2. A content management system is the engine of a website. It allows users to create websites with text, photos and streaming media and can also send digests to customers via email and offer a fully functional and secure e-commerce gateway. And it can automatically update the user’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram feeds. CMS refers to web-based applications that publish content. Such systems comprise an interface that allows users with limited training to push content into the world and a delivery system that makes sure it gets there. Technically speaking, a CMS can be used for internal communications, but in those cases, it’s basically indistinguishable from collaboration software.
