We develop websites and web-based platforms using the Drupal content management system, and combine its robust backend features with open source Javascript libraries to develop cutting edge applications for reporting, data management, e-commerce, and media. We also perform technical research for discovery of open source projects that assist clients in reaching their digital goals.

If you are ready to move beyond big-platform starter solutions, and need customization to make your platform hit its maximum potential, we can show you what to use, put it in place, and keep it up-to-date for you.

 

WHO WE ARE

We are a team of web development and graphic design professionals, with particular expertise in the Drupal content management platform, and in frontends driven by Javascript, HTML5 and CSS3. In addition to our client work, we also code for fun and community, with founder Michael Nolan having a very active Drupal.org account.

An early version of the business, WebChemi, was founded by Dr. Michael Nolan in 2012 as a student studying catalysis. After solving a scheduling conflict in the lab with a simple calendar app, he saw the potential in improving research by automating simple administrative tasks, and went to work on laboratory automation with "WebChemi Lab Manager," a precursor to CeriumSoft's Niobi Research Center and ERC360. During this early phase of the company, Michael built a small team with Andy Scott, working together to develop new offerings for our clients, and also rebranding to Cerium Software.
