"The usability of Sitecore's interface for authors and editors continues to be best in class."
Gartner, August 2009, Magic Quadrant for Web Content Management
Product Overview
Sitecore's Web Content Management System (CMS) leads the way in flexibility and scalability, so that companies can better leverage content for enhanced customer experiences and business growth. Regardless of site size or complexity, Sitecore's state-of-the-art capabilities make the creation of a compelling web experience easy.
What differentiates Sitecore as a CMS is its ability to separate content from presentation. In other CMS tools administrators must dictate the presentation style for the content as it is created. By not having to label additions as a press release, a product description, or even a graphic, you get total freedom to display content in many ways. In fact, content can even be presented in distinctly different ways depending on the type of visitor that is viewing it. Previous customers see it one way, new visitors see it another. We like to think of a Sitecore website as a dynamic library that reshuffles the shelves and books as you walk through, bringing your favorites closer.
