CMS, an abbreviation for Content Management System, is, in simple terms, a kind of powerhouse for managing the content of your website. It is an administrative environment through which you publish posts on your site, control SEO, and generally determine how the page will look and function in the online environment.
CMS is translated as content management system, which is the most accurate definition of this essential element of every website that displays dynamic content. This means content that is lively, variable, where new posts will be added, and where you can insert articles, images, or videos.
CMS serves as a kind of gateway for your content onto the actual pages seen by visitors. It simplifies content manipulation and allows for its quick and flexible management.
It will be useful, for example, for companies that frequently update content on their websites, such as through a blog. It can also be beneficial for bloggers, artists managing dynamic portfolios, various electronic bulletin boards with updated content, or community websites. It is virtually essential for news websites.
A content management system utilizes a user-friendly interface that allows content manipulation.
Users can add text, images, videos, and other elements using simple tools and forms. The CMS stores this information and automatically generates web pages based on the specified parameters.
Advantages of CMS:
According to functionality and focus, we distinguish several types of CMS.
These include, for example:
Recently, open-source Strapi has gained worldwide popularity for its high customizability and ability to meet most of your requirements. Kentico, a Czech platform, is regarded as a professional tool for managing corporate content, especially noted for its enhanced functionality level known as DXP (Digital Experience Platform). This represents a higher developmental tier beyond traditional CMS, incorporating a range of specialized addons tailored for managing corporate websites.
We specialize in these two content management systems at NITTIN. According to your requirements, we are capable of creating a customized website or application tailored to your specifications.

Kentico
A professional content management platform offering what traditional CMS do, but with even greater complexity. Kentico is a Digital Experience Platform (DXP), which includes a wider range of digital tools, such as personalization.
