If you are in the market for a new CMS or agency, our latest benchmark will help with your decision making process.

With so many options, and competing claims from vendors, how can you shortlist the best to not only meet requirements but also justify your final decision to budget holders?

With this in mind, Sitemorse has developed a new benchmark called Vendor Verification. The benchmark offers an independent way to review and rate web agencies and Content Management Systems (CMS), with a comparison based on real deployments. For example, does the CMS (in live operation) prevent accessibility errors and broken links, and does it match up to quoted claims?

Sitemorse CEO Lawrence Shaw commented: “With an enormous range of products on the market for managing websites, the one thing that is often lacking for web managers is a comparison. They have been able to talk to their own contacts to get an idea of what has worked for others, but the market has been lacking a truly independent verification of the various claims being made.

“Our real-world testing will be able to offer good advice on what the best products are available to support web managers and can back it up with evidence” he added.
If you manage a website in the public or private sector, we’d like to find out more about which content management system or external agency you use and in return we’ll provide full access to Vendor Verification.
