Tibus has been awarded the accolade of Global Site of the Year 2011 for their discoverireland.ie site.

"Tibus is delighted that Discoverireland.ie has been recognised as Global Winner of Kentico Site of the Year 2011” says Rick McKee, MD Tibus. “This site is the culmination of a lot of hard work by the teams in Tibus and our client Fáilte Ireland, the national tourism body for Ireland.

The Kentico platform has been an amazing system on which to develop our end product; it has allowed us to innovate visually and technically with great support always available from the Kentico team. The feedback from site visitors and the Fáilte Ireland content team has been fantastic, with the site living up to the original vision of delivering a showcase for Ireland.”

“Not only exciting graphics and a fantastic user experience make the Discover Ireland website unique and compelling. It also provides advanced features such as ‘My Discoveries’ and ‘Trip Planner’ that help visitors better plan their trips. I can clearly see why Discover Ireland is the main source of information for organising a holiday in Ireland,” said Eva Palbuchtova,” Marketing Specialist at Kentico Software. “I am proud to congratulate Tibus, along with the entire list of winners of each category, who proved their exceptional skills in delivering first-class websites.”
