Content Management System (IA)
This report set out to explore the comparison between two Content Management System (CMS) products. The author extensively researched the CMS products at her disposal and narrowed down the two best suited to her capabilities. The two CMS products that were assessed and analysed were that of Wix and WordPress. The data for this report were collected from academic databases, including Semantic Scholar and ResearchGate. The author used a qualitative research method used with secondary source analysis. The report found that, in terms of support of business models Wix was better for small enterprises or individuals with no technical expertise, while WordPress proved to be more powerful for e-commerce and enterprise-level sites. Furthermore, both offer tools for business process modelling, but WordPress is more versatile & configurable with its open-source nature & big plugin library. It was discovered that both CMS products had different levels of support for different compliance standards. In terms of global and multicultural capabilities, WordPress is a more adaptable platform that can be customized to suit the requirements of any site, including multilingual sites.
