Why we decided we needed a fresh look
Today we are happy to announce that our new websites , so that we are better able to serve our customers.
However, why did we feel we needed a new look? How will this improve our customer experience?

 

What has changed?

The site’s homepage was designed to allow new users to get started easier with links to our mobile apps, other languages and commonly asked questions. The team and I wanted to make the new website faster, easier to navigate, and more user-friendly.

As a software and forestry industry innovator, it is essential for Timbeter to make information regarding our tools, use cases and industry trends easily accessible for our current and prospective clients. The goal then with this new website, is to provide our visitors a more straightforward way to learn about Timbeter’s tools, solutions and the work we are doing with forestry organizations worldwide.

But why change the website?

As Timbeter continues to grow, it became apparent to the team and our loyal user base that our platform needs to be easier to navigate and for knowledge to be easily found and shared. Our multilingual team also noted that our users required information in several local languages, in both written and video form.

Why a separate website for Timbeter Container?

Although mentioned on timbeter.com CTO Martin Kambla recognized that users using Timbeter for containers and shipping, used Timbeter differently. So the engineering team developed a separate Android and iOS (Apple) version for container users. To support and manage these users, we created a dedicated website at timbetercontainer.com
