Benefit |
| Hosted Content |
The Vasont Hosted CMS stores a client's
content in a secure, world-class data center. Clients
can access their content via the Web anytime. |
Significantly smaller investment in
IT staff, software, and hardware. |
| Tier 1 Data Center |
The data center provides redundant
power supplies, Internet capabilities, cooling and fire
suppression systems. Only top-brand, high-performance
equipment is used. |
Continuous access to your content 24/7/365. |
| Security and Protection |
Vasont's administrative capabilities
ensure that only authorized users throughout an organization
can access the content with their unique IDs and passwords.
In addition, the servers are protected by a five-level
security system in the data center. |
Content integrity is ensured across
your content base. |
| True Single-Sourcing |
Vasont maximizes the reuse potential
of an organization's content by ensuring that only one
copy of the content exists in its robust repository. |
Users can edit their content once for
reuse many times. |
| Unique Data Storage Model |
Because Vasont was created by developers
with publishing roots, its flexible data storage model
was developed to accommodate today's industry standards
(XML, DITA,
SCORM), as well as standards yet to be developed. In addition,
Vasont supports multiple DTDs, either standard or custom. |
The system will never become outdated. |
| Multilingual Translation
Management |
Vasont has complete Unicode Transformation
Format (UTF-8 and UTF 16) support capabilities for multilingual
translation management. The integration of the Unicode
international character sets within the Vasont system
enables organizations to easily configure Vasont for language
combinations of their content and to manage and edit their
multilingual content in "chunks" from a single
source. |
Saves thousands of dollars in translation
costs. |
| Advanced Link Management |
Through its advanced bi-directional
linking, Vasont keeps track of all the content's uses
throughout the repository so that changes only need to
be made once in order to be immediately available for
global or specific uses. |
Content accuracy is ensured across
all documentation regardless of media format. |
| Exclusive Processing Options |
Vasont's exclusive processing options
are built-in system customizations that give users more
control of their business logic and allow for time-saving
event-triggered task automation. Users can define and
build their own processing options or use the system-supplied
scripts. |
Minimizes customization costs and
increases productivity. |
| Multi-Channel Delivery |
Content can be quickly repurposed and
delivered to many different media channels, including
print, Web, electronic, and wireless formats. |
Optimizes the product creation and
deployment process at a lower cost. |
| Digital Asset Management |
Vasont is effective in storing, searching,
and organizing graphics and multimedia files and their
corresponding metadata, and provides thumbnails and detailed
list views for easy identification. |
Stores all content in one repository,
eliminating hours of searching for assets. |
| Document Management |
Vasont manages unstructured documents
in addition to structured component-level content, with
advanced search capabilities to find content within documents. |
Enables legacy and supporting files
to be stored without converting to structured content. |
| Workflow |
Vasont's integrated workflow capability
allows users to efficiently access, review, and edit content
through checkpoints and e-mail notifications. The graphical
workflow feature allows for easy set-up of a workflow
process. |
Reduces the editorial process timeline
and ensures all steps are completed. |
| Versioning |
Vasont’s versioning capability
provides a user-friendly interface to access the detailed
component-level version information and allows users to
reinstate any previous version if needed. In addition,
comments can easily be added to any time-stamped version
that the system captures. |
Keeps an audit trail of changes to
content, allowing organizations to meet demanding industry
compliance requirements and comprehensive content tracking
demands |
