Features
Packed with great features and at a price no other CMS can beat, Metro Publisher is built to help media companies succeed online, regardless of their size.
Cloud Application
Metro Publisher is cloud service. If you’re scratching your head right now, then here’s what that means:
If you've ever used something like Gmail or managed your bank account online, then you already have the experience of working with a cloud service. Basically, a cloud service is any interactive site or mobile app accessed via the web that lets you complete tasks (such as editing your website).
Using a cloud CMS such as Metro Publisher means you don't have to find programmers to build your website, retain IT staff to maintain it, or manage any kind of server infrastructure. You can immediately start benefiting from what technology has to offer without needing to become a technology expert. Just leave the tech headaches to us.
The Future is Part of the Service
The Internet is constantly evolving at breakneck speed. Every month, countless new requirements, technologies, and devices become available, requiring websites to undergo constant development and change. How can you hope to keep up? The truth is that you can't. At least not without expensive retainers or an in-house tech team.
This is where cloud applications excel. Metro Publisher's regular updates are packed with new features and improvements that all clients automatically receive – no developers required.
Publishing with a Cloud Application
From any computer connected to the Internet, you and your editors can publish to your live site – any time, anywhere.
No Hidden Risk
If you’ve ever worked with a company to customize existing software (regardless of whether it is proprietary or open source), you’ll know that it takes months of work drawing up requirements, writing code, and testing. Factor in possible misunderstandings with the developers, and the risk of cost overruns that inevitably arise, and it becomes a costly, cumbersome process with a finished product that’s often disappointing. As a Metro Publisher client you can say goodbye to all the stress and cost of customizing. You get to see exactly how the system works before signing up. And then, our minimum contract is just one month, so you can test it without a long-term commitment — while we work hard to keep your business.
Worried About Your Data?
With 24/7 monitoring and daily back ups your data is always safe. Our systems team keep your site out of reach from even the most pernicious hackers.
