Using Content Management Systems makes maintaining and updating websites easy for the tech weary and delivers scalability and out-of-the-box functionality to the advanced user. Articles can be created, edited and deleted in a matter of minutes. Publishing systems make it possible for authors to write articles and for publishers to put them online after revising them. Content can be written and published for a certain amount of time, can be put offline for later or even archived and searched for.
Most changes can be finished even during a briefing, results are instantly online and with different user privileges, everyone can have the access to the functionality they need without letting untrained personnel mingle with touchy administrative features. Content Management Systems mean more investment costs for deployment, but great savings in administration cost in a mid-term perspective.
We mostly work on Open Source Content Management Systems. First of all, they are free and extremely powerful (most of the top CMS are Open Source Software, simply because of their its commited and strong developer community). Secondly, with Open Source we are allowed to make any modification to the standard code, allowing us to provide you with a solution exactly tailored to your unique needs. Also Open Source Software generally makes use of open non-propriatary standards (like OpenLDAP, XML) and makes adapting simple, even inviting for others - also for commercial and 'Closed Source' extensions!
