The Top 10 AI Tools for Small Business: From Automation to a Coordinated Team of AI Agents

Despite engaging in some pseudo-journalism within the CMS industry, I don't consider myself to be a journalist in the traditional sense. Although from the outside looking in, you probably can't tell the different. Or, you know, you probably just don't really care.
My point however, is that journalists who report on the movements of large companies and organizations seem to be receiving less material to work with, forcing them to exert more effort. As a result,<a href="http://news.isebox.net/2015-journalist-survey/" target="_blank"> a recent study has found that 68% of journalists are unhappy and overworked</a>.
Here's an infographic with all the details.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/journalist-survey-results-infographic-isebox700x0.png" />
Now, although I wouldn't class my own experiences in the exactly the same ways, I definitely see where that 68% is coming from. For sure, the above infographic doesn't perfectly reflect the reality of journalism within the world of CMS, but it does hold some weight.
However, instead of latching on to this journalism sob-story, I'd prefer to take this conversation in a more relevant direction.
So, with the eyes of CMS vendors across the world being my target, allow me to explain.
<h2>Why CMS Vendors Should Do More To Help Journalists</h2>
My role here at CMS Critic has now spanned a period of almost two years, and the quality of material given to me by some vendors (and I reiterate some, not all) has been consistently lacklustre.
Of course, I'm not talking about the quality of the actual products. I'm talking about the way in which many vendors choose to promote and portray their most recent updates to their customers as well as their go-to journalists. Here is what I humbly suggest that those vendors stop doing.
Stop the boring bullet-point lists with no additional next, stop making key announcements via a casual forum post, and stop sending out boring press releases with obscenely long quotes and “About” sections.
Instead, I would kindly urge vendors to focus more on spreading the news via company blogs, video content (which demonstrate new features), short interviews, and so forth. It's about time such announcements became engaging.
Am I saying this simply to make my own life easier? No.
My role here extends to reviewing products, <a href="/announcing-this-years-judges-for-the-2014-critics-choice-awards/" target="_blank">judging products</a>, and <a href="/cms-critic-on-tour-paris-amsterdam-basel/" target="_blank">covering conferences</a>, while CMS Critic also provides consultancy services. Because of this, I feel it necessary that I do all of that extra research mentioned in the infographic, no matter how dazzling or daunting each news update is. Whatever the case, my personal workload is unaffected.
Rather, it is in the best interests of the vendor to spend more time on the presentation of their news announcements.
It will make journalists more eager to cover the story, and customers far likely to pay attention. Not to mention, the overall brand will benefit from some more stellar marketing and outreach strategies. A win, win, win.
Those are my two cents anyway. If you need me, I'll be crying into my overworked keyboard.

Partnerships, IoT & Wearable Devices: Adobe Makes String of Announcements

Sometimes a seemingly simple CMS is only simple when it comes to the simple stuff.
But when it comes to actually modifying front-end elements and responding to mobile devices and third-party tools, many fall short in their simplicity.
<a href="http://www.surrealcms.com" target="_blank"> Surreal CMS</a>, however, is aiming to be one of the few exceptions.
Their user-friendly ethos seems to emanate from every feature, with usability in mind for an experience that is trying to be, well – simple.
<h2>Inline Editing &amp; Touch-friendly UI</h2>
Surreal CMS is geared towards users looking for a straightforward content management system, and it illustrates this brilliantly with an invitation for visitors to edit some text on their homepage.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/11111.png" alt="Surreal CMS Inline Editing" /> 
This inline editing feature found within Surreal CMS is perfect for those who are new to website design and modification. After all, pointing, clicking, editing and saving just makes a whole lot of sense.
The friendly website editing doesn't stop there though. Surreal CMS boasts a responsive, touch-friendly UI, allowing users to make changes to their web pages from tablet and mobile devices.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/responsive.png" alt="Surreal CMS Responsive" />
<h2>Multi-site Management, Easy Integration Options &amp; More</h2>
Surreal CMS has more to offer than just a pretty face though. There's also a fair bit of functionality and flexibility to be found.
For example, the platform allows you to manage a number of sites from one place, even if you have multiple hosting providers.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/sites_1.png" alt="Surreal CMS Site Manager" /> 
Furthermore, Surreal CMS can connect to any site using FTP, SFTP, and even Amazon S3. That means there is no need to make special arrangements to accommodate the platform. It just works.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/ftp.png" alt="Surreal CMS FTP SMPT " /> 
Additional features include built-in analytics, photo galleries, file management, and more. To dig a little deeper, take a quick look at their <a href="http://www.surrealcms.com/features" target="_blank"> features page</a>.
<h2>A CMS With a Friendly Face</h2>
One other thing I noticed about Surreal CMS, is its friendliness. Not only was it presenting features which almost anybody can make use of, but it did it with some charm – and that's worth praise.
Far too many content management systems get lost in their jargon and sleek website design to offer up any personality. Surreal CMS on the other hand, keeps it cool and casual.
Just check out their <a href="http://www.surrealcms.com/pricing" target="_blank">prices page</a> for example. Their platform is an ideal solution for website designers looking to streamline their tasks and earn via a platformlike Surreal, and so Surreal CMS go out of their way to explain how best to do this.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/2222.png" alt="Surreal CMS Pricing" /> 
Their website layout, copy and even the green Alien mascot found throughout their imagery and icons helps to maintain a friendly, helpful atmosphere. They even offer up a discount to non-profit organizations.

