Content Management CMS System

Cuborio, the customised CMS suitable for all needs

The development of customised content management systems (CMS) is the driving force behind Cuborio, which has been designed specifically around this concept.

Customised content management systems mean customised functionality, greater security and the advantage of full ownership.

Thanks to Cuborio's CMS, you can obtain:

• Front-end website development
• Custom web development
• Content management systems
• Custom e-commerce platform development and maintenance
• Mobile app development and web frameworks for NPG web applications
• SaaS development services
• Custom API development

Sometimes, one size does not fit all. Most people are familiar with popular content management systems such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, PrestaShop, Magento, and the like.

Although these solutions may work for some applications, it is important to be aware that one size does not always fit all scenarios!

We have put together a list of frequently asked questions to discuss our custom CMS development services.

Here are some scenarios where a custom CMS would be right for you:

• Do you have security concerns or corporate security requirements that would make standard platforms unacceptable? An example of this could be strict security requirements that limit the number of software licences allowed or require such severe hardening that it inhibits the platform's ability to function properly. Also, keep in mind that standard platforms are more susceptible to random attacks from bots and other automated attackers.
• Do you need advanced features? If you plan to have a website or e-commerce site that requires advanced customisation, consider whether you are pushing the limits of standard CMS platforms. An example might be software that is critical to your business and needs to be custom-built on the Cuborio CMS platform. Future risks could include the inability to perform a proper software update or, worse, a software update that does not interact perfectly with the custom code.
• Do you want a simpler interface to design? The best part of a custom CMS is that the interface and workflows can be entirely up to you! If you manage a large team of editors or content creators, or you have a large company that requires updating by many administrators, you can choose Cuborio's "dashboard" and build your custom CMS with Cuborio around that. This is something that is very difficult with many open source platforms.
• You need to have a proprietary website or e-commerce site. Remember, when you create a site with an open source CMS, you may not "own" the software. For example, start-ups interested in future acquisitions that are based on an open source framework may have licensing issues in the future.
   

Answers to frequently asked questions about customised CMS, Cuborio®:

• Is a custom CMS risky? Not if you choose smart core technology and an experienced team to develop it, like Cuborio! Custom software can be created using the same tools that power popular systems such as WordPress, Drupal and the like. BUT one of the many differences is that the software will be 100% customised for your business, not cobbled together with third-party plugins or modules to get you close to what you need.
• Is maintenance ongoing? Anyone familiar with standard CMS systems knows that they need to be constantly updated. And sometimes, when you update, your plugins, extensions, or modules may stop working. This is the constant struggle you face during an update cycle. With Cuborio's custom software, you don't have to update the core software (PHP, MySQL, Apache, etc.) as you would with most popular open source systems, because we take care of everything. And since you don't have any unused plug-ins, you'll never have compatibility issues when you need to update your website or e-commerce platform.
• What if something unexpected happens? Remember, web developers who create a custom CMS platform for you do not use any unknown technology! They use the same languages used by millions of other sites. They simply do not use inefficient software as the basis for their work. PHP, MySQL or MongoDB, Apache and Linux can be used like any other platform. And above all, in this case, the customer actually owns the software. This means that it is up to you to do what you want with it.
• Why shouldn't I choose a CMS that is well known and used by millions of people? You may receive a Drupal recommendation from a web agency with a portfolio full of Drupal work and a WordPress proposal from an agency that develops websites in WordPress. Unfortunately, many will simply find a standard theme, reuse it as a "custom design" and then fill it with plug-ins that will reduce the stability of the platform. It is good to ask yourself a couple of questions: If you did not use platform X, what would be your second choice? How many plug-ins, modules or extensions will be used? Is the design custom or theme-based? Remember: if more agencies (and developers) were skilled at developing custom CMSs, you would have much more choice.
