Benefits of an Open Source Solution

• Reduced total cost of ownership

• Extend and customize a stable code base
• Avoid ‘vendor lock-in’. You are not tied in to a proprietary system
• Benefit from new features developed by a large developer community

Some things to consider when choosing a content management system

• What is the purpose of the system? Is the system for a large-enterprise, a non-profit organization, a small business?
• Who is going to manage the content and how often? How much training will be required?
• What features would you like to have?
• Do you require support for multiple languages?
• Scalability - would you like to add a shopping cart system in the future?
• What is the total cost of ownership and the return on investment?
• Price and license
• Will the system fit in with your current IT infrastructure?