Surreal CMS: a Straightforward Platform With a Friendly Face

A college or university has many moving parts – and all of these parts need to work together smoothly in order for the institution to function. All kinds of information has to be made accessible to a large number of varied users – from visitors and students to staff, faculty, and administrators. In today's technology-rich world, in addition to a social media campaign that is up-to-date and well-integrated, colleges and universities have a whole host of their own, unique website and technology needs. (There's so much riding on the on-the-go accessibility of interactive information from the registrar's office alone). Each CMS for Higher Education discussed here is designed with 100% mobile-friendly capability and offers many other user-friendly features as well:
 Ingeniux 
Ingeniux is known as a flexible, secure, and reliable managed hosting solution offering day and night, year-round monitoring and support, including managed software upgrades. It requires no technical knowledge for users and is simple for those who are windows-oriented. Content (including videos, slide shows, etc.) can be easily imported and, in turn, embedded – simply by clicking and dragging from desktop applications. Ingeniux has course catalog and registration features and also allows for newsletters and campus event calendars. Other features include a forms builder, modules for athletics and news, and RSS feeds.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/weaver_elizabeth_ingeniux_for_higher_ed_screenshot.jpg" alt="CMS for Higher Education - Ingeniux user interface screenshot" />
 OmniUpdate Campus 
OmniUpdate Campus employs non-proprietary code that is built on open standards. It's been around for a long time and was specifically designed for higher education (now used by more than 700 colleges and universities) – offering course catalog, faculty directory, and interactive campus map features, as well as the capacity to manage as many users, pages, and sites as needed. The windows-friendly user interface is intuitive and requires less than an hour of training for non-technical users; the average user will find it easy to copy and paste content such as images, videos, etc. from an existing website and quickly publish it on this one.
In addition to RSS feeds and forms publishing, other capabilities include blog management and social media syncing. Another convenient feature of OmniUpdate is the fact that it alerts users to problems and necessary solutions before publishing. It does not require the installation of a separate application; rather, it is 100% internet browser-based and can normally be up and running in a matter of days.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/weaver_elizabeth_omniupdate_for_higher_ed_screenshot.jpg" alt="CMS for Higher Education - OmniUpdate user interface screenshot" />
 Campus Suite 
Campus Suite has earned its reputation as a secure, cost-efficient, easy-to-use turn-key software system, combined with support and hosting service – all specifically designed for colleges and universities. There are no apps to install, and built-in interactive web features allow for teacher pages, staff and faculty directories, event calendar, e-newsletters, news and press release management, blogging, podcasting, FAQs, form builders, and RSS feeds. There are also templates available that allow for easy assembly of photo and video galleries and more.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/weaver_elizabeth_campus_suite_for_higher_ed_screenshot.jpg" alt="CMS for Higher Education - Campus Suite user interface screenshot" />
 dotCMS 
DotCMS is a flexible, quick-launching, open source java-based system that can be used to manage a campus' entire web (including intranet) infrastructure. The WYSIWYG editor and drag-and-drop custom template builder allow for easy management and publication of documents, images, slide shows, event listings, etc., as well as the copying of material from an old, existing site to the new one. Remote widgets are available, and remote publishing can be set up in minutes. URLs and campaign domains can also be mapped to specific pages and sites using vanity URLs and domains.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/weaver_elizabeth_dotcms_for_higher_ed_screenshot.jpg" alt="CMS for Higher Education - dotCMS user interface screenshot" />
Campus IT professionals know that college and university websites today must have flexible, interactive designs – and must always be up and running. They are used by many stakeholders, including students, professors, parents, staff, and administrators – all of whom will have a whole range of technical skill levels. Ingeniux, OmniUpdate, Campus Suite, and dotCMS are all well-designed CMS' for Higher Education with the types of features a college or university's technical staff will find desirable, and all are well worth considering.

