Report Excerpt

The Web CMS Report 2009 looks at... Mediasurface Morello

"Mediasurface also now offers a small hosted solution, mostly for creative agencies, called Pepperio (acquired a little over a year ago), and more recently, in June 2007, Mediasurface acquired mid-tier player Immediacy, which it plans to maintain as a separate product.

Our take is that managing three different CMS products can be very distracting, and we don't see many "synergies" among the tools or partner bases. On the other hand, most of the risks going forward would seem to reside more with Immediacy customers rather than the company's flagship Morello base. "

Mediasurface Resurfaces

02-Mar-2004

After a quick and noisy start during the Boom, Mediasurface went rather quiet for what seemed like quite a long time to us. Recently the UK-based company entered a new phase with a substantial rework of its product, now in version 5. Let's call the 3rd part to this trilogy "Return of the Client," as Mediasurface unveils a Windows client module designed for non-technical business users. We're not keen on thick clients, but we think their return represents perhaps one measure of the ongoing dissatisfaction with existing browser-based interfaces in many CMS products...
