Content management

Communicating changes quickly.

Successful websites evolve in line with organisational and marketing-led change ' special offers, press releases, event programs, for example. With Cubeworks, you choose how to update your website:

• A content management system (CMS) which hands control over to you and your staff, or
• A maintenance contract in which we take care of updates for you.

Here's how the two options compare

1. Your own content management system (CMS)

This is the ideal solution if your need to update web content arises frequently, or where content originates from several people, office locations or data sources. A CMS allows you to control exactly who can update which sections of your site allowing content to be added by your own staff at any time from any location. Furthermore, you'll enjoy:

• Low maintenance costs. Users become empowered, removing the burden on your IT department. Your users will require no new software, just an internet connection,
• Consistent identity. CMS templates separate content from the look and feel of your site. This also makes rebranding simple, quick and cost effective.
• Flexibility. You can extend your content and readily add new features.

The technical benefits are also compelling:

• Your website becomes centrally manageable. Booking systems, contact databases, image files etc. can be aggregated into one central repository.
• Your content becomes easily syndicated. Because content is separated from the templates, it can be distributed to families of websites and made available on additional platforms such as mobile/WAP and PDA without re-entry or re-formatting.

In other words, a cost effective, easy-to-use system for your staff, full control over your website and  - most importantly  - an enhanced experience for your web visitors and users. This means increased repeat visits and strengthened customer loyalty.

Choose a CMS to match your needs and budget

Cubeworks offers a choice of two content management systems. Most suited to large organisations is the Sitecore CMS, for which we are a solution partner. We can integrate Sitecore into your website as part of our full service web marketing solution. Alternatively, we can offer our own WebAttaché CMS, developed by us to meet the needs of medium-sized organisations.

Naturally, we would be delighted to assess your needs, demonstrate both systems and help you to decide on the right CMS for you.

2. Cubeworks maintenance contract

If your need to update your site is less frequent, we'll design a flexible maintenance contract around your individual requirements. Based on your projected requirements we'll agree a cost / time analysis. This enables you to then pre-purchase our time. When you need content changed or updated on your website, simply contact us and we'll make the changes.
