Common Media

Common Media is a web development and consulting firm headquartered in Massachusetts' Pioneer Valley. We specialize in open source and custom built content management solutions for publishing companies and non-profits. Our finest work is performed in conjunction with best-in-class design and branding partners, and we take special pride in matching our partner's level of execution with intuitive and dependable back-end solutions. Our staff of eight in-house developers and consultants make a point to deliver outstanding results, on-time and on-budget. Technically speaking, we specialize in two platforms: Ruby on Rails for full-custom builds, and Drupal for open source solutions.

We’re interested in the client, not just the project, and we like long-term relationships. We take the client’s needs and expectations seriously and that drives us to deliver projects not just on time, but also on budget – and to the client’s satisfaction. We take the time to talk to our clients to make sure we have a solid understanding of their objectives and goals for the project, how the project fits into their business as a whole, and what their expected impact is post-launch – and down the road a bit. We accomplish this by truly listening to our clients, and treating each client relationship like a partnership: we are successful if we help our clients achieve success. That happens by embracing two basic but critical realizations: while clients and/or projects may share some similarities, ultimately each one is unique; and that even though the work is online, there are people behind the project and behind each question that comes through the queue.
