The Work

The Challenge

Outdated website didn’t reflect the elegance and sophistication of the Crystal Cruises brand

Poor user navigation made it difficult to explore destinations or choose between ocean, river, or yacht travel experiences

Marketing team relied on developers for all website updates, creating inefficiencies and delays

Struggled to integrate key systems like Salesforce Community Cloud and Versonix Seaware

Required the current website to remain functional during the development of the new one

The Solution

HyperFlow Digital partnered with Crystal Cruises to elevate their digital presence into a world-class platform matching the premium nature of their services.
