The Heart Foundation: Heartmoves

The Heartmoves site ties into an Australian health initiative, which is managed by The Heart Foundation. It's a great initiative from The Heart Foundation to get Australians healthy by keeping active!

Initially bringing their own internal design to the party, The Heart Foundation required a more advanced functionality than that of previous online projects; in stepped Siteflex.

It was vital that the site was as user-friendly as possible for their program members, who use the site to promote their heart health services to the local community. Therefore, the site has been set up in such a way that members can log in and update their details, change their location and add or remove information as they please. This takes the pressure off The Heart Foundation, and allows members to proactively manage their own accounts.

This same data from the Contacts system is then displayed on a Google Map view, hence showing the locations of Heartmoves members. Taking this concept one step further than Siteflex had previously taken it, the site incorporates a search option allowing users to input a postcode and a certain radius to find relevant matches in their local area.

The site is very comprehensive, especially with regard to the advanced Contacts implementation but by using the various dynamic navigation and search elements of Siteflex it quickly becomes easy to use and navigate.

"Over a four month period and up against a number of tough competitors, the Siteflex system was chosen for its flexibility, ease of use, proven reliability and cost competitiveness"
