About Web Content Management Software
What to Look for When Choosing a Web Content Management System Security The importance of web content and the influence it can have on potential customers means that it is critically important to ensure that it is secure at all times. Monitoring and recording all activity associated with the web content management system is important to security by helping to maintain user integrity. Features such as content approval processes, user passwords, and login histories can save headaches by keeping track of all activity and making it easier to spot the source of any errors or security breaches. Content Management Consider the way web content is actually managed within the web content management system. The presence of browser based word processors such as WYSIWYG editors make it extremely easy to manage web content. In addition, simple features such as drag and drop content, image editors, and spell checkers are features that should be considered when selecting a web content management system. Although these tools are not necessarily critical to a web content management system, they make managing web content a much easier and a much smoother process. Design/Interface The look and feel of the web content management system can make a big difference in its overall effectiveness. The design and interface of the web content management system can have a dramatic impact on worker productivity. An interface that is easy to use and learn can provide cost savings by increasing employee productivity and decreasing training time, freeing workers to perform other important tasks. Support for Web 2.0 Interactions Increasingly website visitors wish to “use” the website rather than being passive visitors. New dynamic conversations, new audiences, and new models of participation such as wikis, video sharing, blogs, and reviews open content production to new audiences, introduce new models of participation and support new types of client devices and applications. Web content management systems need to encourage user-generated content and support the new web culture of communities by supporting both internal and external users.

About dotCMS
dotCMS is a commercial organization that offers a Java-based, open source CMS. In addition to the free, fully functional and latest open source code (Community Edition), dotCMS offers a commercial-grade version that is battle-tested and warranted (Enterprise Edition). The Enterprise Edition is sold as a subscription and provides access to product support offerings not available to the Community Edition. Along with its warranty against bugs, the Enterprise Edition offers automatic updates, hotfixes, realtime support and indemnification. Both the Community Edition and Enterprise Edition code are licensed under GPL v2.0. Unlike other CMS vendors, dotCMS is 100% focused on web content management systems (CMS). This focus manifests itself in many ways including a no-excuses web based architecture, a professional services group that knows the intricacies of implementation and customization and a road map that meets milestones and does not diverge from the promise of helping companies drive business through their sites. dotCMS Key Strengths * Open Source – GPL v2.0 licensing provides companies and organizations the ability to change code in any way that suits their needs, providing them with freedom of movement not found in closed source options. * dotCMS Accelerators – Accelerators decrease the time to market by offering prebuilt templates with content-types, widgets and other “best practices” functionality. By providing an advanced starting point, the Accelerator allows users to bypass the normal project roadblocks and carry momentum with project stakeholders and end-users alike. Additionally, accelerators can be totally customized for design, architecture and identity. * On-Demand Service – dotCMS onDemand is the fastest and easiest way to start a web project. Whether users are managing one site or hundreds, leveraging the advantages of cloud computing makes it easy to scale to an enterprise’s growing needs. * Custom Hosting – dotCMS offers comprehensive end-to-end managed custom hosting solutions. The dotCMS managed environment provides controlled scalability and security, enabling clients to offload the costs of web infrastructure and personnel while maintaining premium, high volume web presences.

About dotCMS
* Support staffed by Engineers – whether users need help with backend functions, creating pages, or configuring dotCMS on their servers, inquiries are answered by engineers – and typically the ones who built the product. dotCMS Technology dotCMS was built using the category-leading technologies that guide J2EE development. It is database agnostic and can run on PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL or Oracle. dotCMS can also be integrated with user’s authentication schemes, such as Active Directory or LDAP, and will support operation in a clustered or load balanced environment. It leverages a number of standards based open source projects such as: * Apache Tomcat – Industry Standard JSP/Servlet Container * JBOSS – Application Server and Enterprise Cache * Liferay Enterprise Portal – Open-source portal, which has since introduced its own CMS system * Apache Struts – Web Application Framework * DWR – Java AJAX framework * Spring – the Spring Application Framework * Hibernate ORM – Object Relation Mapping Engine * Velocity Templating Language – Lightweight templating engine * Velocity Tools Project – Expose tools and widgets to velocity templates * Lucene Search Engine – Mature and robust java search engine. * TinyMCE – Cross platform WYSIWYG The Velocity + Struts front end makes dotCMS easy to extend and build upon, and Eclipse IDE is dotCMS’s in-house development platform. Because dotCMS uses Hibernate to abstract all data access, the resulting code is extremely portable across databases. For users with specific customized needs, the dotCMS could also be made to work with other relational databases such as SAP db, Informix or DB2. dotCMS Software Highlights dotCMS Enterprise Edition * Multisite management that allows users to centrally control internet, extranet, and portal content, as well as the ability to publish to multiple clustered servers.
