Report Excerpt

The Web CMS Report 2009 looks at... OpenCms

"OpenCms supplies a browser-based editor in which you write code. The biggest "pain point" is that you can only open one JSP file at any given point in time. If you have to open another JSP, you have to close the one that is open, go back and open another one - obviously not a very productive development environment. "

(p. 674)

More about The Web CMS Report 2009

Our customers say

"The Web CMS Report was the roadmap for our entire CMS selection process. It truly provided a basis for understanding what we should look for and expect in a CMS. Above all, since we used the report as our guide, we are more-than-confident in our CMS selection. If we had to go through the process all over again, we'd still rely as heavily on this report as the first time.

OpenCMS Goes J2EE

06-May-2003

One of the reasons why Java-based, open-source CMS projects have not really achieved lift-off, we think, is their lack of adherence to standard Java patterns and practices. In its newest version, the most well-known such package, OpenCMS, heads in the right direction by standardizing around JSP and Servlets. Before the latest release (V. 5.0), you had to use a funky (and proprietary) system of XML-based templates for the presentation tier. Several other improvements help move the project more into the Java mainstream, which could speed adoption substantially. We'll have more to say on the topic of open-source CMS within the next few days...
