Advantage Travel: Content Management (Shado).

When looking for a solution that offered long term business benefit Advanatge Travel found Shado that product of choice.

“The Shado solution is so powerful and flexible that Advantage can create bespoke own-brand Intranets for its members that can be underpinned with all of the relevant commercial information and security,” said Bill Taylor. “This level of personalisation was a key reason for choosing to work with Straker, Their people showed us examples of their work in education, where Shado had been used to provide different logins and screens to administrators, lecturers and students. We could relate that easily to our own requirement for member profiles.”

Monochrome and Shado emerged as the ‘dream team’. Future proofing was the main driver when selecting Shado to power the new intranet, according to Taylor. “We wanted a solution that could be used to create and manage not just the intranet, but also future internal and external Web sites that might develop. We wanted control of our own destiny and to train our own people to use the solution, rather than be tied in to outsourcing. By combining our internal IT skills with Monochrome’s design and development skills and Straker technology, we realised we could build anything we wanted.”
