Things to Remember Before Choose Web CMS

About Web CMS Web CMS has become popular to build dynamic websites. Once you ready to get a CMS driven website, you need to choose a perfect CMS as per your buiseness requirements.

If your work can be done by a simple CMS with less functionality, then there is no need to buy an enterprise level CMS. We suggest you to take a look at points mentioned here, before choose Web CMS.

Vendor

Vendor First of all, you need to choose CMS Vendor. CMS vendor must be professional, provide seamless support & use latest technology for regular updates with improvements, ensure website's security, have reputed clients. There is one more thing you should remember, that is time taken by the vendor to deploy the CMS or mobe the content of your existing site to your new CMS site.

CMS Should Fit Your Requirements

CMS Should Fit Your Requirements You have to clear about the basic functionality you need from a CMS & defined set of requirements. You should also consider your future requirements, vision & goals as you are going use CMS for the next few years. You must consider your business primary function. The requirements of an enterprise would vary from the requirements of an eCommerce business.

Look for the editor, its features & how much control it allows over the appearance of your website.

Proper Management of all media files is important. Check editing tools for them and whether you can attach files. And check how they displayed to the site visitors.

Website must have search functionality. Also you have to check for it's indexing, search speed, ranking, customization etc.

User-friendliness

User-friendliness CMS must be user-friendly & operated without much technical knowledge. It should be flexible & allow continuous updates without the help of any professional. A non-technical person should be able to use it easily.

User Interaction

User Interaction In case of the requirement of feedback form on your website, your CMS should support that. If you need an interactive website, than you should also know about the tools that are there to communicate & interact with customers.

User Roles & Permissions

User Roles & Permissions If you have many administrators, you might require setting user roles and permissions. Some users might only require editing, while some users might require publishing on your website. To cater to this need, you will have to look for CMS that supports multiple roles, specially if you are an enterprise.

Standardized Back-end

Standardized Back-end A CMS should have standardized back-end to provide a good user experience. The features (like edit, view, delete etc.) as well as the UI (including check-boxes, radio-buttons) should be standard and remain same across all the sections of the CMS.

Extra & Unnecessary Features

Extra & Unnecessary Features If you want a simple website, than you don't require any fancy and sophisticated features that you find in an enterprise CMS. Select CMS that offers all features you want, not that offers the maximum features.

Customization

Customization You have to choose a CMS that allows you to customize as per your requirement & choices. A CMS which provides you the flexibility to put your own ideas & innovate them, allowing you to design your site according to your creativity is a perfect CMS.

Multiple Website Support

Multiple Website Support If you are an enterprise or a growing business you might require multiple websites. A different website for say a different product or service or a different website for a different country you are operating in or a different mobile optimized website specially for your smart phone users. So, you need to see whether a CMS supports managing and running multiple websites or not.

Multilingual Support

Multilingual Support This again is important to have if you have your branches across different countries of the world or different language speaking countries. If not now, may be in future you might think of expanding and targeting foreign countries. So this feature is equally important to have in a CMS.
