Platforms & Products
The right platform for what you are actually building.
KWALL has been choosing, building, and supporting digital platforms since 2008. We work on open-source CMS platforms, implement Modern Campus for higher education, and offer our own multi-site product, Accorbis. When off-the-shelf will not do, we build custom.
OPEN-SOURCE PLATFORMS
Drupal, WordPress, and headless done properly.
Three open-source stacks form the foundation of most of what we build. We have deep expertise in all three and will recommend the one that fits your team, your content model, and your long-term goals.
01 · DRUPAL
Robust, scalable, and built for complexity.
The right choice when you need complex content governance, structured data, or true multi-site architecture across dozens of properties.
02 · WORDPRESS
User-friendly, with a huge plugin and block ecosystem.
Editors learn it quickly. The editorial experience is hard to beat for institutions that publish frequently.
03 · HEADLESS
React and modern JavaScript stacks for dynamic, app-like experiences.
04 · ACCORBIS
Multi-site at scale.
MODERN CAMPUS CMS
A CMS built for higher education, implemented by people who know it.
Modern Campus is a CMS purpose-built for universities and colleges. It handles the specific requirements of academic web publishing: department sites, program pages, decentralized authorship, and institutional accessibility standards. KWALL implements, customizes, and supports Modern Campus for institutions that have already chosen it or are evaluating it. We tailor the platform to your academic web needs, train your editors, and stay on as a support partner.
- Full implementation and configuration
- Custom templates for departments, programs, and colleges
- Accessibility compliance aligned to higher ed requirements
- Editor onboarding and workflow design
- Ongoing support and platform upgrades
CUSTOM PLATFORMS
Built from the ground up when nothing fits.
Some problems do not have a product answer. When the complexity of your content model, integration requirements, or workflow rules exceeds what any CMS can handle out of the box, we design and build a custom platform. We have done this on Drupal, WordPress, and headless JavaScript stacks. Every custom platform KWALL delivers includes content modeling from day one, a design system built for longevity, and WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility as a hard requirement.
- Content modeling and taxonomy architecture
- Design systems built for teams that maintain them
- WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility, built in from the start
- Hosting through Pantheon, Acquia, WP VIP, or Accorbis
- Higher ed, government, and enterprise experience since 2008

FAQ
Questions worth asking.
Do you build custom platforms, or do you only implement existing CMS products?
Both. We implement and support established platforms including Drupal, WordPress, and Modern Campus. When none of them fit, we design and build custom platforms from the ground up on Drupal, WordPress, or headless JavaScript stacks. The choice depends on your content requirements, team capacity, and long-term roadmap.
What is Modern Campus CMS and do you support it?
Modern Campus is a CMS designed specifically for higher education. It handles the publishing workflows, department hierarchies, and accessibility requirements that general-purpose CMS platforms do not address out of the box. KWALL implements, customizes, and provides ongoing support for Modern Campus at universities and colleges.
What is Accorbis?
Accorbis is a web platform built by KWALL. It gives organizations one dashboard to build, deploy, and manage a network of Drupal and WordPress sites. Hosting is included. It is a practical choice for university systems, government agencies, and enterprises that run many sites and want to manage them consistently without stitching together separate tools.
Which is better for our university: Drupal or WordPress?
It depends on what you are solving for. Drupal is the stronger choice for complex content governance, structured data, and large multi-site networks where consistency and control matter most. WordPress is the stronger choice when you have many editors, publish content frequently, and want a platform your team can manage without heavy technical support. We have built successful sites on both for higher education clients and will give you a straight recommendation once we understand your situation.
Do you handle hosting, or just the build?
We do both. For hosting partners we work with Pantheon, Acquia, and WP VIP. For clients who want everything in one place, Accorbis includes hosting alongside platform management. We can also advise on your existing infrastructure if you prefer to keep hosting in-house.
