CORPORATE WEBSITE


InsiteCreation 2008’s channel-based model makes it ideal for deployment across complex, multi-department corporations.

Typically, corporate websites need to fulfil a range of internal and external communication needs. External communications may include marketing, direct sales, product support, investor and media liaison and public relations functions. Internally, the website may circulate information between departments, provide technical support and procedural documentation, circulate employee newsletters, and so forth.

Channel-based access control makes it easy to provide varying levels of restriction for content ranging from publicly available marketing materials to sensitive internal documents.

Key benefits at a glance:


• Channels can be mapped directly to departments, divisions or teams, making the structure of the website and the organization of users clear and intuitive.


• Multiple members’ areas enable a visitor’s experience to be tailored to his or her individual needs.



CORPORATE DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT


More than just a web content management system, InsiteCreation 2008 can be used to circulate any kind of digital file to stakeholders both within and outside of a corporation. While some documents, such as PDF product brochures, are clearly for general distribution, other files are best distributed only to particular groups. For example, you might want to allow all your accounting staff access to certain financial records, without allowing them to see the security project being developed in IT, and vice versa.

InsiteCreation 2008 is designed to make document management as simple and transparent as possible, minimising administration time as well as oversights that can lead to security breaches.

• Version management: InsiteCreation 2008 can store previous document versions, enabling users to revert to a previous version if required.
• Documents are not stored in the database: Documents may be stored anywhere on the server, simplifying the deployment and maintenance of the content management system.
