Business Analyst Airlines/Aviation ### "Iberia corporate website and newsroom development" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 April 17, 2020 As a business analyst developing Iberia's corporate website, it was such a great experience having PressArea's IT director and developer to provide their feedback on how to improve the visibility of the site. Giving the fact that they have also got journalists background, they surely know how to attract others to visit the site and help Iberia to build a closer relationship with the media, as well as promoting widely on different social media channels by linking their corporate website to them, such as LinkedIn for instance. Pros PressArea's newsroom features are so easy to use and adapt, mainly focusing on how journalists can find press releases more efficiently. Also providing tools to create a customised layout to fit our needs and allowing us to showcase our upcoming events, latest images, videos and latest feeds from all social media channels. Cons There's not much comments on the "cons" side, it was an easy development and PressArea's staff were really hands on with all of our requests and ideas. This has given us a lot of freedom to design our ideal corporate website. Perhaps adding in new features such as a chatbot to help navigating newsrooms and other area of the site, this could be a great way for visitors to go straight to what they are looking for as soon as they access to the site.
