Cedar Falls, IOWA, Oct. 26, 2009 – T8DESIGN, a provider of Web development, management and hosting services for the financial industry, today announced it has changed its name to T8 Webware. The new name more accurately reflects the full range of T8’s Web services as well as the company’s overarching strategy that focuses on providing financial institutions with a holistic, constantly connected Web experience.

“T8 originally began as a design and consulting company, but as our clients and their consumers’ needs for Internet tools evolve, we have identified an opportunity to completely restructure customer experiences on the Web,” explained Wade Arnold, CEO of T8 Webware. “With sophisticated yet simple content management tools, any size financial institution can leverage its Web site as another channel to position cross-sell opportunities to its customer or member base.

“We believe that the [new] name, T8 Webware, better encompasses the comprehensive Web experiences we deliver to our customers, and also opens the door for additional functionality as we continue to grow the digital solutions we offer.”

T8 Webware provides its customers with Web sites that are custom-designed to each financial institution, never derived from a template. The company offers Web site development, hosting and design and remote backup services. FREEDOM8, its content management system, additionally enables financial institutions to effectively update and alter their Web sites’ text and images. The tool’s ease of workflow allows T8 Webware customers to maintain an active Web presence, therefore improving their online traffic and organic search results. All of the company’s Web sites are mobile optimized, offering financial institutions’ customers the instant information that they need in an easily accessible format.
