Simple CMS converting from IBM Websphere solution
Most User Friendly CMS in the Market
CHALLENGE
Essential Energy had an aging website and CMS built in 2006. Their aim was to enable a content management solution that their marketing department can manage the website effectively. They do not wish to rely on a technical team to make marketing and copy amendments on their websites. Above all, Essential Energy wanted to have a CMS that can be expensed as capital without limitations of annual and seat licensing fees.
SOLUTION
What Essential Energy experienced is not new to many of Alpha Salmon’s clients. Committing to a poorly suited CMS and finding out the solution didn't meet their needs. The challenge in deciding the right CMS platform, associated support and various licensing costs are common to typical product evaluation processes. Since introducing Alpha CMS to Essential Energy,the benefits below were immediately evident:
- No licensing fee
- Built on the latest .Net platform and MS SQL database
- Future proof and scalable
- Source code provision
- Open support and development
- Upgrade path
- Trusted by government and corporate enterprises
Since the website was migrated, Essential Energy decided to migrate their Essential Water and Intelligence Network websites into the Alpha CMS platform to have consistency.
RESULT
The migration process took 2 months and the result has been astounding. Essential Energy staff now feels comfortable going into their own websites to update content daily. Not only does the marketing department feel that they are now in control of their front facing digital presence, due to how easy it is to use, Essential Energy have other departments now contributing content into the websites.
