Here at Ezone we pride ourselves in our values; we firmly believe that the figure at the bottom of the financial accounts is just one aspect of our success. We try to add value, in this broader sense, to the company by taking every opportunity to have a positive impact on our environment and 
those around us and as a part of this we work with a number of charities.
One of these charities is Music in Hospitals Scotland, who aim to enhance the lives of people of all ages in hospital or long term care across Scotland through the provision of live music.
We first started working with Music in Hospitals in 2009 when they started using the WMS to manage the content on their website. They came to us earlier this year interested in redesigning their website as, although the old site had served them well, it was now beginning to show its age. So the goal with the redesign was to create a visually appealing website that maintained the functionality of the old site as well as introducing some new elements such as a blog area to keep visitors up to date with any news and events.
The new site went live in September this year and has been well received. Not only that, but the client was happy with it too:
“Ezone could not have been easier work with. We were really impressed with the speed at which you created the templates for our new site and the non-stop support you gave us both before and during the whole redesign process, at the launch and thereafter.
We are thrilled with the end result and the new site is already working very positively for us. We’ve had some terrific feedback from people who’ve used it and we’re all proud to direct people towards it.”
