Migrating to Quartex
Migrating your digital content from an existing platform to a new system offers many opportunities for improving the way you organise and present your content. Personalised training and support from a vendor can make the transition easier.
While many of our customers complete their work independently, some have a condensed timeline for migration or lack the staffing needed to handle the migration.
For these customers, we offer a more comprehensive solution including migration, site build and design. We can help with everything from data clean-up and cataloguing your assets, to ingesting your metadata into the Quartex platform.
I was really interested in migrating to a platform that more of the team could be involved in, so there was less of a bottleneck, more ownership of the software, and more agency for the team.
How long does it take to migrate to Quartex?
There's no fixed timeline. The system is flexible, and training can be organised according to your needs and preferred timeline.
We recommend that you plan according to your current contract obligations. If your contract is renewing in a year or less, start the planning process now.

Partnership working to fast-track publication
The Eunice and James L. West Library at Texas Wesleyan University set an ambitious target of building and launching its new site in three months. To achieve this without impacting other projects, the team took advantage of Quartex’s site-build service to design and implement its front-end digital collections site.
