CentrumCMS

Keeping your website content updated is an incessant task, something none of us like to accept but that's life. A website that never changes, has no updates or new content implies to your visitor that you and your company may be equally inactive. This in any rational chain of thought is definitely not the impression you want to give. Hence, the accepted phrase "An neglected website is worse than no website at all!"

The technicality of getting the information up there is often the issue. Sure, you know better than anyone else what you want posted so creating or finding the information to post is simple. Even throwing in a few images or video clips still doesn't hold you back. However, the problems start to arise when you send it over to your web designer only to find out that the soonest they can squeeze it in is the end of the week! It might not be the end of the world but your preference is to have it on there and then with the added bonus of no designer's fee.

So, what's the solution? Content Management Software is what your website needs.

Will CentrumCMS be right for me?

In an ideal world a CMS would be right for everyone. Although your needs can be quite different - our CMS can fit your unique needs The biggest advantage of CentrumCMS being our own development is that it can be tailored specifically to you. Therefore making it the perfect product for you. Accurate and effective, it allows your website to be unique and stand out from all the others and thats exactly what every company website should aim to achieve.

Here are a few things you'll no longer need to wait about on a designer to do:

Edit your website content

CentrumCMS allows every information page on your site to be self maintained. This means you can edit the text directly, change images, embed video clips, add user files to download and create links. Hey, if you can think of anything else let us know and we'll make it possible. You're not restricted to editing the pages we setup for you either, you can add or remove pages whenever you want and if needed move them to a different section, which you can create.

News and Blog

You are now your own publisher and have complete control over articles posted on your site. Articles carry all the usual expectations such as images, videos, links and more. There is no limit to the number of articles you add, something worth remembering as the more articles a site has the better. Search engines love crawling through your articles too, it's what they do to optimize search engine results.

Events Calendar

If you have a lot on and want your visitors to know then what you need is an online events calendar. Now your visitors know when to find you, even within minutes of you knowing your going! The events calendar allows you to create/schedule events, show optional information such as who to contact & availability if places are restricted.

Photo & media

Want everyone to see your holiday snaps and show off your superb photography skills? Or use CentrumCMS to post those important galleries of photos and give your visitors the opportunity to have a more personal insight into your companies products and services. Galleries can also be fed onto information pages allowing you to add a number of pictures neatly and tidy.

Website Stats

Something any website owner should be interested in! How many visitors and how they found your site. View your traffic reports in easy to follow bar charts from hourly, daily, monthly and even year by year breakdown. The visitor stats are an essential tool when running a marketing campaign or any other targeted campaign, you can see for yourself the effectiveness of each campaign as the visitors drop in.

Email Marketing

News, promotions, whatever your reason you can let your entire subscriber database know in seconds. You draft up your email, make it look good with a few images and have it all placed in your predefined graphical template. Click send and watch as its delivered to everyone. Our email marketing system also has spam user protection built in meaning your subscribers are people who have specifically subscribed - no stranger getting emails out the blue!

Product Library

A product library allows you to create a detailed and fully searchable product database, you can even take it further and sell your items online, read about CentrumSHOP to learn more about our online shop solutions. Whether you have a full stock file or prefer to add individual items one by one the Product Library will let your visitors know what you've got.

Custom Content and bolt-ons

As clever as CentrumCMS is, and as hard as we try, we just can't have everything created ready to use. This isn't a problem, CentrumCMS as a product and framework was designed to allow custom expansion. This means we can easily create a CMS bolt-on to fit any bill. Whether you have a very specific event entry system in mind, or a complete online extension to your own business, CentrumCMS can easily be extended to accommodate and the best bit of it is the end component will be totally bespoke to you, as its your wishes and ideas that we create.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
"When we decided to launch a new internet store we were very pleased to be on board with Centrum. From the first meeting we were put at ease about the process and all our questions were answered without any problems.
Within a few weeks of our first meeting we had our website ready to populate with products which we were very please with. Working with the content management system was a lot easier than other systems we used with previous websites. They layout is easy to work and was thoroughly explained how to us.
We love the final look of the site, It matches our company ethos of style and quality. The site is really easy for our customers to use which is paramount. Since launching we have been overwhelmed with the number of orders and enquiries we have been receiving through it and it has became another outlet for our customers as well as ourselves."
Kirsty Young
Marketing Manager, John Taylor
"Before speaking with CentrumWEB we had a website that just didn’t serve our stakeholders. There were high expectations to deliver a corporate level website that could deliver results. CentrumWEB delivered the solution that not only serves our community of riders, but makes the management of events and information a simple, straightforward task."
Peter Harrison
Northern Rock Cyclone
"CentrumWEB are one of the most professional web media companies I have worked with.
They have never missed a deadline, partly because unlike other web companies they do not start any part of a project until they thoroughly understand the objectives. Communication and progress updates are excellent."
Brian Smith
Braveheart Cycling Fund
"CentrumWEB were recommended to us by a local charity that we support. Now at the end of the development I understand why!
From consultation to design right through to implementation we were never let down. I would have no hesitation in making the same recommendation to anyone looking to implement a new web solution. The end result is a company website that I can control and influence giving me the power to drive my online presence forward. "
Donald Ritchie
Ritchies Training Centre
"Having dealt with CentrumWEB for a larger corporate project we felt that it was time to give our own tired, unmanageable website a complete upgrade, again the CentrumWEB team delivered a solution that was on time, within budget and served the needs of our members."
