A content management system is used to manage the content of a website. The two basic functions of content management system are to store content in a centralized repository, and further support the workflow of a group of people engaged in putting content into that repository. It consists of two elements: the content management application (CMA) and the content delivery application (CDA). The CMA element allows the content manager to manage the modification, and removal of content from a website and CDA element compiles that information to update the website.

The features of a typical Content Management System are as follows:

Separation of content and presentation: In content management solutions entire content and all layout templates are stored in the database. At the time of publishing the web page, the content is merged with the associated layout.
User Management: Multiple back-end users can be approved access to the administrator module. To maintain security role based access is provided. The users will have access to those modules (within the administrator console) to which they have permissions.

Text Editors: We integrate a variety of WYSIWYG text editors with our solutions. The text editors make it easy for content editors to format the content. Formatting tools and HTML tools are provided with the editors. The HTML tools enable the content editors to insert HTML tags in the content.
