Content Management made real for 80% of the business users at 20% of the cost.

eGanesha LLC launches another Web Tool for its 80/20 product line. eGanesha, a newly formed Web Development firm introduced a Business User friendly content management solution this week to five beta partners. The product FastWeb was designed to satisfy 80% of the content management problems for 20% of the price of the current products on the market. This product is a written in Java for portability and conforms to current XML standards. It is designed for the typical corporate presence site, which requires updating frequently without the complexity of a full-blown database driven solution. FastWeb enabled pages allow the business user to update content immediately without the risk of modifying page layout properties. Even using HTML editors creates the risk of damaging layout properties, which are not seen until published. Complete versioning is supported as well as staging. Several beta partners are using the product for localization. The tool is appropriate for remote translation as well as creating WAP and Sight Impaired sites. Insertion of XML tags is done with a Plug in for most professional HTML editors.

Scott Michelson , Marketing Director of the design firm Methodologie, stated, content management is the Trojan Horse of todays graphically rich corporate sites." FastWeb allows the designer to concentrate on the look and feel and leave the content where it belongs -- domain experts and copy writers"

This product is priced under $20,000 per site license. Pricing varies for Professional Design Firms and Application Service Providers. This product evolved from the frustrations of launching Dot-Coms in the robust Seattle market. The typical Dot-Com not only has a product or service to deliver but must keep its corporate site fresh. Dedicating HTML editors to the task of updating your site weekly is very expensive. The ROI of this product is measured in terms of weeks.