WordPress powers millions of websites and blogs worldwide. More than 60 million in fact, according to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPress">Wikipedia</a>. And this number is constantly growing. 
‘What makes it so popular?’ you may ask. Well, the answer is simple – WordPress is easy to setup and use. This CMS allows users to build almost any type of website – from blogs to multipage websites, online portfolios and even eCommerce websites. 
One more thing to mention is the wide variety of WP themes available. As you know, a WP theme is a fast and easy way to “dress” your site, so it is not such a bad thing that the web is flooded with millions of free and premium WordPress themes, developed to serve multiple purposes. 
Below we offer you an overview of the 12 essential components to which one should pay special attention when choosing a WordPress theme. Consider these elements and build a website that will set you apart from the rest.
<h2>12 Things To Look For When Choosing A WordPress Theme</h2>
In this section you may consider 9 basic elements that most popular WordPress templates boast. Making use of them, you can not only save time and effort on site development and management, but also start a project that will be in demand among the online audience. So, read on and remember these suggestions. 
1. Responsive Design
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/heyday.jpg" /> This is one of the indispensable features any website struggling to gain customer loyalty should incorporate. It’s no secret that modern users are shifting from desktop to handheld devices, so targeting mobile shoppers is the win-win solution. 
Think about this for a moment – would you stay on a page that doesn’t display content properly on your smart device? I really doubt that. When choosing a responsive WordPress theme you may feel secure your blog or website will adapt to any screen size, showing all elements the way you intended.
 Prime example: <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/52087.html" target="_blank">Heyday</a> 
2. Auto Upgrades &amp; Support
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/club8700x0.jpg" /> No matter how stunning the look of the theme you’ve picked, customer service is what really sells. The good thing is that WordPress templates from trusted companies like <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes.php" target="_blank">TemplateMonster</a> come with auto upgrades and free 24/7 support. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/51842.html" target="_blank">Club8</a> 
3. Navigation
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/recipes.jpg" /> You may have great content, a beautifully designed layout and several easy-to-reach social sharing buttons from which to choose, but all your efforts will be in vain unless you make your site easy to navigate. If the layout looks cluttered and users can’t figure out your site, they will simply leave.
Making your website easy-to-navigate is a key to success. So be sure to choose the theme that has a clean and intuitive navigation. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.wpexplorer.com/recipes-blogging-wordpress-theme/" target="_blank">Recipes</a> 
4. Social Media Integration
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/explorer.jpg" /> It’s unusual to find a modern user who doesn’t have a social media account. If you are running a blog or a corporate website, chances are you are trying to attract more users to participate in discussions and comment/like/share your posts.
With the help of social sharing buttons this can be easily achieved. Social media integration is known as a proven effective way to increase page views and sharing stats. 
Prime example: <a href="https://www.wphub.com/themes/explorer/category/business/" target="_blank">Explorer</a> 
5. Easy Customization
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/yamony.jpg" /> When buying a theme, check out whether or not it’s easy to customize. Some template providers will give you a theme together with detailed guides on installation and management. Depending on what goals you pursue, check out the advanced options with which the theme comes packed; does it include the functionality you might need (like calendar, slider, galleries, portfolios, etc.); what kind of standard pages does it offer? How many color/font options will you have at your disposal, etc.?
Also, check out whether the developer provides you with packaged functionality along with the template itself. As a rule, this functionality is not turned on by default. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.wpzoom.com/themes/photonote/" target="_blank">Yamony</a> 
6. Fast Load Speed
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/elegant.jpg" /> Will you stay on the page that doesn’t load quickly? Modern users want everything instantly, otherwise they go elsewhere to get it. On average, people wait for three seconds for the website to load fully. It would seem a three second wait is not that long.
However, when online it can feel like an eternity. That’s why you should be especially selective when choosing a WordPress theme for your site. Many problems with load speed will vanish once you pick a well-coded, clean template and dedicated plugins created to speed up your site. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.wpexplorer.com/elegant-portfolio-wordpress-theme/" target="_blank">Elegant</a>
7. Cross Browser Compatibility
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/delaila.jpg" /> People are using a variety of different browsers nowadays. Alongside such popular solutions as Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, there are many lesser known browsers (like Konqueror) that are also being used to view your site. That’s why it’s important to know your site will perform properly across all major media platforms.
To release you from the heavy burden of checking out your web page each time changes are being applied, modern template providers make themes cross-browser compatible for you to feel safe these will look and work effectively in all browsers. 
Prime example:<a href="https://www.wphub.com/themes/delaila/category/business/" target="_blank"> DELAILA</a> 
8. Clean Layout
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/delicious.jpg" /> Apart from functionality, design factor should also be considered. It is not always recommended to pick a template heavy in design elements. Clean and minimalist layouts are always in demand. Have a look at the screen shot below.
Delicious is a clean and minimal WordPress theme best suited for developing cafe &amp; restaurant websites. Thanks to the pale background, users can focus attention on the menu and specialties rather than be distracted by heavy graphics. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/50762.html" target="_blank">Delicious</a> 
9. Unique Design <img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/oshin.jpg" /> Those who want to stand apart from competitors and grab user attention with something outstanding, can opt for unique designs. As a rule, such resources are very interactive, allowing visitors to participate in storytelling.
For instance, Oshin is a beautifully designed multi-purpose WordPress template with 15 different layouts from which you can choose, 50 page builder shortcode modules, a bundle of free fonts, and much more. Incorporating the latest web design trends, like slow load effect, full- width visuals, ghost buttons, and grids, it was developed to catch the user’s eye at first sight. 
Prime example: <a href="https://www.cmscritic.comhttps://www.cmscritic.com/themeforestitem/oshin-creative-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/9545812?ref=cirvitis" target="_blank">Oshin</a>
10. Cherry Framework
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/car-wash.jpg" /> Cherry Framework, along with its child themes, was launched by <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/presentations/cherry-framework-wordpress-themes.php" target="_blank">TemplateMonster</a>. This is a free parent framework that comes with various widgets, shortcodes, and solid Bootstrap options.
Originally released in December 2012, Cherry is now compatible with more than 900 child themes. The admin panel resembles the original WP interface in many ways, allowing even those of us who are not tech-savvy to set up a site and bring it to life hassle-free. Cherry is easy to install, requiring only three clicks. Overall, it comes with most of the WP features, like SEO optimization, excellent support, custom post creation, easy import/export data procedures, XML sitemap generation, and a number of other extra features. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/51818.html" target="_blank">Car Wash</a> 
11. Custom Widgets
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/agrofields.jpg" /> The best part about WordPress themes is that many of them are filled with widgets that you can add to your site. These range from contact forms to menus, full screen slideshows, and other features. When working on the design of your future site, these are some of the elements in the Library adding functionality to your project. 
Prime example: <a href="https://www.cmscritic.comhttps://www.cmscritic.com/themeforestitem/agrofields-food-shop-grocery-market-wp-theme-/9725100" target="_blank">Food Shop Premium WordPress Theme</a> 
12. Shortcodes
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/dentist.jpg" /> Attaching media data can be facilitated by means of shortcodes. These are known as the easiest way to embed lists, tabs, audio and video data, Google maps, grids, and plenty of other elements into your site. If you need any of the above features, then look for a WP theme that comes with shortcodes. 
Prime example: <a href="http://www.templatemonster.com/wordpress-themes/52373.html" target="_blank">Dentist</a>
<h3>Final Thoughts</h3>
Although there is no way to guarantee success in the online world, one thing is for sure: by taking into consideration the 12 aforementioned elements you can set up a website that will be user-friendly, easy-to-customize, intuitive, easy-to-navigate, appealing and remarkable. 
Interestingly, free WordPress themes don’t lag far behind their paid equivalents, however the latter do provide a number of additional features and functionalities, like free 24/7 support, regular updates, protection from malware of any kind, etc. When looking for a template with which to build your next web project, there are several things to consider in order to obtain a product that is really worth the money. 
If you have any other thoughts or ideas on other elements to consider when choosing a good WordPress theme, you are welcome to mention them in the comments.

