SparkPlug Overview

SparkPlug is a powerful, full featured, multi-site, database-driven Content Management System (CMS) with powerful features that enable easy publishing and management of both static and dynamic Web sites using the Macromedia Coldfusion platform. In particular, Sparkplug CMS offers rapid development and site management features for:

Web Developers
Create dynamic or static Web sites for your customers quickly and effortlessly using SparkPlug's flexible site templating system. Intuitive templating and publishing features can cut Web site development and maintenance time (and cost) by up to 80 percent.

Web Design Houses
SparkPlug allows rapid deployment of database-driven dynamic or static HTML sites by simply plugging in templates, adding dynamic code and assigning content to those templates. Create 10-page or 1000-page sites at warp speed. Give your customers the privileges they need to edit their own pages from anywhere or simply let SparkPlug deliver static HTML pages to your customer. SparkPlug could be your best kept secret.

Managers
Take control of the content on your Web site through SparkPlug's personalized workspace, which lets you concentrate on adding, approving and deploying content without having to worry about the technical stuff such as how content appears on the site. No Coldfusion/HTML knowledge required.

Site Architects
We've done all the site architecture work so you don't have to. You'll be able to build any kind of site based on portal development best practices.

Hosting Companies
SparkPlug supports multiple sites on a single database, which makes it a great tool for hosting multiple customer sites and allowing them to update their Web site remotely using a Web browser.

Portals
SparkPlug can manage anything from corporate sites with only 20 pages or news portals with 20,000 pages or more. SparkPlug is extensible, providing a platform for developers with Coldfusion/ASP knowledge to develop enhanced features and services.

Graphics Designers
SparkPlug is content agnostic, which means that it does not care whether it is serving text, images, Flash animations or a video stream. Use SparkPlug for Project Management, giving customers the right privileges to view and approve work-in-progress remotely through the browser.
