CMS stands for Content management system. CMS greatly simplify the effort to create and maintain the web site. Put in simple words, you are able to update CMS-powered web site anytime anywhere. CMS is commonly used in medium and large organisations.
The idea of SiteWise comes from our observation that only very few clinics (who using ClinicWise) have a web site. Many had bad experiences with web design companies though:
We built SiteWise CMS to address that.
Yes, of course. The purpose of SiteWise is to enable non-IT businesses to have a modern and functional web site, which is now becoming vital important to reach customers.
Your observation is right, SiteWise was initially built to help our ClinicWise customers, i.e., health clinics. The same benefits can apply to other businesses, as the technology and the purpose are the same.
However, the approach used in many CMS systems are hybrid, not fitting either type of customers. Some do this way intentionally so that they can charge the client all sorts of customisation fee.
A SiteWise web site, after setup, the most common skeleton pages are created, and the following pages are specially customised for you:
In other words, just fill in the content and the site is almost ready.
For advanced users, SiteWise CMS offers the ultimate flexibility: HTML editing and apply own style sheets.
We prefer not. As the web site design can be very subjective, the person to get what you want is yourself, or someone is close-by. While SiteWise comes with free template pages, it provide flexibility to allow users to edit web page in standard HTML and CSS. If you are too busy looking after day-to-day business operations, unable to find time learn HTML (quite easy) , I would suggest giving this tasks to your children, relative or friends. I know one customer site is maintained by the owner's 12-year old daughter.
Different from other web companies, we only hire top-class designers and programmers to provide the product serving all customers. In other words, dedicated service will not be cheap. As creating/maintaining web pages in SiteWise is using the standard web technologies, finding a trusty local IT provide might be better. Beside cost, the communication is also a important factor to consider.
Not at all. We have been releasing 'low price, high quality' products (such as TestWise, BuildWise, ClinicWise) since 2006. The reason we are able to do that is our super efficient software development practices.
Above all, there is no lock-in contracts and no any hidden charges.
We don't have the referral program for SiteWise customers yet. However, if you are our ClinicWise customer, you will receive generous discount: 50% off set up fee, 25% off monthly subscription fee.
