New York City-based Avatar New York (www.avatarnewyork.com), an independent Interactive and Web Design agency, along with European partner, Vide Infra Grupa (www.videinfra.com), announced on October 20 the launch of Avatar Vantage, a revolutionary Content Management Solution (CMS).
Initiated in 2000 in the European market under the name Site Manager, the original CMS prototype was implemented for several clients as a series of visual content administration tools. By the release of version 2.0 in 2002, Site Manager became one of the most comprehensive content management and development platforms on the market.
Vantage’s current 3.0 release has many leading features such as Page Templates and Layouts, Access Rights and Workflow, Custom Web Applications, and a Powerful Engine. In this latest version, new enhancements include an industry leading page template engine, extended application server functionality and an improved user interface.
Patrick Tully, Chief Technology Officer for Avatar New York, said that Avatar Vantage has been designed with both the developer and end-user in mind, that website visibility, updating content quickly and building e-marketing strategies are key elements to a company’s online success, and that Vantage’s customizable templates and modular design are so flexible that allow Avatar’s customers to maximize these strategies while significantly lowering overall site maintenance cost.
