A good CMS forms the basis of the website and enables the management of all your websites and content within one environment, without requiring knowledge of programming languages. A CMS is important for every type of organization. Universities, hospitals, commercial organizations, government agencies, and other organizations all have one thing in common in this area: they want to get in touch and/or share information with the target group. Content such as blogs, videos, photos and podcasts play a major role in this because it forms the bridge between organizations and the target group. It offers the opportunity to share the story and convey the right message. Without a CMS that meets your wishes and goals, publishing, sharing and keeping content up to date is either a lot of work or impossible. In addition, a CMS that does not comply can cause various problems, such as:
Poor performance
When the website does not function optimally, visitors do not get the experience they are looking for and expect. Consider long loading times, platform downtime and pages that are not displayed correctly. This can result in frustration, visitors leaving and a poor online image. In analytical terms, this translates to a high bounce rate and a low conversion rate.
Technical limitations
The CMS must not only fit in well with the objectives, but also with the other systems in the digital landscape. Without the right connections, systems may function limitedly or not at all. There is also a chance that data is entered into the system incorrectly or incompletely, which results in additional and inefficient work.
Limited SEO options
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the optimization of pages with the aim of improving positions in search engines. Content is one of the most important factors here. Without a good CMS, it will be difficult to keep content clear and SEO-optimized. This makes it more difficult to achieve and maintain a higher position in search engines such as Google.

A fragmented online landscape
We regularly encounter fragmented online landscapes. In short, this means that organizations have multiple websites or systems with different suppliers. This is not only associated with double hosting and further development costs, it is also inefficient. Organization-wide adjustments must be implemented on many different pages or domains.
In addition to the costs and extra work, risk issues also arise. This is because all these domains and pages also have the necessary administrators with admin rights. Due to the fragmented landscape, it is easy to lose track of these rights, with all the potential consequences.
Multisite and multilingual
Therefore, manage all your websites, web pages and content clearly from one central system from one supplier. This has several advantages:
- Save time because changes that normally have to be made per system can now be implemented for all websites in just a few steps.
- Avoid double costs of hosting and further development with multiple providers.
- Add new websites to the system with relative ease.
- Add an unlimited number of languages that are easy to manage.

Every plugin is reviewed before being published, and the CMS is equipped with strong security features such as multi-factor authentication and audit trails. Additionally, the platform receives regular updates to maintain security at the highest level.
Collaborate efficiently and safely
With the comprehensive access control, you can easily grant different access levels to individuals and teams in the form of roles. This way, you determine what each role is allowed to do in a system, helping you protect your digital projects. These roles can then be applied in the Workspace. This creates a well-defined workflow within TYPO3, keeping the creation, editing, management, and publishing of content as efficient as possible. It promotes collaboration, quality, and production speed.
High performance
With TYPO3, you are assured of high performance on both the front end and back end. The system continues to run at full speed, regardless of how large the multisite platform becomes.
