| In today's world of e-Businesses, content
flow is almost as crucial as cash flow. If an enterprise cannot
refresh the information about its product on a continuous basis
then it will not be able to fulfill the today's Internet based
expectations. If any company wants to increase the content flow
without spending lots of money and with less problems then the
content management systems are chosen as a way to automate the
content gathering and delivery process. Any company or organization
will need the CMS if it meets minimum 4 requirements out of
the many listed below:
A big organization where web publishing is spread over many
places, and to communicate the content between different branches
is very time consuming. The web site of the company is big
and there are frequent updates of content or structure. The
online operation perform personalization. Very frequent content
integration between the web site and retail outlets, call
centers, email newsletters or other channels.
Strong requirement to manage specifications from R&D
to customer support Company has customers which also contribute
to the site. One individual has intimate knowledge of the
entire site (and others have intimate knowledge over their
own sections) so if there is a requirement for changes then
it is not possible to change it without the help of a specific
individual.
If the organization/company finds that it needs the Content
management system then before selecting one, organizations
must also evaluate the cost of not having a system in place.
These questions asked should be:
What are the costs associated with your content being unavailable
either through the Web site, or from your primary content
storage systems?
What is the risk of having inaccurate content on your Web
site?
How much does the insurance for that risk cost?
How do you recover and replace inaccurate content when your
Webmaster is unavailable?
