Case Study:

Seagate Design Refresh and

Template Development

Seagate is the worldwide leader in the design, manufacture and marketing of hard disc drives and storage solutions, providing products for a wide-range of applications, including Enterprise, Desktop, Mobile Computing, Consumer Electronics and Branded Solutions. With the continual introduction of new products and solutions, and expansion into new industries and applications, Seagate has a critical need for far-reaching web strategies and a robust, scalable platform for growth.

When Seagate wanted to optimize their web site to achieve more efficient maintenance, greater scalability and improved user experience, they turned to AtreNet.

AtreNet engineers developed new HTML/CSS for all pages of Seagate.com in order to provide consistency and standards compliance. AtreNet creative teams developed new designs and navigation strategies for all top level pages of Seagate.com, as well as application UI and Portal framework pages. All design strategies and implementation best practices were carefully documented in order to maintain brand consistency and provide clear standards for development moving forward. AtreNet kept an eye to future-proofing and globalization in all phases of development, ensuring a scalable and extensible infrastructure.

The Challenge

• Seagate.com was burdened by non standards-compliant code, hindering effective maintenance and development
• Top level pages within Seagate.com were not optimally presenting Seagate’s offerings
• Online application interfaces did not reflect design standards
• Designs and implementation did not support Seagate’s localization requirements
