Line 20:

* '''Easily Editable Content:''' Once your content is separate from the visual presentation of your site, it usually becomes much easier and quicker to edit and manipulate. Most CMS software include [[WYSIWYG]] editing tools allowing non-technical individuals to create and edit content.

*'''Scalable Feature Sets:''' Most CMS have plug-ins or modules that can be easily installed to extend an existing site's functionality.

*'''Web Standards Upgrades:'s'' Active CMS solutions usually receive regular updates that include new feature sets and keep the system up to current web standards.

*'''Workflow management''': Workflow is the process of creating cycles of sequential and parallel tasks that must be accomplished in the CMS. For example, a content creator submits a story but it's not published on the [[website]] until the copy editor cleans it up, and the editor-in-chief approves it.

*'''Document Management:''' CMS solutions always provide a means of managing the life cycle of a document from initial creation time, through revisions, publication, archive, and document destruction.
