Amaxus - XML Content Management System - Overview
The Content Management Challenge
So you're looking for a solution to your content management challenge. You need a content management system. Although there are many such systems, which one is right for you? Each organisation will be in a unique situation.
However, in all likelihood, some if not all of the following will apply to your organisation:
- The need for central administrative control
- The desire to decentralise management of content and give ownership of that content to the relevant departments
- You have several sites that you'd like to manage via one content management system
- The people in your organisation know their content subject, but aren't technically minded
- You have specific server requirements
- You want people in your organisation to be able to manage the site from more than one location, but you want to keep control of who can access the system
- You don’t want to be faced with complex licensing structures and escalating costs
- You want your content to be future-proofed - in fact, you want your content management system to be future-proofed
- You want to make the management of content as simple a process as possible, whilst ensuring that the correct people are authorising any published content
- You’d like the same content management system to run your public website and Intranet – in fact you may want to run many sites across the world, both public and those with restricted access – all from the same system
- You don’t want to be installing software across all your organisation’s locations
- You want to be able to produce pages or whole sites in more than one language
- You want to ‘re-use’ your content and don’t want to have to reversion the content each time you want to use it in a different format
- You want to be able to add and edit online forms, contacts, links and other resources in seconds, without the need to involve anyone technical
- You want your site to be easy to use, as well as being accessible to users with specific needs
- You want the content management system to natively support XML and other industry standards, not have them bolted on as an afterthought
- You want users of your sites to be able to search for information intelligently, both on individual sites and across all your different sites
- You want to be able to manage your resources such as images, Word documents, PDF files and so on, all via the same system
- You don't want a compromise
- You have a specific budget for an immediate solution, but don’t want to outgrow your content management system in a year’s time
If you have any (or all) of these requirements, you need Amaxus - the XML content management system.
