What Your CMS Says About You

Aug 11, 2011 1:06 PM

Adweek included a pretty cool infographic in an article published earlier this week entitled The Trouble With Back-Ends. Under the heading “What Your CMS Says About You” they profiled some of the leading CMS platforms along with some generalizations about the types of users for each. Of course, as with any stereotype, there’s often truth in those generalizations.

We’re pleased, of course, that Crowd Fusion was shown as an innovative, early adopter platform. But more important than that was the accompanying article. The author, Erin Griffith, points out two conflicting trends: first, that publishing platforms are becoming more essential – both to traditional publishers and to brands; and second, that legacy systems, whether built in-house or licensed from traditional vendors, are not equipped to manage the multitude of platforms and devices required for reaching your markets.