Choosing A WordPress Theme: 12 Things To Look For

I love answering questions and sharing what I know with others but I also like reading opinions from people and one site I frequent daily is <a href="http://www.quora.com/">Quora</a>. For those unfamiliar with the service, Quora is a question / answer site similar, I suppose, to <a href="http://stackexchange.com/">StackExchange</a>. I personally find the Quora visual experience more intuitive (not that StackExchange is bad, simply a preference of mine) and find myself answering questions on the go in the <a href="http://www.quora.com/Content-Management-Systems-CMS">CMS category</a>.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/photo-2012-08-21-9-32-24-am-620x465.png" alt="quora" />
I find navigating Quora to be easy to do on my smartphone and even on my iPad as you can see from the screenshot above. I love that I can manage topics, have people follow me and that I receive notifications when people either vote up my answer or reply to it. This keeps me engaged in the topics and I'm quickly able to find open questions that nobody has answered  so I can see if I can assist.
You also earn and can spend points within the system. Here's an explanation as to how the credit system works on Quora:
<blockquote>
Credits make content you care about on Quora more prominent. This prominence can help questions get answered, or get more attention for answers and posts. You'll spend credits to add a question, ask someone to answer, or promote content. You'll earn credits when people vote up your answers or follow your questions.

The credit system is brilliant for one simple reason: I can use credits to promote a question I have so more people see it but in order to get credits, I need to work for them. It's a smart way to keep people interacting and sharing their knowledge.
Sites like Quora add a huge amount of value to the web. They bring subject matter experts together in an effort to provide a service that I think is essential to the way the web should work. The web has always been about knowledge gathering and questions via similar services such as Twitter for instance, tend to get buried quickly if you are following a large quantity of people. Quora focuses on doing one thing and doing it well, getting people to share what they can and helping people find answers. It's a hugely useful resource and if you haven't tried it out, I strongly recommend you take advantage of it and share what you know.
Just thought I'd share it for those who haven't heard of it. ?

