Content Management.


Organisations today recognise that having the right Web content is a valuable asset – and being able to leverage that content for different audiences and purposes is no longer just a nice to have, it’s critical to business success.

To achieve this requires far more than just Web content management – what’s needed is an integrated enterprise Content Management System (CMS) that manages all of the content for all of the required delivery channels that organisations require – which means not just the Web, but also PDA/mobile devices, WAP phones, Flash (e.g., for Plasma screen), print and e-mail.

Shado – built on core CMS functionality

Shado is an out-of-the-box suite of Web-based applications that provides integrated enterprise CMS functionality as part of an overall solution, bringing together all of an organisations’ relevant content and information into a single browser. It puts control of information back into the hands of
the individuals who own it, and enables them to create one source of content that can be reviewed, approved and automatically shared and distributed to meet business and organisational objectives.

Shado is built on core CMS functionality and provides a comprehensive range of features which combine with an intuitive and user friendly interface to make it easy for content creators, editors and developers to create Web sites and information portals.

Design templates

Shado CMS is a page centric application. Pages can be grouped in sections with one or more sub sections, can have templates assigned to them and can include one or more content ‘Containers’, which can hold any Webpage content (such as HTML, images or text) that is to be displayed. Containers hold versions of content that provide for easy and effective content management on many levels and can be linked together within a page.

The Shado IDE allows designers and developers to create custom functionality through Shado Objects, that integrate seamlessly with the site. Options range from simple news room functions and employment modules to a complex spares catalogue or store with shopping basket.

Combining the CMS with the power of Shado Objects allows developers to further increase speed of development of an application. With no design restrictions Shado provides unlimited freedom for designers, including different looks and template options within one Site Tree. This is a simple
structure that users can easily understand and work with, regardless of individual skill set and experience with Web applications.
