WordPress or Joomla? Battle of the Open Source CMS for Your Small Business
Adoption and deployment of your open source CMS is better suited as a one-time process, so do your research and choose wisely. Of course you can always switch systems, but your business processes will be better managed if you don’t waste any time dabbling in different software systems.
As a small business owner, your CMS needs can be met with an Open Source CMS platform. So Joomla and WordPress are both optimal choices for your business. However, depending on your needs one may boost your success more than the other. It is important to create a checklist of what you want from your CMS solution. For example, if you require a solution that isn’t heavily dependent on an IT department, WordPress may be the solution for you. WordPress’ platform is designed to be intuitive and requires little coding knowledge to operate. If you desire a fully functioning, multi-purpose solution then Joomla might be your ideal Open Source CMS Solution.
For the IT savvy businesses, Joomla is highly recommended as an open source cms. Depending on website interaction and how deep you want to dip your toes in the sea of not-so-basic coding, Joomla is a great choice. Just be sure to find a hosting service that is Joomla-friendly, before implementation. If you use Joomla Hosting to power your website, you can install the open source CMS in one click. Efficiency is an important offering in business software, since time = money.
Joomla has empowered many small business to run efficiently from Community-based portals to ecommerce sites. Joomla CMS is also one of the most popular open source CMS on the market. The company has also garnered an award as the Open Source CMS, shouldn’t you trust your business operations with the best?

Indiana University Chooses KnowledgeLake to Implement a SharePoint Document Management Solution
St. Louis, MO (Vocus/PRWEB) February 07, 2011
KnowledgeLake, provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions exclusively for Microsoft SharePoint, today announced plans to deploy a SharePoint enterprise document management solution for Indiana University (IU).
KnowledgeLake will provide IU’s first university-wide document management system, and by using its solutions to convert paper documents to a central electronic document repository, IU will improve both its effectiveness and efficiency. The university hopes to complete the conversion process before relocating its Bloomington-based central IT workforce to a new facility, thereby reducing labor, decreasing required storage space, and shrinking its ecological footprint.
“As our IT workforce prepares to move to a new state-of-the-art facility, we are embracing a new way of working that will be a model for the knowledge-age worker,” said Indiana University Deputy CIO Laurie G. Antolovic. ”Our partnership with KnowledgeLake will help us to streamline decades-old processes, increase our efficiencies, and increase our financial and environmental stewardship.”
IU made the strategic decision to deploy SharePoint after seeking a platform that provided an easy-to-use interface, metadata tagging automation, and workflow management. The university’s decision to couple the collaboration software with KnowledgeLake’s document-capture and imaging products ensures a streamlined solution for the quick and secure storage and retrieval of documents from multiple sources.
“A strategic investment in a document management solution leveraging SharePoint provides a significant ROI for educational institutions looking to streamline paper-intensive processes,” said Mark Oman, National Sales Director (North America), KnowledgeLake, Inc. “Implementing a document imaging and workflow solution can improve student and staff satisfaction, reduce operating costs, and increase productivity.”
The partnership with KnowledgeLake will make an immediate impact on the university’s SharePoint implementation, and signals a major step towards the end of paper workflows and storage at Indiana University. “KnowledgeLake allows Indiana University to quickly bring our users into a centrally leveraged personal and group document handling environment, freeing the resources currently devoted to disparate electronic document storage,” said Duane Schau, director of Leveraged Support within the university’s central IT organization. “Together we’re changing how the university works.”
About the KnowledgeLake ECM Solution
KnowledgeLake develops document imaging related products and solutions for Microsoft SharePoint. KnowledgeLake extends the ECM capabilities of SharePoint, enabling businesses to reduce mailing costs, streamline operations, and achieve regulatory compliance using familiar Microsoft products that most businesses already own and use. KnowledgeLake products and solutions are deployed globally in thousands of organizations in many different horizontal and vertical industry sectors including public sector, healthcare, financial services, transportation and more.

ClknGo Software Corporation Relaunches Fizziebooks.com
Thousand Oaks, CA — November 29, 2005 –-
ClknGo Software Corporation (“ClknGo”), a leader in Embedded Software Development and Content Management Software (CMS), announced the relaunch of Fizziebooks.com.
“We are extremely pleased with the final design of Fizziebooks.com and how easy it was to integrate our Fizzi™ CMS with an off-the-shelf website template,” stated Howard Young, President of ClknGo.
“One of the biggest hurdles any business faces when updating their website or creating one from scratch is choosing the design. We took a professionally designed off-the-shelf template and demonstrated how to integrate it with a CMS.
“This benefits the business three ways. One, the cost of templates are often under 0 saving you thousands in designer fees; two, you’ll know exactly what the site will look like before its designed.
“The third benefit is the business will get an eye-appealing functional website backed with a CMS making it easy to add new content without going back to the designer for modifications.”
Fizzi technology is not limited to ClknGo’s CMS. Fizziebooks.com demonstrates a seamless integration with WordPress. “Blogs are an effective communication tool that all businesses should incorporate into their sites. With Fizzi technology, ClknGo can integrate a Blog into existing designs,” added Young.
