The Contensis Enterprise Content Management System and accompanying suite of products began life, as many products do, following an animated discussion between a group of UK software professionals back in the autumn of 1998.

They all agreed, after exhaustive evaluation, that most of the content management products available at that time fell far short of their own vision and an idea began to gel.

By spring 1999 work was well advanced on the specification of a CMS system which not only met their criteria, and that of respected industry analysts, but equally important also reflected the views of end user enterprises.

Power, ease of use and cost effectiveness were the key words

The beginnings of the Contensis development team were spawned a little later and work started in earnest to turn the dream into reality.

By mid 2004 after two well received releases, R3.5 was launched and was soon achieving the sort of sales that more than justified the five year development 'act of faith' which involved over fifty man years of time.

Now at Release 4, Contensis Enterprise CMS has been adopted by a host of blue chip organisations and the growth of the business has been dramatic.

It seems we got it right - thanks guys.
