The choice of CMS must consider who publishes, how they review and where the content will be used. A flexible architecture may be inadequate if every simple adjustment depends on development.
How to evaluate this decision
Map content types, channels and required autonomy. A decoupled CMS can serve multiple destinations, but requires well-resolved integration and preview. A traditional solution may simplify publishing and impose other limits. Compare the full cycle, including permissions, review, media, maintenance, and future migration.
Criteria for comparing proposals
- Editing: Testing real tasks from whoever maintains the site, not just the vendor's demo.
- Modeling: defining structured content without turning all text into an overly rigid field.
- Operation: evaluate preview, publication, scheduling and recovery of versions.
A scenario to discuss with the supplier
Hypothetical example: marketing needs to update pages weekly, but the solution requires manual deployment for any changes. The operational cost may outweigh the benefit of a more sophisticated architecture.
What to validate upon delivery
Ask the editorial team to create and review a representative page. Check preview, media, permissions, and publishing without developer help at every step.