Why Quora is An Amazing Platform for Knowledge Gathering

WordPress is a monster in the CMS industry, to the point that it's almost unfair how many websites are powered by the popular open source CMS. With a whopping 23.4% of the web running WP, it's amazingly popular and far surpasses any other CMS in the world. Today, I'm going to share with you my thoughts on why WordPress beats Drupal and Joomla. I'm going to do so by sharing what I consider to be the 8 ways it does this.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/header_image-2500x0.png" alt="8 Ways WordPress Beats Drupal and Joomla" />
<ol>
<li>
<h2>Ease of use</h2>
When it comes to ease of use, WordPress is definitely the king amongst these three. Not only does it have one of the simplest and most straight forward interfaces, it far exceeds Drupal and Joomla when it comes to usability (in my humble opinion). WordPress has been used by many projects as a model for how to do a proper user interface and continues to improve with each new update. For an overall writing experience, it also offers a very unique distraction free writing mode which allows you to focus solely on your writing. Drupal, for instance, has an interface that fosters confusion and feels too complex. It doesn't feel as fluid as I'd like to see from such a powerful CMS. Joomla has some oddball ways of navigating the menus and accomplishing simple tasks and still needs some work (although over the years I've seen some good improvements).
</li>
<li>
<h2>Ease of Installation</h2>
WordPress is incredibly easy to install, the entire process is very, very straight forward and requires little knowledge. Having said that, services like Fantastico have made it much easier to install all three of these CMS with relative ease. Without Fantastico however, WordPress is definitely the simpler of the three. Even better, if you are using a hosting service like <a href="/bluehost">Bluehost</a>, it couldn't get much easier with their automated tools and WordPress managed hosting services.
</li>
<li>
<h2>Word of mouth</h2>
This is rather obvious but given the popularity of WordPress, it gets more word of mouth than Joomla or Drupal and is far more likely to be recommended as a solution than the other two. This can, however, result in people using WordPress for purposes outside the products means so it's a double edges sword in some cases.
</li>
<li>
<h2>Theming options</h2>
Sure, themes aren't the end all be all but for those looking to start a new website from scratch, they are certainly a huge help and with WordPress as popular as it is, there are literally thousands if not millions of themes out there to choose from. New theme development agencies are popping up every day offering more and more options to choose from which again, leads to more and more adoption of the CMS. Joomla is second to WordPress when it comes to theming and the situation with Drupal is just bad. There might be one or two decent Drupal theme companies out there but the work is often poor or unappealing to the masses (feel free to correct me if you know of some I'm unaware of).
</li>
<li>
<h2>Community</h2>
The WordPress community is nothing short of massive. With a huge number of blogs running on the WordPress.com hosted platform in addition to the downloadable version, WordPress has a community of millions of users around the world. This allows for a much quicker turn around for support questions and it's much much easier to find someone with the ability to assist in either developing plugins or a theme for your website. With a community this large, there are definite advantages.
</li>
<li>
<h2>Integrations</h2>
Almost any type of web software available has an integration with WordPress already in place or is working on one. This saves significant time working with code and allows users of the platform to benefit from the ease of use it's best known for. When integrating with a third party service involves a quick process rather than editing code, the world becomes an easier place for those looking to expand their websites with new functionality. Furthermore, with a massive directory of plugins, it's easy to accomplish new things and expand your website by simply installing a new plugin.
</li>
<li>
<h2>Niche Adoption</h2>
Since WordPress was a blog platform first and foremost, there was little competition other than Blogger to contend with. As a result, WP was quickly able to establish itself as the king of hte ring in this arena. As blogging became more popular, more of those individuals who first started out using WP for their blogs started to look at how they could continue their love affair with the plaform by adopting it to other niches. As a result, WordPress now can be used for far more than just blogging and continues to grow in capability.
</li>
<li>
<h2>Ease of Development</h2>
WordPress is a very simple CMS to use to develop websites. I've worked with it for years to build a number of sites including originally using it to power this very website you are reading this on. We are now powered by Processwire but I used WordPress to begin with to help me get this far. In addition, I built my wife's website, <a href="http://www.thekitchenmagpie.com"> http://www.thekitchenmagpie.com </a> (through which she ended up signing a book deal with Random House) as well as a ton of others such as <a href="http://www.baconhound.com"> http://www.baconhound.com </a> and many others. I find the development process very straight forward and since I am self taught in PHP, easy to pick up and understand.

