Mobile Content
ShadoGCMS has a powerful but simple templating and themes engine which enables the same content to be easily displayed or repurposed for different devices. When a site is being developed the mobile theme can be developed and rules put in place to display selected content in a mobile browser.
Available via Software as a Service or Download / Install
ShadoGCMS is available as a downloadable install or via our Software as a Service platform. It is also possible to OEM the core technology. For downloadable version you can chose to use Adobe ColdFusion ( which has an additional cost) or Railo (open source CFML engine) as the underlying application server.
The Software as a Service platform is delivered via the Amazon Elastic Cloud infrastrucutre and and be hosted on either US or European based servers.
Super Easy to Use
The success of a Content Management System deployment often hinges on how easy it is for non-technical users to use and adopt the system. ShadoCMS has a site tree that delivers a big picture, multi-functional, view of the site enabling non-technical users to easily complete multiple tasks in one screen. The structure of a ShadoCMS content-driven site is based on the notion of sections, pages and containers. This concept makes it easy for users to intuitively understand where their content is being created and how it will be displayed on the site. Combining this with task orientated menu options and in context editing, ShadoCMS enables you to gain rapid adoption of the system in your organisation.
Multilingual Marketing and SEO
Search rankings (despite the hype of social media) remain one of the primary ways people find what they are looking for on the web and is a major factor in determining if someone can find your website. SEO has traditionally been heavily US and (by default) Google centric. However the emerging markets are fast becoming the growth engine of the gloabl economy and search companies search engines such as Baidu, Naver and Yandex can no longer be ignored at the expense of having a Google centric strategy.
The core principles of SEO are broadly similar across most search engines and we have developed the SEO module in Shado to enable companies to execute their search strategy through the one platform.
