"As social media continues to change the way that consumers and business engage, companies have become increasingly interested in how they can use Social Media features to help their business reach their customers in ways they haven't in the past," said Diego Rebosio, Chief Executive Officer, Oshyn. "Companies are looking to create communities on their websites, and to make it easier for their visitors to engage, share and discuss their content with each other and the company's brand. Drupal's extensive collection of Social Media modules, when implemented correctly, provides an edge not only for cost-conscious businesses, but for any business wanting to strengthen the bond to their customers in hopes of creating more revenue potential."
