Skvare is an established team of website and CiviCRM experts. We are techie geeks at heart. Some would call us very square, though with some quirks.

Skvare (pronounced "square") is a team of CMS (Drupal), CRM (CiviCRM), and Learning Management (Drupal-based LMS & LRS) experts that specialize in building online presence, community management, and online learning tools for non-profit organizations, professional societies, membership-driven associations, and educational institutions. Square and uneven.

CEPR connects nearly 2,000 economists across 30 countries. When they needed a public platform where researchers and policymakers could discover publications and profiles, all the data already existed — inside a CiviCRM system their team depended on daily.

The problem wasn't the data. It was making it publicly accessible without breaking what already worked.

We built a read-only database architecture so public traffic wouldn't affect the primary system, a real-time indexing pipeline so search results updated automatically, and a unified taxonomy that let staff tag both Drupal content and CiviCRM records with the same terms. The full case study covers how each piece fit together for a live launch.

Most hosting includes uptime monitoring. That tells you when a site is already down.

We built a custom stack using Prometheus and Grafana that goes further — tracking performance trends, system health, and application behavior across all the sites we manage. When something starts moving in the wrong direction, we see it before users do.

We wrote up how it works for anyone managing their own infrastructure or curious about what thoughtful hosting oversight actually involves.

IMBA has chapters across the country. Each one manages its own members and communications. National staff need to see across all of them.

We built a platform that gives every level what it needs — local dashboards and reporting for chapter leaders, direct email tools for member outreach, and chapter-branded membership cards that reflect local identity.

Multi-chapter organizations need systems that work the way they're actually structured. That's what we built here.

Drupal's configuration sync is powerful, but exporting or importing the entire configuration at once isn't always what you need.
Sometimes you just want to move a single view, a content type, or a field — without touching everything else. That's what single item import and export makes possible.

We wrote a practical walkthrough covering how to use it, when it's useful, and a few things worth knowing before you do it in production.

A membership badge on a provider's website is a trust signal. It tells visitors this organization meets a standard. But if that badge can stay up after a membership expires, the signal breaks down.

For NAATP, we built a dynamic seal system that solves this. Seals are served remotely and connected to CiviCRM membership data. When a membership lapses, the seal is disabled automatically — no email to the member, no manual follow-up, no delay.

It's a small technical detail with a real impact on how much the credential means.

US Chess affiliates wanted to email their members. The national organization needed to keep the member list private.

We built a solution that does both — a custom CiviCRM module that lets chapters send targeted emails to their members without accessing the contact data directly. The list stays protected. The chapters get the outreach they need.

It's a good example of using open-source tools to solve a real governance problem without a workaround.

Johnson County Government needed a better way to manage public class registrations, payments, and certificates across departments — without forcing every team to work the same way.

We built a unified platform using Drupal and CiviCRM that handles it all from one place. Each department configures its own events, certificates, and reporting. Residents use one consistent, county-branded experience. And participants can now print their own certificates from their dashboard — no staff involvement needed.

What started with childcare licensing has expanded to mental health and public training programs, with more departments coming on board.

When we hit a gap in CiviCRM that affects more than one client, we build a fix and release it as an open-source extension.
The Job Status Checker alerts your team when scheduled jobs fail silently — before a constituent notices. The CMS Users extension auto-creates Drupal accounts when contacts match a tag or group. The Manage Group extension keeps large installations from slowing down by auto-disabling groups after a set date.

These are maintained, free extensions available to any organization running CiviCRM. We've put together a full list of what we've built.

When LMDA decided to move their site to WordPress, they had a webmaster they trusted. They didn't need someone to take over — they needed someone who could handle CiviCRM and get out of the way.

That's what we did. We migrated their live CiviCRM database to WordPress, preserved every member record and contact link, resolved a conflict that was blocking form submissions, and handed the site back to their webmaster intact. He retained full ownership. We filled the gap he needed filled.

If you're working with an existing developer and need CiviCRM expertise for a specific piece of a project, that's exactly the kind of engagement we're set up for.

When someone's status changes in CiviCRM, does their website access update automatically?

For most organizations, the answer is: only if someone remembers to do it manually. A member joins, a record gets created, and then a separate step has to happen in Drupal before they can actually log in.

The CMS Users extension from Skvare automates that handoff. CiviCRM contacts get corresponding CMS accounts created and linked based on tags or groups — no manual step, no delay, no one falling through the cracks.
