Choosing a Web Content Management System
Choosing an enterprise-class web content management system can be a daunting task-the veritable smorgasbord of vendors, products and implementation partners often leads to justified confusion. We offer Choosing a Web Content Management System as a guide to this well-charted but untamed environment.
In this document, we share key tips from NLC's sought-after Enterprise Content Management Group, including:
- The fundamental truths about CMS selection and implementation projects
- Guidance on creating effective, true-to-life content management scenarios capable of evaluating the nuances of various CMS products
- An exhaustive list of questions for potential vendors about the "fine print" details, including software licensing, implementation services, training and technical support
- An outline of the progressive stages of an implementation project, along with realistic estimates of the time needed to complete each stage
- The four questions to ask any implementation partner before awarding a contract
At the most fundamental level, successful selection and implementation of a CMS is dependent on your ability to define, understand and clearly articulate your needs and goals for the content management technology, as well as your online presence. This strategy document will help you get there.