8 Ways WordPress Beats Drupal and Joomla

<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/auditorium-572776_1280-e1467648402113.jpg" alt="auditorium-572776_1280" /> This is an open and unapologetic letter to CMS vendors who can't figure out why their updates get no love from their community.
More to the point, it's a letter to those same vendors who don't understand why their updates aren't news worthy.
Let's get to it:
[dropshadowbox align=”none” effect=”vertical-curve-both” width=”auto” height=”” background_color=”#ffffff” border_width=”1″ border_color=”#dddddd” ]
Dear CMS vendors,
As the Editor of CMS Critic, my inbox is battered with “news” of updates from around the world of CMS on a daily basis.
Some of those news items are interesting – but most of them aren't.
Here's why:
<h2>1. You Announced Your Update Horribly</h2>
Here's something that really bugs me, personally.
If you are launching a new product, or perhaps announcing a set of new features for an existing one, you should do so with energy, commitment, and confidence.
But far too often, I see announcements being made with zero effort.
For example, I see blog post announcements that are made up of nothing but bullet points. No introductions, no images, no structure, no nothing.
I also receive abysmally short press releases with minimal information and a short quote from a CEO saying something generic. This approach will bore your community – and repel journalists.
Instead, here's how to best present your update:
<ul>
<li>Blog Post: Publish a well-crafted blog post, with images and preferably a video. These should be directed towards your users first and foremost, but with the press in mind also.</li>
<li>Press Release: Here's where you can focus on journalists. Give them extended (and interesting) quotes from your executives, more images, and some general information about your company. Link to your blog post announcement, too.</li>
<li>Go The Extra Mile: If your update or product launch is worth shouting about, then do some shouting. Feature it in your next email newsletter, talk about it on social media, make custom graphics for it, make a video for it, and start a hashtag. Just do something to stand out.</li>
</ul>
<h2>2. Your Update Ignored User Feedback &amp; Complaints</h2>
You boast about being community driven, but do you actually let your community drive anything?
Releasing updates is almost always a positive event, but if you take years to implement features that your community is in need of, don't be surprised when they don't applaud your latest version – because it's not what they want.
If you have this issue, there is no quick fix. You'll have to go back to the drawing board to begin prioritising the features that your audience has been crying out for.
But it will be worth it, because a happy community is more likely to buy your add-ons, share your news, and <a href="/cms-critic-awards/">vote for you in the CMS Awards</a>.
Plus, a journalist such as myself will be more inclined to cover said news, since it got such an awesome reception.
<h2>3. Your “Major” Update is Actually Minor</h2>
Your product's major updates are golden opportunities for you to gain new customers and claim media coverage. But so often, those chances go begging.
When <a href="/wordpress-4-4-beta-bare-bones/">WordPress 4.4 was released, I accused it of being “bare bones”</a>. Because it was.
But WordPress isn't the only CMS vendor guilty of this. I've seen many “major” updates that are truly disappointing in terms of value.
If you aren't able to bring together a string of genuinely interesting additions to your platform, then I suggest you hold off on releasing it – even if that means having to adjust your product's roadmap.
If it's a chronic problem, you may want to stop releasing so many minor updates in between the major ones, so you have something left over for what should always be the biggest milestone in your product's history.
The fact of the matter is, a lot of CMS vendors are approaching their updates all wrong. Hopefully, the points I have raised in this open letter reach the right people, and sparks the right kind of change.
Yours frustratedly,
Kaya Ismail Editor, CMS Critic

An Open Letter to CMS Vendors: Why Nobody Cares About Your Latest Update

With the advance of tablet computing and mobile technologies, more and more companies are working to take advantage of these devices as ways to further differentiate themselves from their competitors. How are they doing this? By developing apps for mobile devices such as iPads and smartphones in order to give themselves an edge over the competition.
WordPress was one of the first significant apps available on the iPad and iPhone devices and, while it struggled when first released to actually be useful, it's grown into quite the handy app.
The latest version, 3.1, offered a UI redesign and the app is even slicker than before. One awesome new feature was the addition of the Reader which lets you either choose topics and then shows you a list of curated blogs to follow or lets you read the latest from a variety of blogs on the topic you've chosen. It's a cool way of exploring new content and blogs you might not normally have known about.
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/22104_793231467412177_8494232424221102817_n_yirwsg.jpg" alt="WordPress for iOS" />
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/photo-2012-08-20-2-29-38-pm-620x465.png" alt="WordPress for iOS" />
The only drawback here is that it seems to only work with WordPress.com blogs so it's a bit limiting.
You can also view, edit and create new posts (or pages) quickly and easily. I'm not a huge fan of blogging via tablet since I'm more of a physical keyboard guy myself but I know people who are content to do it or have purchased bluetooth keyboards and make due just fine.

You can also administer comments (which is what I use it for primarily) via a nice clean interface:
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2023/08/photo-2012-08-20-2-07-56-pm-620x465.png" alt="WordPress for iOS" />
Additional features of this app include:
<ul>
<li>Statistics so you can check how your blog is doing, how many visitors, page views, etc. (this is only good for those using WordPress.com Stats via the Jetpack plugin that comes with WordPress).</li>
<li>Quick link to the dashboard which opens up inside the app via browser integration.</li>
<li>Integrated previews of posts, pages and the entire site within the app itself.</li>
</ul>
It's a great app that keeps getting better. It's also free, which rocks. You can check it out here: <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/app/wordpress/id335703880">WordPress for iOS</a>

