About Content Management Systems (CMS) and E-commerce


CMS software can support internal assets only, web content only, ecommerce architecture, or any combination. A content management system is built as a central repository, which holds all content, metadata, accessibility and workflow rules, and supporting information. Organizations that establish processes and disciplines around these systems can ensure smooth and efficient acquisition, maintenance, delivery, and archiving of corporate content resources.

Some CMS software systems integrate with CRM and e-commerce tools. E-commerce solutions allow businesses to sell their goods over the Internet.
