US or UK based only, no agencies
Zoomforth helps customers design and build beautiful no-code websites. Our software makes the complex simple and the boring beautiful. It’s like Squarespace, but for professional communications.
Zoomforth is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) microsite editor with a heavy focus on analytics and security. In Zoomforth, customers can easily build, edit, and host private microsites that are hidden behind a number of security features along with completely public microsites visible to all. Once a microsite is published, analytics data is processed to give users insight on how visitors use their sites.
