About Advia Credit Union
Advia Credit Union has a mission to provide financial advantages to its members by providing advice, advocating for members, and offering advantages other financial institutions don’t. This is accomplished through innovative financial solutions and a new, scalable website. For this new site, Advia sought to proactively provide the quickest and easiest digital solution for members to get the best user experience. Advia is not like other financial institutions; this is illustrated in Advia’s commitment to serving the ever-changing financial needs of its members. One of its core values is to drive progress by engaging in a spirit of innovation and developing new digital service tools for its members. This led to an innovative website redesign to give members easy access to information digitally.
The Challenge
The old website was not intuitive, and the overall digital experience lacked. The lending areas of the old site for both mortgages and auto loans were not producing results. With increased in mobile traffic, the site needed an improved mobile user experience. A major challenge facing Advia’s business team was the organization and content hierarchy of the old site. The content was repetitive and text-heavy, and members were confused about where to find the information they sought. Other obstacles included Advia’s team being unable to easily update the content and structure of the pages on the old website.
Goals for the New Site:
- Improved navigation layout
- Measurable enhancements
- Increase time spent on the website
- Meets brand standards with redesign
- Increase overall visitors engagement
- Increase content management efficiency
Advia wanted to create a “one-stop” resource center to educate members on digital banking—including forms, links, documents, and video tutorials. Two goals for the new Advia Credit Union website were simplifying content and allowing self-service for members. Advia did not want to reinvent the wheel in terms of UI but wanted to deliver a better digital experience to its members and potential new members. The new website provides a clean and clear navigation experience to eliminate clutter and confusion.
The Right Platform
SilverTech reviewed several CMS/DX platforms with Advia. Progress Sitefinity was the chosen platform, giving Advia a fully optimized digital experience. Using the page templates on the Sitefinity platform allows Advia to accomplish the goals for the new site by enhancing the design and layout of the website with ease. The new website improves the user experience with the use of properly placed navigation buttons and call to actions (CTAs) clearly directing users through the content on the page to the sub-pages. Advia’s site has an engaging navigation and advanced filter functionality allowing users to get to the content they are looking for with ease. Additionally, the Advia content team can seamlessly update and create pages within the Sitefinity CMS, keeping the website current and relevant.

New York Proton Center’s New Website Ranks Among the Nation’s Best In the 2024 Cancer Awareness Advertising Awards Program
Bedford, N.H., April 30, 2025 — SilverTech, an award-winning digital experience agency, in collaboration with the New York Proton Center (NYPC), is proud to announce their recognition as Gold Award winner in the 2024 Cancer Awareness Advertising Awards Program. This prestigious accolade honors their exceptional work in promoting cancer awareness and education.
The Cancer Awareness Advertising Awards (CAA Awards) is the nation’s premier competition exclusively dedicated to recognizing outstanding marketing and advertising efforts that promote cancer-related products and services. Only projects specifically designed, printed, published, and distributed for the purpose of cancer awareness are eligible for entry into this prestigious annual program. The Gold Award is bestowed upon organizations that demonstrate excellence in advertising and marketing.
SilverTech and NYPC's award-winning website was designed to educate the public about the benefits of proton therapy, an advanced form of radiation treatment that targets cancer cells with precision, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
