Custom Built Content Management Systems
Some clients have a very specific application behind the CMS. Their data reflects a portion of their business model, and they want to have rapid access, with maximum ease of use for their employees.
For these customers, we install and customize our own content management system. Based on a full WYSIWYG editor, our clients can add their own content and edit all the pages on their site.
Customers see only the options they need to see to get their job done. The result is reduced training and the exact functionality that the customers need.

Case Study - Custom Content Management System
Real Estate Auctioneer, AJKaras.com needed to display the information on the properties in their real estate auctions.
In their auction process they also needed to track the interests of the individual site surfers, and they needed a repository for the reams of legal information involved in any real estate auction.
The site admisistrator is computer savvy, but she has a full day's work managing the real estate auctions. The user interface had to be fast to learn and simple to remember.
The system is a big success with dozens of auctions entered already.
Bill Smith has developed cutting edge auction technologies for the stock market, food industries, energy, transportation and other clients. E7Systems is proud to lend their many years of auction expertise to making AJKaras the cutting edge of web based technology for the management of Colorado Real Estate Auctions, New Mexico Property Auctions and Auctions nationwide. Look at These Specific Auctions to see the versatility of their system:
When a site user is interested in an auction, they must register to get the legal documents describing the property. On registering we cazpture their email address and auction interests. Every morning we send an email to the auction manager listing the interested surfers, who viewed which auctions and what documents were downloaded. With this information the auction manager can make effective use of their time in follow-up calls to make sure that all buyer interest makes it to the property on the day of the real estate auction. |
