SiteBuilder Pro
Summary
SiteBuilder Pro is website Content Management System (CMS) and Ecommerce System all rolled into one platform that is fully integrated with the Essent Business Management System.
Designed from the ground up for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Search Engine Marketing (SEM), SiteBuilder Pro allows Professional Grade ecommerce solutions to be created and maintained faster and less expensively than any other hosted or custom website.
SiteBuilder Pro is a web developer’s tool to design and create widgets, master pages, site pages, a site map and an entire web site. Widgets can be created consisting of HTML, video, flash, tables, or ecommerce components. Widgets can then be drag and dropped into the various zones to create a page. By using widgets to create pages and pages to create a site map, an informational site can be custom created to meet unique marketing needs.
SiteBuilder Pro also facilitates advanced ecommerce with complete integration with order management, inventory, customer and accounting. Again a web designer can use SiteBuilder Pro to customize the look and feel of the ecommerce experiences while providing the professional shopping cart experience expected. Page content can be modified or managing by any administrative person as simple as using Microsoft Word, without the need for programming or technical knowledge.
SiteBuilder Pro™ E-Commerce Website Content Management System is hosted with Essent running on Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 6.0. SiteBuilder Pro integrates and communicates with Compass through Essent File Replication Services and SQL Server 2005 Replication Services.
Out of the box, SiteBuilder Pro will meet the majority of the identified needs and many more not yet discussed. It is important to note that SiteBuilder is a Website Content Management System foundation that is designed to facilitate custom configuration. In other words, SiteBuilder Pro can be tailored and enhanced to meet the customer’s needs. No other major Website Content Management System exists. The only other related commercial alternatives would be traditional PC-based Integrated Development Environments, which don’t allow direct web-based management nor offer functionality for direct integration with Compass.
SiteBuilder Pro is based on industry standard technologies widely used throughout the world, specifically:
- Microsoft Windows 2003 R2 Operating System
- Microsoft Internet Information Server 6.0 web server
- Microsoft SQL Server 2005
- Microsoft .NET 3.0 Framework
- Transport Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
- Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP)
- Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)
- JavaScript
- Microsoft VBScript
- ASP.NET (Active Server Pages)
- Structured Query Language (SQL)
The solution will be implemented on a single server running all required software. As performance load and redundancy requirements dictate, the client may optionally upgrade hosting to include additional dedicated web servers and database servers. (Additional charges will apply. Please contact your representative for pricing and availability.)