WordPress iPad App Keeps Getting Better

As fireworks pocked the night skies across the U.S. this past weekend (a celebratory signal that summer has arrived), we had a chance to reflect on a busy June. Needless to say, it was a scorcher – especially in the CMS and DXP sector. Once again, we saw platform vendors holding major events around the globe, with several piling up on one another. 
One standout we covered at the very end of May was <a href="https://www.cmscritic.com/reflections-from-sanitys-structured-content-2022-conference/">Sanity's Structured Content 2022 Conference</a>, which offered some unique perspectives on the position of content as data. The substance was unique, relatable, and truly applicable to attendees – with some terrific keynotes from the likes of Dirk Voetberg from Spotify, Kusum Kanwar from Shopify, and Carrie Hane from Sanity. We took a snapshot of the event's sessions, which were held live in San Francisco and virtually in Oslo and London. Definitely worth checking out. 
While economic uncertainty continued to obscure the horizon for enterprise software vendors, companies like Strapi bucked the trend by <a href="https://www.cmscritic.com/strapi-secures-31-million-in-series-b-funding-plans-to-enhance-open-source-headless-cms-and-deliver-cloud-platform/">securing $31 million in Series B funding</a> to enhance its headless CMS. We also tracked <a href="https://www.cmscritic.com/visual-content-management-platform-boom-acquires-visual-production-company-lemonone/">acquisition news from BOOM</a>, a visual content management platform, as it announced the purchase of LemonOne – a visual production vendor. Along with updates from <a href="https://www.cmscritic.com/craftercms-releases-version-4-0-adds-api-powered-git-capabilities-and-composable-features/">CrafterCMS</a> and <a href="https://www.cmscritic.com/proventus-as-announces-release-of-relatude-cms-and-e-commerce-version-6/">Relatude CMS</a>, it was a busy 30 days.
As always, there were a few more stories sizzling on the backburner – right next to your hot dogs and burgers. So grab an ice-cold lemonade, light up a sparkler, and keep reading...
<h2>Shopify invests in Sanity, connecting commerce with content</h2>
We've already mentioned Sanity's fantastic Structured Content 2022 event, but the news doesn't end there. In June, the content platform <a href="https://www.sanity.io/blog/shopify-invests-in-sanity-connecting-commerce-with-content" target="_blank">announced</a> a partnership with <a href="https://shopify.com" target="_blank">Shopify</a> that includes a strategic investment from the e-commerce juggernaut. Sanity is the first CMS partner to launch an app for Shopify’s headless commerce framework, <a href="https://hydrogen.shopify.dev/" target="_blank">Hydrogen</a>, and is Shopify’s only public investment in a content platform company to date. The combo will offer Shopify’s millions of merchants new capabilities to improve shopping experiences by significantly "inspiring" product and brand content. 
As noted previously, Sanity approaches content from a unique angle by treating content as data. At the same time, storytelling lies at the heart of Sanity's vision – something that permeated the themes of its Structured Content 2022 event. One of the conference keynotes featured Kusum Kanwar, Senior Product Lead at Shopify, who talked about how content makes commerce "human." Both companies share a common focus on this expanded value of content – and now, by joining forces, Shopify and Sanity aim to bring commerce and content together so merchants can tell their stories, inspire audiences, and flexibly adapt product information, brand assets, and other content faster than ever. 
Shopify’s investment codifies Sanity’s potential as a complementary resource for sellers. The <a href="https://www.sanity.io/shopify" target="_blank">Sanity Connect </a>for Shopify app was purpose-built to operate with Shopify’s headless commerce stack, which features both Hydrogen and Oxygen. Armed with these capabilities, merchants building custom storefronts on Shopify can also deploy immersive product content with rich media, embed product content on external channels, enable one-click ordering anywhere on a website, orchestrate promotions to email and social media, and much more.
 
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2022/07/dotcms-image.jpg" alt="Image of dotCMS logo over a screen shot of the CMS user interface" />
<h2>dotCMS unveils major updates to its content authoring experience</h2>
<a href="https://www.dotcms.com/" target="_blank">dotCMS</a>, a leading hybrid-headless content management system, has <a href="https://www.dotcms.com/company/news/dotcms-unveils-major-updates-to-the-content-authoring-experience" target="_blank">announced</a> the latest edition of its platform. The new update includes a drag-and-drop content palette and story-like block editor, along with other enhancements to the overall content authoring experience. These product enhancements come on the heels of what dotCMS calls its "best year yet" in 2021, with that momentum driving a positive outlook for 2022.
In an effort to remain nimble around digital transformation, enterprise organizations are embracing <a href="https://www.cmscritic.com/mach-alliance-releases-study-on-adoption-of-mach-technologies-by-tech-leaders-qa-with-sonja-keerl/" target="_blank">MACH architecture and composability</a>. While microservices-based headless architecture brings many benefits and allows developers a great deal of freedom, brands cannot ignore the needs of their content authors – who are often forgotten in the shift to headless. 
The new dotCMS drag-and-drop content palette makes page building easier and improves the flow of content editing. In addition, the <a href="https://www.dotcms.com/docs/latest/changelogs" target="_blank">latest LTS version of dotCMS (22.03)</a> features a JSON-Based Content Store and improved content search results. 
<h2>Acquia Partners with Workato to power enterprise connectivity to Acquia CDP</h2>
<a href="https://www.acquia.com/" target="_blank">Acquia</a>, a leading digital experience platform, announced a partnership with integration and workflow automation platform <a href="https://www.workato.com/" target="_blank">Workato</a> to power enterprise connectivity to the <a href="https://www.acquia.com/products/marketing-cloud/customer-data-platform" target="_blank">Acquia Customer Data Platform (CDP)</a>. Organizations can integrate Acquia CDP with hundreds of external cloud services via secure, enterprise-grade APIs through out-of-the-box connectors.
With Workato-powered integrations like this (and others), marketers can achieve a faster path to connectivity with the services they already use. As a part of the <a href="https://www.acquia.com/products/marketing-cloud" target="_blank">Acquia Marketing Cloud</a> platform, Acquia CDP enables marketers to aggregate and activate data from technologies of their choice into a unified, 360-degree customer profile. From there, marketers can use Acquia CDP to orchestrate personalized, AI-powered campaigns across the entire omnichannel customer journey.
 
