Consejo, Inc | Solutions | Fast Track to Ektron CMS400.NET

Content Contribution
One common mistake many organizations make, when implementing Ektron CMS400.NET, is to ignore or marginalize the content contributor interface. Developing templates is generally not a technically difficult task for a qualified .NET developer. However, the difference between a "satisfactory" implementation and one your authors will praise, is the time spent making it as easy to contribute content as possible. If you start your project on your own, we would recommend spending a good portion of your project "discovery" (requirements gathering) time interviewing your authors for exactly "how" they feel most comfortable contributing content. Taking this step will not only make your author happier and more productive, but it will reduce your development time.
