accelerating their time to market from months to weeks and giving the content team full control.
