Content Management Systems
A Content Management System, or CMS, is the organisational tool which controls the content in a website.

Off-the-shelf Content Management can be cost-effective for the initial setup of a website. However, it can also limit design of the website and scope for future development. Furthermore, these white label CMS' will not be utilising the latest technology and let's be realistic - technology moves at a fast pace.
To understand the difference in value between bespoke and off-the-shelf CMS is the difference between a business having a website which works or one which needs a rebuild in six months time.
Whilst an off the shelf CMS may appear cheaper in the short term, this often can be a false economy. Off the shelf CMS' by their very nature would have been developed over a period of time. In order to recoup this development cost the same system would need to be resold time and time again. website programming and website accessibility advance at such an exponential rate that it conceivable that by the time an off the shelf content management system is released, it may already be using out of date and inappropriate technology.
DUSZA will thoroughly research your needs through our website scoping procedure, including whether or not having a CMS would be of benefit to your company and it's website. If your website rarely requires updating, supplying DUSZA the information to update could be more efficient and cost-effective - and there would be no need to purchase a CMS at all.
However, if your business relies on keeping your clients updated with new information, a CMS could prove invaluable. When considering a CMS we also take into account that editing and updating content can help increase search engine rankings with Google, Yahoo and MSN.
DUSZA's CMS' are built to order with no redundant code, all our Content Management Systems are designed to look and feel like your public facing website - because we believe they should be as user friendly as the public facing side of your website and designed to the level that you would expect. A good CMS can streamline your work flow and empower you and your company to take ownership of your website.
