Absolutely not! A Content Management System (CMS) will do just that and only that – help you to manage your content, usually through a pre-determined workflow process.

A CMS isn’t a content rules engine; it’s a content publishing engine.

It will be unable to assess and report on the quality and consistency of content, meaning that your content output will only be as good as what Content Editors have put into the CMS.

Your CMS is unable to check all content prior to publication in the same way that Sitemorse can. Sitemorse is able to assess content, code, PDFs, and any external feeds and third party elements that are on the page from an external ‘Google’ point of view (most of which would be ‘invisible’ to your CMS).

As you can see, Sitemorse goes one step further, performing assessments and audits across all digital content and channels, ensuring that your content is issue and error-free before it is published.
