Our approach to owning and managing a modern website is a little different to other companies.

Even today most websites are based on traditional web designers’ technical methods. By using these methods they sell a web content management system that they say can be used by non-technical people.

However, what lies beneath are the same old technology and the same old skills. Most systems require several servers, including development servers, staging servers for proofing and testing, database servers and live servers. In other words it’s very technical - and these types of systems require technical staff to install and maintain the system.

Traditional Content Management Systems (CMS) tend to use templates to control the adding of content. Templates are restrictive in that a user can only enter text or pictures where the template allows you to. You can have many templates, but flexibility is still limited. Who creates these templates? You guessed it, a technical person, with Web design skills. Therefore you need web skills in your IT department, or access to them. Either way, it’s another cost.

Traditional web CMS contain little or no business functionality, concentrating on just providing a method to put content onto a web site.

Enterprise content management systems (ECM) are much larger, business functionality driven and expensive; having started out as document management systems or records management systems that have had content management features added to them.

eVolve is not designed by a web company. eVolve is not a wrapper around old technology. eVolve is the product of a software company. eVolve is a hosted application suite that looks, feels and operates like a web site, but the similarity ends there.

From its inception eVolve has been designed from the user's perspective, delivering incredible power in an easy to use application.

It puts YOU the website owner in complete control of every element of your site - but don't panic, we are always on hand to guide and support you if required.
