Challenge

As an insurance provider, Berjaya Sompo's website needed to project security and credibility, visitors researching insurance products need to trust the institution behind them, which meant the platform itself had to be built and maintained to a high standard from day one. Beyond the initial build, keeping a Drupal platform secure and stable over time requires ongoing version upgrades, letting the CMS fall behind on updates risks both security vulnerabilities and eventual loss of vendor support.

Goal

Deliver a secure, professionally built Drupal corporate website for Berjaya Sompo, then maintain it over the long term through active managed services and periodic version upgrades, keeping the platform stable, current, and properly supported.

Solution

Sweetmag built Berjaya Sompo's corporate site on Drupal with a full CMS setup, then continued supporting the platform through managed services and a version upgrade roughly two years after launch.

Corporate Website Build on Drupal

Sweetmag delivered a full UI/UX design and Drupal CMS build for Berjaya Sompo's corporate website, including content structuring, theming, and the underlying infrastructure needed to run a secure, professionally managed insurance website.

Ongoing Managed Services

Since launch, Sweetmag has provided Berjaya Sompo with active managed services covering maintenance, uptime, error resolution, and security handling, giving Berjaya Sompo's team a dedicated technical partner rather than needing in-house Drupal expertise.

Drupal Version Upgrade for Long-Term Security

Roughly two years after the initial build, Sweetmag carried out a full Drupal core and module upgrade to the latest supported version, resolving any resulting theme or configuration issues and validating the site through QA and UAT before deployment. This kept Berjaya Sompo's platform secure, stable, and properly supported rather than running on an ageing, increasingly vulnerable CMS version.
