Content Management System (CMS)

A Content Management System (CMS) is software that allows one to create, manage, and modify digital content without coding knowledge. It simplifies website management by providing easy tools to publish content online.

  • Web Content Management Systems: We use this CMS to build website. Example: WordPress, Joomla.
  • Enterprise Content Management Systems: It allows to manage business documents and workflows. Example: SharePoint.
  • Digital Asset Management Systems: It allows to organize, store, and retrieve digital assets, including images, videos, audio files, documents, and other types of digital content. Example: Bynder, Filecamp, Air, Ci Media Cloud, Canto, Acquia DAM etc.
  • ResourceSpace for customization Component Content Management Systems: Manage content in small reusable chunks, often used in technical documentation.

WordPress is easy to use compared to Joomla and Dhupal. It is much more begginer friendly CMS. Do not get confused between WordPress.org and wordpress.com. They are not same at all.
