Once upon a time you needed to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on content management systems. You needed to have your staff specially trained and sometimes you even needed new staff just to manage your site. In the end the system didn't do what you wanted it to, or it was so difficult to use or you just didn't use it at all. If this is anything like your experience with Content Management Systems, when you see what Jango can do you'll wonder how we do it at the price.

Jango CMS - Push-button publishing for your website.

Jango CMS does 90% of the common tasks that systems costing 100 times as much can do. In fact we believe that these may well be 100% of what you need. We believe in building systems that your staff can use with little or no training. All this means lowest cost of website deployment and content maintenance.

Unlike other content management systems, Jango CMS is 'business oriented' software. You won't find bulletin-board style features such as the ability for people to comment on your content. What you will find however, are many professional content tools that allow you to create a powerful dynamic web site that can be managed by people regardless of their experience. A website that is always current and has simple-to-use features which will always keep your online image slick and professional.

Jango CMS is a robust 3rd generation system with over 5 years of commercial use. Unlike other open source systems, the backing of a commercial business provides many benefits to the end user such as enhanced security, support and reliability.

Jango CMS Professional Edition

Full ownership of software license, dedicated support, free updates, free installation.

Geared directly to the end-user and corporate clients, this package includes a license of Jango CMS so you OWN your web site. We install the system, provide free software updates as they are released, and we are there (during standard support hours) to assist you with your technical support needs.

Jango CMS Developer Edition

Lower price for developers with the skills to look after Jango themselves.

For those with the technical ability to install and maintain their own copy of Jango, this edition is for you. We've un-bundled the support and updates in favour of a lower price to reflect your own capabilities. The software is the same Jango CMS as the corporate edition with all the same features. If you would like to add support options, there are additional packages to choose from which cater for both phone and email support. Please see our support options page for further details.

Use Jango to build your website

Jango CMS makes building a website an "out-of-the-box" experience. All you need to do is add the pictures and words and your website is up and running.

  • Installing Jango takes seconds and in minutes you can be adding text and images to your site - all using nothing more than a web-browser and an Internet connection.
  • Create complex layouts with pictures and descriptions such as product catalogues using the image collections function.
  • Create work-groups of authors who can contribute stories to your site without them having administrator access.
  • Use your site as an intranet/extranet using the private content feature. Private content such as price lists or your client's work will be protected by a secure log-in.
  • Built-in tools such as indexed word searches, content archiving and backups make site management a breeze.
 
  • Purpose-built modules manage news and articles, allowing you to publish them to the front page or categorise them for easy navigation.
  • Menus automatically update as you add content. Choose from dynamic horizontal menus with drop-downs, Indented lists, or nested-folder style JavaScript menus.
  • Jango CMS is a solid industry-proven 3rd generation content management system in commercial use for over five years.
  • Jango CMS uses free Open Source software such as PHP and MySQL and costs nothing to deploy. Compare that to systems requiring Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase and Coldfusion costing thousands and even tens of thousands of dollars.
