Why Drupal was chosen
Drupal was chosen primarily because of its powerful integration with Apache Solr and actually the whole Search API engine. That allows us to achieve a great search experience with geo and facets features. Also, Drupal is flexible, powerful in the development of custom web solutions, has abundant content management capabilities, and hierarchical taxonomy systems. Moreover, Drupal can perfectly fit into a startup due to its capability to provide quick project growth and to add new features.
