PSA Clients can access a world-class web strategy through our marketing partnership with Centralpoint by Oxcyon.  Centralpoint is a content management system with incredible flexibility.  Functions can be turned on and off with the check of a box.

Think open source content management systems are free?  You have to pay someone to develop your website on that software, then you're dependent on that programmer for the life of the website.  Not so with Centralpoint.  Read on...



Centralpoint CMS vs. Open Source CMS

There are hundreds of CMS systems on the market.  Many of these competing offering claims to be FREE.  Vendors like Joomla, Zope, and others.  The free price tag of open source, initially seems attractive, until you consider they require much work to make them the way you want, and really aren't free at all.

Lifetime employment contracts are required for those who need to customize it.  They will be the only ones who know how it comes together.  Open Source means you are gambling that the developer recommending it knows something about architecture and scalability.  Most of Oxcyon's new clients are rescue operations stemming from an open-source-gone-bad scenario.  Open Source assumes that developers will have all the time in the world to develop what is needed.  If it can't be launched immediately, and without the need of ancillary technologies to help it along, the plan is not sound.

Centralpoint enables you to create and manage multiple web projects each with unique content types, designs, layouts, administrators and URLs.  Centralpoint unifies your efforts, allowing you to do more with less resources.

Centralpoint empowers you to cascade your information from the source, through any number of audiences (microsites), serving each user differently based on their individual roles.  This could mean anything from documents, to videos, to anything.  Centralpoint offers all of the editorial review and workflow at each cascading level to make sure your streamline information flows the way it is supposed to.  Typically our implementation of Centralpoint can be done in half the time of larger vendors, and does not require as many resources.
