DigitalOcean is a cloud provider that developers and businesses use to build websites and apps at an affordable price.
To attract larger enterprises and niche sectors, DigitalOcean sought to create a search directory of providers who offer specialized developer services – like Kubernetes deployment or DevOps.
DigitalOcean needed an expert to help them build this Partner Directory. And turned to Impekable for our track record of building easy-to-use partner directories for SaaS companies like Twilio.
The DigitalOcean team emphasized two main requirements:
In other words: they wanted a tool that was quick and easy to find exactly what you’re looking for.
Impekable implemented a multi-pronged approach to guarantee the DigitalOcean Partner Directory surpassed all expectations.
We began with a competitive analysis, identifying market trends and UX/UI best practices for directory design.
We created multiple iterations, integrating DigitalOcean’s feedback and refining based on industry standards.
We maintained close collaboration with the DigitalOcean team, ensuring alignment and stakeholder consensus.
The final execution involved overcoming API security restrictions enforced by DO InfoSec via a JSON workaround.
