Content Management Matters ™

TERMINALFOUR is having a very busy month -- perhaps nothing unusual for the WCM vendor -- but definitely worth noting. Along with securing seven new university contracts, sponsoring the eduWEB Conference 2008 in Atlantic City and attending the The Institutional Web Management Workshop this month, they have also appointed a new COO focused on expanding the company.

CMSWire brought you news last September of TERMINALFOUR's updated ECM solution: Site Manager 6.0. With a new multilingual interface and over 50 enhancements which included compliance with the JSR 170 specification, this company seemed to be hinting strongly that they had big plans on the horizon.

Hoping to reinforce Ireland's new reputation as a technology superpower, TERMINALFOUR releases an updated version of their ECM product with the goal of meeting the multilingual interface needs of ever-expanding global enterprises.

We've said for awhile now that the European CMS market is cluttered with a menagerie of small and mid-sized contenders. Overall, however, it awaits the arrival of a real rallying gem.

To gauge whether a vendor meets that higher call, we can typically look at the impact it's made on both enterprise and education.

Enterprise-wise, Ireland-based ECM firm TERMINALFOUR showed some classy color with Site Manager 5.3. And now it's making waves in the latter category, too.

TERMINALFOUR announces the release of Site Manager 5.3, which builds on Site Manager's versatile capabilities with the input of customers via user groups and conferences.

Unlike other enterprise CMS solutions like SpikeSource and Oracle ECM, which place great weight on document and records management, TERMINALFOUR Site Manager 5.3 focuses on web-ready image quality and cleaner content.
