Content creation
After logging onto the website on a browser the editor sees an easy-to-use authoring tool, designed to work like Word.
It provides a non-technical way of creating new pages or updating content, without having to know any HTML.
Simple drag and drop features allow you to manage the structure of the site without breaking any links.
This means you can edit the menus and sub menus, rename pages and add pages very easily.
By providing a simple tool for maintaining the site, authoring can be done regularly.
You can save time and phone calls to the programmer or designer.
Different employees can have different rights to edit only certain pages.