<img src="https://cmscritic.com/ms-content/uploads/2022/07/wpe-img-chianti-1024x512-v01.png" alt="Image of WP Engine plugins from Delicious Brains" />
<h2>WP Engine acquires popular Delicious Brains WordPress plugins, including developer favorite Advanced Custom Fields</h2>
<a href="https://wpengine.com/" target="_blank">WP Engine</a>, a leading <a href="https://wordpress.org/" target="_blank">WordPress</a> digital experience platform for websites and apps, <a href="https://wpengine.com/blog/wp-engine-acquires-delicious-brains-plugins-including-advanced-custom-fields/" target="_blank">announced</a> it will acquire five of the most popular developer-centric tools for WordPress from <a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/" target="_blank">Delicious Brains</a> – strengthening the company’s offerings for both traditional and headless managed WordPress. 
The plugins have a total installed base of approximately 4 million users and are widely adopted by WP Engine’s customers. The acquired software includes <a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-migrate-db-pro/" target="_blank">WP Migrate</a>, <a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-media/" target="_blank">WP Offload Media</a>, <a href="https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-ses/" target="_blank">WP Offload SES</a>, <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-search-replace/" target="_blank">Better Search Replace</a>, and a preferred developer go-to called <a href="https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/" target="_blank">Advanced Custom Fields</a> (ACF).
The acquisition of these widely-used WordPress plugins will expand WP Engine’s portfolio of market-leading developer tools, including WP Engine’s <a href="https://localwp.com/" target="_blank">Local</a>, the #1 Local WordPress development tool; <a href="https://wpengine.com/genesis/" target="_blank">Genesis</a>, the #1 WordPress theme framework; and <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/atlas-content-modeler/" target="_blank">Atlas Content Modeler</a>, which simplifies the development process of creating content models for headless WordPress sites.

Community and Open Source are becoming the two fundamental assets of the software world. Giant companies like Google, Apple and even Microsoft started to develop services based on open source environment.
eCommerce and CMS (content management system) world is familiar with open source since there are big services which share their codes with everyone on platforms like GitHub. But sharing the source code with everyone doesn’t completely fulfil open source philosophy. Because strong, open, vibrant and a volunteer-friendly community is needed to make that project successful. We can see such examples from WordPress, Joomla, Drupal etc…
Arastta eCommerce is an open source project which is <a href="https://arastta.org/community">driven by its community</a>. For a relatively new startup project Arastta has a great community sharing ideas, translating into different world languages, reporting issues and bugs, contributing the source code and helping to plan the future of the project.
Taking part in the Arsatta community is very easy. Anyone can register on any Arastta web sites (<a href="https://arastta.org">Arastta.org</a>, <a href="https://arastta.com">Arastta.com</a>, and <a href="https://arastta.pro">Arastta Marketplace</a>), with a single account.
After you sign up, the following participation channels are available to you:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://arastta.org/community">Community</a>: All community related activities like being friends with others, joining groups and events, creating your own groups etc</li>
<li><a href="https://arastta.org/forum">Forum</a>: For the technical and “how-to” questions</li>
<li><a href="https://arastta.org/ideas">Ideas</a>: Months before the major release of an Arastta version, developers always check Ideas section of the Arastta.org site to understand what is needed and asked by its users and community. And then developers do their best to implement and include those most voted features or needs into the next release</li>
<li><a href="https://github.com/arastta">GitHub</a>: Open Source contributing platform for the users who are able to code and develop with PHP, JS, CSS etc</li>
<li><a href="https://crowdin.com/project/arastta">Translating</a>: Translations are the essential part of the Arastta project since it’s a global project. Thanks to volunteered community members Arastta is translated into more than 35 languages. Everyone can translate Arastta into their own language or contribute the current translations via <a href="https://crowdin.com/project/arastta">Crowding service</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://sponsors.arastta.pro/">Sponsorship</a>: A great way to contribute Arastta project while promoting your commercial service or product to the Arsatta community</li>
<li><a href="https://arastta.com/">Arastta Cloud</a>: Another great way to support Arastta project is the Arastta Cloud service where users can signup for a recurring cloud plan and use their Arastta store on the cloud servers specifically optimised for Arastta.
