Web Industries
Web Industries makes cool stuff happen on the web.
We are Kiwi web specialists, with a passion for making your web presence enjoyable and painfree... just how it should be!
We build awesome websites and systems, using Drupal - the world's best content development platform, and love applying web technology to help businesses and organisations achieve their goals – whatever they may be.
Whether you run a large IT department and need an enterprise grade Drupal system with complex workflows and integrations; are a small business owner and need a flexible and cost effective website; or are a budding entrepreneur with a really cool idea that needs turning into reality, we can help out.
When we're building a Drupal system, we have some priorities we stay focused on:
- Achieving Results
- The Future
- Value-for-money
- Speedy Development
- Simplification
We look to build a Drupal systems that serve their purpose and deliver you the results you are looking for. Requirements change, problems occur, things get delayed - these are realities of life. Good planning helps avoid some of these issues, and in order to deal with these challenges as they occur, we keep our clients involved in discussions, and up-to-date with progress.
Web Industries provides a full range of web services:
- Web application development (in Drupal, of course!)
- Integrations with other systems (we are Approved Xero API Developers, and have experience working on a huge range of third party integrations)
- Drupal 7 Website Development (including eCommerce, Blogs, Image Sliders, anything you want basically!)
- Drupal Design and Theming (a website has to look the part, and having spent countless hours theming Drupal, we know how to make it look awesome!)
- Drupal training and assistance (we're here to help you get the best out of Drupal)
- Drupal optimised Hosting and infrastructure (set up specifically to run Drupal, we provide great value hosting, reseller accounts, and custom environments)
- Search and marketing (the best website in the world is hopeless if no-one sees it!!)
We are based in Wellington, but work with clients from across New Zealand and around the world.
“Web Industries was recommended to the Association. At the initial project meeting Steve quickly identified that he was dealing with a novice. He spoke in no-jargon language but at no time did I feel patronised. He clearly identified what we required and actioned this in a very efficient and effective manner. At all times Steve has maintained good communication both by email and phone and there has been clear consultation through each step of the process.
“We at the Wellington Cats Protection League would like to recommend, without reservation, the work of Web Industries.
They approached us (unsolicited) and asked if they could help us with anything in the web space. When told that we’d recently had a new design done to refresh our rather old and tired looking website, they offered to implement that for free and to host the new website, also for free.
“Web Industries were the right choice for us – they already knew our system and understood our business: they hit the ground running. They had excellent processes in place to accommodate our needs – and they pulled out all stops to get the website in great shape before launch.”

“The guys at Web Industries built my site Wannaswap for me, and the end product was great. Throughout the whole build, I was kept informed of where things were at to make sure everything was going to plan.
As well as being great at what they do, as far as turning what you want into a reality, they also let you know of any little ideas that could make your site better. If you have a good idea and you are not sure how to get it up and running, talk to these guys.”

“Web Industries helped us take an idea for a new online business and work it through to a real life website – Kiwikarma.co.nz. There were heaps of changes to the specification as we went along, and the guys were always honest and direct about the potential implications of each decision.
They were highly flexible, made some complex stuff seem really easy, and helped us build a Drupal system that is going to make a huge impact over the next few years!”

“We asked Web Industries for some urgent work on our contacts management system. They responded promptly, met with us personally to outline their approach and quickly got to grips with our customisations. Their work is excellent, with sensible methods used. We look forward to working with them in future.”

“I worked with the team at Web Industries to develop and construct the website for Moana Radio, an Iwi Radio Station in Tauranga.
“In undertaking a web-based application development project that was not well specified, we found the Web Industries team fantastic at understanding our commercial needs, translating that into functional requirements for technical development, and supporting us in navigating through the web technology mine field.
The team are responsive and accommodating, with an ability to communicate complex technical issues in a clear way that we were able to comprehend, and provide us with clear and honest answers.
"Web Industries have helped Conversant quickly and cost-effectively address several bugs, add new functionality, and make amendments to our Drupal site after our previous developer left us in the lurch. Most recently they have developed a custom module to enable our Drupal website to interact with our billing and provisioning system using SOAP web services to display a client’s account details and call history. All work has been completed promptly, on time, and within a very reasonable budget.
“Learning State approached Web Industries with a proposal to develop a new Drupal-based website. Learning State presented Web Industries with a draft sitemap having already had considerable in-house discussion as to our requirements; however our requirements also came with a very tight three-week timeline for completion.
Not only did Web Industries complete the website within the timeframe and agreed budget, they did so with several design adjustments and fine-tuning of our content.
