Update your web site easily and efficiently!
A well implemented Content Management System (CMS) makes the process of updating your website(s) both easier and more efficient. By giving you and your staff the ability to update your site, it puts control of the updates in the hands of the people responsible for the infomation. This results in:
- More control over your website - You have more control over your website as you don't have to rely on outside consultants with competing priorities or busy internal IT staff to make every change.
- More efficient update process - Explaining what needs to be done and checking to make sure it was done properly is usually more work than just doing it yourself, so having the people responsible for the content make the updates is actually much more efficient.
- Save on maintenance costs - Often, website updates are outsourced to consultants or external developers, the cost of which adds up quickly when you're charged for every update. These maintenance changes can also discourage you from updating your site as often as you should. A CMS should cost far less than using outsourced consultants and will result in a more up-to-date website.
- Enforce site-wide standards - CMS systems make use of templates to ensure that the look of each page within your site is consistent, even enforcing fonts, sizes and colours.
In doing so, a CMS really should have a positive return on investment, saving you much more in time and real costs that the system itself costs.
We had a good deal of experience implementing CMS systems which were developed by other companies and some open-source systems, but were not impressed with the functionality, reliability and cost of those systems. We found most CMS systems difficult to use, unreliable, or simply too expensive for what they offered. While open source systems, though license free, were usually even more difficult to implement and use, usually resulting in an even greater total cost of ownership than the commercial systems. Getting timely support for open source systems was alway an issue as well.
The result is that aarmaxx has developed a CMS system , which is:
- easy to use
- feature rich
- affordable
- extremely reliable
- built upon proven technologies
