We're back in the WordPress world. 🌎

For many years, Drupal has been APAX Software's CMS of choice. We stepped away from WordPress for a long time because frankly, it wasn't the right tool for what our clients needed. But the platform has come a long way, and as an enterprise CMS powering brands like CNN, Microsoft, and TED at scale, it's hard to ignore. With WordPress 7.0 dropping last week with native AI integration baked right in, it was the kind of thing that makes you pay attention. It basically means AI tooling is now part of the core infrastructure rather than something you have to patch on with plugins.

For our clients, that translates to things like smarter content suggestions, auto-generated image descriptions, and built-in translation assistance, all without needing a bunch of extra tools layered on top. We actually just launched vitaspa.com this month as our first WordPress site in years, so the timing feels right. It's a good time to be building on WordPress again!

If you’ve never been on a custom software call before, it can feel like you’re supposed to show up with all the answers.

A full spec. A perfect budget. The exact solution.

You don’t need that.

In this blog, our Head of Sales Amanda Murray shares the 5 questions she hears on almost every first call, and the honest answers we give at APAX so you can show up prepared and leave with clarity.

Most software projects don’t fail because the team can’t build.

They fail because value shows up too late. By the time the big launch arrives, priorities changed, stakeholders shifted, and everyone’s tired.

Our 2026 theme is deliver value quickly. Not rushed. Not cutting corners. Just reducing the time between “we have a problem” and “we can feel the solution working.”

In the blog, we break down what that actually means, plus the signals to look for in a software partner so you do not end up with a long, anxious build.

Meet Lindsay Rall, our newest Project Manager at APAX Software!

Lindsay is jumping in to lead Pod 2 and bring even more clarity to how we plan, communicate, and deliver for clients. In her words, she’s all about making sure the work is scoped, documented, and organized in a way that makes sense for both the team and the client, with roadmaps that go beyond “what are we doing next week?”

A few fun Lindsay facts:

đŸ—Łïž She can quote basically every Seinfeld episode
đŸŒ± She’s a plant person with a serious green thumb, loves old-house projects, and paints oil still lifes
đŸ¶ You can find her walking downtown with Arlo, her Cairn terrier

We’re really excited to have Lindsay on the team. Drop a welcome in the comments!

Work hard, plan hard. 👊

Last week, APAX welcomed a new Project Manager, Lindsay, to the team! We celebrated with a nice team walk down Main Street and lunch at Athenian Grill đŸ„™ (some of the best gyros in Lexington). Look out for a post later this week introducing Lindsay!

At lunch, we talked about our favorite childhood board games and how that related to each of our roles now. Monopoly, Candy Land, Mousetrap.

Our strength comes from building a team with complementary skill sets; always ready to work together, adapt, and grow.

Where should we go for our next lunch?

It’s 3:07pm on a Friday.

A clinic calls: their hours changed today.

The contact center is already getting complaints.

Marketing can’t update the page because the approval workflow is stuck.

IT doesn’t want to touch the CMS because the last update broke something.

This is what enterprise content management looks like in real life.

Hospital websites aren’t brochures, they’re operational infrastructure. When the CMS slows down, patients feel it first.

If you’ve lived this moment, what caused it: approvals, permissions, or the platform itself?

Caleb King hit 5 years with APAX this month! 👑

An incredible Project Manager and friend, it's been an absolute pleasure having Caleb on the team. Check out what some of his coworkers had to say about him:

"Caleb is exactly who you want in the room when you're trying to solve mission-critical business problems. He doesn't miss details and provides the ones you didn't think of. In fifteen years, I haven't worked with a better project manager." -Chris Allen

"Caleb frequently exemplifies APAX Core Values, especially Core Value #2 “Be Excellent”, through his commitment to continuous improvement and insatiable curiosity to find better ways to do things. Caleb is not only the kind of person you want on your software development team, but also the kind of person you want if a game of ultimate frisbee or pool breaks out." -Nick Such

"Caleb is dependable, thoughtful, and always focused on what’s best for the team and our clients. He’s able to spot and resolve issues as they come up, easing tension for the team and making a lasting impact. Even under pressure, he never loses sight of the bigger picture and communicates a clear path forward. We're lucky to have him on the team!" -Megan Sizemore

"Caleb is the team player that every team wants and needs. Hes selfless, hungry, and willing to jump in to help out a teammate. Thankful for Caleb and all he does at APAX. And if you’re playing sand volleyball, put him on your side of the net." -Brian Raney

We're thankful for you, Caleb! Join us in celebrating him today.
