The CMS built for Designers to implement!!!

The power of the ciSUITE: Content Engine is about to become available to designers and design-conscious developers from around the world to build flexible Content Managed websites for their clients and employers.

After recently celebrating its 5th birthday (with continual R&D efforts helping it to grow up quickly), we have decided it was about time ciSUITE: got out into the world to help other web designers and developers to deploy Content Managed websites with ease.

The ciSUITE: Content Engine is a rapid-deployment, design-centric CMS engine that can take a "flat" website and turn it into a fully content-managed dynamic website in a handful of hours, without having to be a "code warrior" and without the need to shoehorn your precious design into a pre-determined framework like most other Content Management Systems.

Within our organisation, we have been using the ciSUITE: rapid-deployment framework for years to create CMS-driven websites. Typically, we can turn an approved "flat" HTML website into a dynamic website in well under a day without compromising the original design.

Beat that Joomla!, Typo3, Mambo, Drupal, and all your friends!!!!

Implementing a CMS website Powered by ciSUITE: couldn't be easier ...

1. Install the ciSUITE: engine on your server following a few simple steps (copy the files, set up a database, and fill in the blanks on the installer page).
   
2. Make templates for later use by taking your existing "flat" design of each page/section and marking it up with special "asset tags" (simple code copied into parts of your page's HTML source code).
3. Create the first new pages using the templates you created earlier.
4. Add any form processing and other "special" functionality as you normally would to complete the site (either using the pre-existing modules or use your own PHP code).
5. Go live with the site and give your client admin access to take over from there.
   

If you, or your employer, needs to design and create CMS-driven websites, contact us for more information about how you can license the "Powered by ciSUITE:" system and implement sites yourself for a fraction of the cost that you would on-charge to your client.

Why use ciSUITE:, a commercial CMS you have to pay for instead of an open source CMS ?

Easy ... Our ciSUITE: CMS is better and more targeted towards rapid-deployment and ultimate design flexibility than any of the open source CMS's on the planet. Put simply, unless you design "cookie cutter" websites that all look alike, you can build more sites that suit your clients Powered by ciSUITE: than any other CMS.

So, it makes sense that if you can build more CMS sites in less time, you can make more profit even if you have to pay a relatively small license fee.
