WCMS/DXP

 

Connect, Control, Scale

 

Digital Experience Platforms (DXP)

Digital Experience Platforms is a buzz word in today's web world. It means many different things to different people. At Avantia, we use DXPs as a way for businesses to connect with their clients, customers, suppliers and partners quicker and more efficiently. Look at any number of processes in any industry and you will find inefficiencies – places where revenue is being lost or resources are being used inefficiently. Avantia is expert at identifying those opportunities and deploying DXPs to get you back on track so you can focus on what is really important, your bottom line. No matter how technology changes or how sophisticated vendor offerings get, one thing NEVER changes—the need to align business problems with the proper technical solution! DXPs are having a profound impact on business alignment. Finding the right tool can be challenging. Avantia can help.

 

Web Content Management Systems(WCMS)

Who owns the information on your public web site or Intranet? How often should it be refreshed? Are there any corporate rules governing this information? These are all very good questions! Wrestling with web site content has been an issue since the advent of Internet technology. Historically your IT department had to make the changes and updates because it required knowledge of programming languages and the technology behind your sites. Today companies are recognizing the impact that a Web Content Management System can have on the accuracy and timeliness of information as well as efficiencies gained by putting the ability to make changes into the hands of the people or departments directly responsible for that information. However, choosing the right solution can be tricky. There are many choices in “off-the-shelf” software or you could choose to build a custom solution tailored to your needs. Avantia is experienced in helping organizations make informed decisions about their Web Content Management System investment and in the successful deployment of these systems.

Our team has worked in just about every WCMS over the years. That's just the nature of our business, and it has allowed us to experience many combinations of business scenarios and WCMS to fully understand the opportunities and potential pitfalls with each.
