Keep Your Editors Happy

If your content really is “king”, then you must give your editors a tool to support them in efficiently creating good stories. As the features are similar among all high-end CMS, it is becoming increasingly important how these features are implemented. For more and more professional editors, Sophora is therefore the first choice due to its user-friendly structure. Sophora Modules & Features

Consolidate The Online Infrastructure Of Your Organizations

At the WDR, there was an entire zoo of content management systems, including TeamSite, Typo3, and a proprietary CMS. With the introduction of Sophora, as the central CMS, the structures were more clearly defined, reducing costs and awakening the dormant potential synergies of their editorial teams.
