Content Management Features
Discussion Board
If ideas are important to your business, then a Discussion Board may be just
the thing for you. A conversation takes place on
the board, with views and ideas from different people arranged in a
threaded and easily accessible format. People can rate ideas, and at
anytime you can see the complete conversation to date.
This is a valid alternative to email. Threading of topics
keeps relevant points together, regardless of the number of contributors, or
time frame of entries.
Document Management System
Store your important documents online where all your clients or staff can see
them, setting access privileges as you choose. Store your
documents by category or sort by date or title. Any Company's Process
Library could be stored in the system in this way.
Email Forms
Ever wanted to have people fill in a form and it gets sent to your email?
Well with email forms you can have such simple things as a Contact Us page
- through to Room Reservations or Event Bookings. You could even get people to
apply for jobs or a quote online.
Event Calendar
You can publish a list of important events or holidays. You
can even create a booking calendar so that sales staff can see what
dates might be available for the installation staff to attend a customer's
premises.
Multiuser Database Engine
Behind the Content Management System is a powerful database engine. This
database is a SQL based server and can be used to also provide a multiuser
database for your business.
You may use the database to store large amounts of information on
clients, products or the like. Various reports can then be created to
make best use of this information.
All the information can be accessed only by those with
clearance, through the User Security the system provides.
News
Add recent news and events to your site. This is a great way to get people
coming back to see what is currently happening in your business or
industry.
Up-to-date news is also a good way to indicate an active and current
website. People will trust your website and content more if they know
it is regularly reviewed. How many times have you looked at a website and it is
clearly many years out of date - what did you think about the website then?
Photo Album
A place where you can store and view photos. You can easily upload your
images and the system will create small thumbnails for you. You can
quickly scan through all the photos on file and then click the ones you want to
see enlarged.
Polls
Simple polls (a one question multiple choice answer survey) are a great way
to monitor the likes and dislikes of your website visitors. Over a period of
time you can build a very effective picture of your potential customers by
asking a new question each month and seeing the results.
This is a great way to perform your own market research.
Search Engine Friendly Pages
Our Content Management Systems use Search Engine friendly pages. This means
your website content is displayed in such a way that the Search Engines
(like Google) can find it. Found content is indexed, and indexed content
is displayed in the search engine results. Consequently, this
increases the chances of people finding your website when they are looking for
the products and services you provide.
Site Search
Search the entire site for words or phrases. This will ensure when
people are at your site, the have the maximum chance of finding the right
information quickly and easily.
SQL Database
Reporting with Drill Down
You can actually access any other SQL database from your website. An
interface between your website and other databases can be setup to provide
instant data access directly from your website. You can even drill down on the
data.
Surveys
You can create simple (or very complex) online surveys, with multiple
questions and answers.
User
Security
With our Content Management System you can create and control public and
private areas on your website. All pages can be setup with access
privileges for editing and for viewing.
This can be used as a Corporate Intranet; you can have a special Client Login
to provide information and services directly to your clients; you can ensure
people are logged in before they access content. You select these
privileges.
