CM4all Brings its Content Management to Americas 

By Rawlson O'Neil King, theWHIR.com  

September 16, 2004 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) --  European content management 
software developer 

CM4all, which targets its products at the consumer mass market, has begun to license 
it WebsiteCreator 

product in the Americas. 

The tool, says CM4all, allows small and medium-sized businesses, private users and 
organizations to 

design and maintain Web sites online without any knowledge of HTML programming, thanks 
in part to its 

numerous design templates that offer countless possibilities for individualization. 

End users need not purchase the Web-based content management system and have it 
installed on their 

personal computers; instead, the product is integrated directly into the hosting 
packages offered by 

their service provider. The product, says CM4all, can allow an end user to develop a 
professional looking 

Web site in less than 30 minutes. 

CM4all takes full advantage of the application service provider model. Internet 
service providers, 

hosting companies and telecommunication firms can seamlessly integrate the service 
into their offerings 

without extensive installation expense. The ASP model allows OEM customers to handle 
high numbers of 

users (up to 50,000 customer Web sites on just one server) and offer CM4all products 
at an attractive 

price. 

CM4all server software runs on hardware within the OEM's data center. The software is 
specifically 

designed to easily integrate with billing and control panel architecture. There is a 
range of server 

solutions to choose from, depending on the individual requirements and the number of 
end users the OEM 

customer expects to have. Field-tested configurations range from single-server 
solutions to installations 

with two redundant servers or highly scalable cluster systems. CM4all provides all 
installation, 

automatic system updates and maintenance via remote administration. 

"We have developed a system where a Web browser is all that is necessary to build and 
manage a Web site," 

states Robert Schovenberg, chief executive and co-founder of the company. "With our 
tool, many one-page 

Web sites can be easily developed into full-blown, corporate sites. The result 
typically is a 50 percent 

increase in hosting revenue, due to a user's sudden interest in spending more on 
services to personalize 

their sites." 

CM4all typically has targeted large OEMs that have bundled the system with their 
existing hosting 

products. In Europe, the company provides content management services to almost 
350,000 end users at 

hosting giant 1&1 Internet. CM4all also provides its services to Swiss Telecom and to 
Deutsche Telekom's 

T-Online European business units. In total, CM4all caters to nearly 1 million end 
customers through its 

European OEM customers. 

Over the course of this year however, the firm has been steadily moving into the 
Americas. In late 2003, 

the company approached large and mid-sized hosting firms and won its first contract 
with Verio/NTT. For 

Verio, CM4all delivered a content management system for North American clients based 
on CM4all technology 

and customized the solution to Verio's private label requirements. The CM4all software 
enabled Verio 

customers to design their own Web sites through browsers. The software was further 
configured to include 

integrated e-commerce functionality and Web services such as blogging, surveys, map 
and driving 

directions, shopping carts and online forums. 

Recently, the company signed up Superb Internet Corporation, which is also using the 
software to private 

label its site building offerings. CM4all also recently negotiated contracts with 
domain registrar eNom, 

which will begin offering content management services in September and budget host 
uplinkearth.com, which 

will launch at the end of the month. 

CM4all has even moved into Latin America by signing Terra Lycos S.A. CM4all 
WebsiteCreator was integrated 

into the Terra Lycos hosting portfolio with a user interface in line with the 
company's corporate 

identity. Users can use the software in English, Spanish or Portuguese. 

The company plans to continue making in-roads in the Americas through its new North 
American office, and 

through strategic acquisition of at least five new customers this year, and 10 next 
year. CM4all intends 

to win customers through emphasizing its more consumer-friendly approach. 

"Our technologies take a rather different approach," says Schovenberg. "Instead of 
asking how many POP 

accounts a customer needs, we ask more relevant questions such as: how many Web pages 
does your site 

require? The result is more end user satisfaction and loyalty." 

The company also plans to win customers by its aggressive pricing structure. OEM 
partners can elect to 

enter into revenue sharing or pay a low, recurring fee per account.
