The term Content Management System (CMS) is used to refer to any software that is used to change the content of a website. This broad definition is one of the reasons there is so much confusion surrounding Content Management, and explains why there are so many different products and choices available.
Almost all of the websites that are built today integrate with some kind of CMS, ranging from the commercial, enterprise-scale products (e.g. Interwoven, Rhythmyx, Documentum, Gauss) through open-source frameworks (e.g. OpenCMS) to custom built solutions.
We will help you decide the best solution for you, whether this is a commercial package, open source, or our own EccoCMS solution. To do this, we will need to understand your processes and requirements, for example, how much control should your content editors have over the presentation of their content? Do you need versioning, locking and deployment, an approval workflow? Is there a need for work areas, staging and live environments?
Bright Interactive have developed our own capable, light weight CMS, called EccoCMS, which we can easily integrate with your website or intranet. Users can update content and images using simple admin pages, without needing to worry about disturbing the layout or look & feel.
OpenCms is a mature and respected, open source, fully featured CMS. Bright Interactive has experience of implementing the OpenCms framework on many successful websites and intranets.
We offer a full, comprehensive package for our CMS projects, from implementation and assistance with the initial content entry to full on-site training, site-specific user guides, hosting, and an ongoing support plan.
