Decentralized maintenance.

Typically based on a common web browser. Edit anywhere, anytime. Bottlenecks removed. Designed with non-technical content editors in mind.

People with average knowledge of word processing can create the content easily. No HTML skills required. Configurable access restrictions.

Users are assigned roles and permissions that prevent them from touching content in which they are not authorized to

change. Consistency of design is preserved.

Because content is stored separate from design, the content from all authors is presented with the same, consistent

design.

Navigation is automatically generated.Menus are typically generated automatically based on the database content and links will not point to nonexistent

pages. Content is stored in a database.

Central storage means that content can be reused in many places on the website and formatted for multiple devices

(web browser, mobile phone/WAP, PDA, printer). Dynamic content.

Extensions like forums, polls, shopping carts, search engines, news management are typically drop-in modules. A

good CMS also allows for truly user defined extensions.
