Which CMS Is Right For You?

AtreNet has experience working with a broad range of CMS solutions. We can implement a content management solution within an existing site infrastructure, or as a fundamental component of a new site launch. We will work with you to fully synthesize your requirements and content management processes and then define a solution that best fits your enterprise. The final solution, depending on your needs, may result in a site driven by an enterprise CMS, a portal technology, or scripted/static pages. We may even consider a hybrid approach which adds dynamic content in key, frequently updated areas of your site.

AtreNet leverages a set of selection criteria borne out of our experience in implementing and maintaining dozens of content management systems. We can offer strategies for delivery technologies complementary to the infrastructure and systems already in place at your site, ensuring minimal upfront investment and low long-term costs.

Interwoven® TeamSite

We specialize in the customization of TeamSite to optimize maintenance and translation workflows for complex, multi-site, multi-language global web properties. We have developed tools and processes to streamline the integration of translation vendors, facilitate in-region review, synchronize global content updates with full regional control, and deliver reports that tell you how faithfully each global site's content matches the corporate sources.

We keep learning curves short by embedding the tools directly into TeamSite, empowering your content managers to orchestrate global content delivery with precisely targeted translations. We maximize the automation of translation workflows and synchronization of content, and minimize effort at all stages, from content source, to final review and go-live. Our goal is to cut staff time required to review and approve new content, drop off and pick up translations, and manage localized versions of core corporate content.

Our deep understanding of the underlying structures of the template and workflow systems allow us to build key customizations to improve process flow through all points of the content lifecycle without impacting usability or upgradability of the TeamSite system.

Sitecore® and Microsoft® SharePoint

In some cases Microsoft® SharePoint or Sitecore® may be more suitable. AtreNet has experience with implementing both solutions for customers who require robust content management that can be integrated and deployed into existing .NET infrastructure. Clients may also appreciate the security of choosing these broadly used and supported solutions. AtreNet is a Sitecore® Certified Specialist.

DotNetNuke and Drupal

Some clients may appreciate the flexibility and cost-effective appeal of open source solutions such as DotNetNuke and Drupal. Drupal's heritage as a solution for building community websites makes it a desirable solution for websites that feature blogging, community features, or time-sensitive news updates. AtreNet has experience successfully developing and deploying both DotNetNuke and Drupal for mid-size commercial websites and web portals with limited content contributors.

Value-Added Implementation Services

We develop structured but flexible CMS environments, including features such as staging/preview environments, straightforward workflows that support existing businesses processes, and robust content deployment configurations. We simplify and streamline publishing through the use of native CMS capabilities whenever possible, and through customized extensions when necessary.

We maximize the value of CMS investments by aligning our templates, content grouping, and interactive designs with the primary features of the CMS. When a CMS supports strong separation of presentation and content, we maximize the use of templates and keep the content as clean as possible. When a CMS offers simplified one-click publishing we support that valuable capability with a staging/preview area and workflows ensuring proper approvals before the changes are made live. When distributed publishing is a key feature, we develop templates and libraries of shared objects to eliminate redundant work and ensure global consistency. Our experience is that the ideal configuration and deployment is different for each CMS, and for the specific environment it supports, and we strive to build towards that ideal.

We have the experience and depth of technical knowledge to ensure that your CMS project is successful, timely, and tuned to your specific needs. Contact us today to get started.
