I have used the Luggage platform to create a new departmental homepage and it works just great. Keeping the website up to date has been especially easy within Luggage, as responsibilities are shared among various users that are free to create their own content on the subpages they own. Style is modern and information is well displayed. The very good search function is a big plus. Getting monthly feedback about the usage of our website has been useful to optimize the parts that are accessed more frequently. -- Peter Orth

After years (or was it decades) of struggling with an adequate but cumbersome web site for creating the Horticulture and Home Pest Newsletter, the BIO IT crew rolled a new, efficient newsletter website into the overall make-over of the diverse and duplicative consumer horticulture websites. Now our Extension horticulture information for home gardeners is gathered into one location with clear and easy access to the various components. The E-newsletter, specifically, is much easier and quicker to create now that web operations are intuitive and logical. -- Donald Lewis
