Online Content Management - Immediate Site Publishing with CoolCMS

Content Management for today's online world

The first impression of a company at their website is important and reflects the perceived value of their products or services. To maintain this effective corporate presence online it is important to react quickly and publish new information with the minimum of fuss or delay.

Our "New Generation" fully Online Content Management fulfils this need and brings the power of content management to the smaller SME sector as well as larger business. Online Content Management is a step forward putting businesses firmly in control of their sites. Not only is it more convenient to use, OCM has brought CMS within budget for all. It is no longer the preserve of the "big players".

Take control of your website
Close the loop in keeping your website fresh. Make updates directly to the site without the delay of using 3rd party web companies to do each change. Make key staff responsible for individual site pages so that they contribute information directly. The site is now the immediate publishing media to keep your customers informed.

Solve website management costs
Reduce the costs of having dedicated personnel for day to day site management. Reduce the cost to your business due to inaccurate prices and information being online. Staff time can be wasted if the customer refers to out-of-date information. All this leads to greater efficiency and tighter budgets.

Disabled Access - DDA compliant site rendering (DDA legislation started Oct 2004)
Dual output from a single content entry. Your site can retain all the visual layout intended for most visitors and in addition CoolCMS provides separate site output for disabled users with all the information but none of the restrictions of fixed layout and font sizes. This means one content entry displays for both audiences freeing your site design from trying to be "Jack of all trades and master of none".
