Content Management Systems
We use many powerful open source software tools, including open source Content Management System (CMS) applications for our websites. These platforms offer many advantages for clients, users and website developers. We pair these platforms with a variety of professionally developed open source frameworks and applications to streamline the process, saving time and money while providing endless options, virtually any type of custom functionality is possible.
Manage Your Own Website
One of the core reasons we use Content Management Systems is to allow our clients and staff to update and change content as they wish. This empowers our clients to choose their own path for website updating and maintenace. We provide support and tutorials to help with the process. The website administration area can be accessed from any computer that has internet access - providing ultimate flexibility, accessibility and control for our clients over the lifespan of the website.
Powerful Applications
Another key reason for for using CMS is the extensive variety of applications that are available for these platforms. Having powerful functionality is just a few clicks away and can often be put in place without the expense of hiring expensive programmers. Virtually any type of application can be put in place quickly, at a low cost, to accomplish any functionality requirements that are necessary.
Database Driven
All CMS systems run from a database. This offers many benefits including site security, statistical tracking, user auditing and advanced application functionality. Every change, visit, action and function is recorded in the database and the data can be retrieved and used by applications and administrators.
Take your Pick
While there are many CMS options to choose from, we primarily use Joomla for our standard websites and Wordpress for blog based websites. Each has it's strengths and are better suited for different scenarios. With both, there are a wealth of design options, applications, plug-ins and administrative options. Either one is perfectly suited to create a flexible and powerful website.
