One Giant :Technology Partners

In order to provide top quality products and services, One Giant partners are researched and selected based on 1 main criteria: they must be the best there is. In many cases we are who we work with, so we make sure to bring our clients the services of the top companies in their respective spaces.

Google

We use Gmail as one web-based email option, and Google Analytics to measure website performance with automated reports. Google needs no introduction.

Adobe

Thanks to Adobe's purchase of Macromedia, Flash has become a worldwide standard and evolved into open-source-SDK Flex.  One Giant utilizes this technology to provide a whole new level of RIAs, interactive websites and web application interfaces.

FlashDevelop.org

FlashDevelop is an open source alternative to using Adobe Flash or Adobe FlexBuilder.  Thanks to these guys and their great work, robust RIAs can be developed faster and cleaner than traditional industry-leading software from Adobe!  One Giant Media is a proud sponsor of this project and encourages anyone that wants to help the progression of rich flash/flex media to donate a modest amount to their organization.
