Intuitive and relevant functionality, accessible with a browser - this is what EPiServer CMS 5 offers as the Web becomes more interactive and dynamic. Just some of the features are listed below:

Versioning

EPiServer CMS 5 allows you to work with multiple versions of the same page so that authors and editors can collaborate online to keep information current. Pages cannot be overwritten since new versions are created automatically. EPiServer CMS 5 can roll-back and re-publish older versions whenever necessary - making sure your content is never lost and can be repurposed for various uses, anytime! In addition, if two of your team members edit a page simultaneously, EPiServer CMS 5 will warn of a conflict.

Scheduled publishing

In EPiServer CMS 5, it is possible to schedule a page publication for a specific date and time, and even restrict it to specific areas, pages or content sections. News releases or planned events on your Web can be synchronized with your corporate marketing program quickly and easily.

Auto-subscriptions

Notify your customers directly when new content is added to your site through the subscription functionality in EPiServer CMS 5. Automatic e-mail notifications are sent from the site administrator when new content or updates are added. 

Metadata

Effective use of metadata is key to optimizing Web page ranking in external search engines ensuring that your site is getting the right exposure. EPiServer CMS 5 provides a consistent method for creating metadata through the use of meta description, meta keywords tags, meta refresh tags, meta robots tags, meta copyright tags and the meta author tag, among others.

Categories

EPiServer CMS 5 categories functionality allows you to classify and structure content under predefined trees developed by your site administrators. Categories can be customized and made public for visitor interaction, and can also be kept updated based on certain criteria. In addition, categories help to reduce the number of irrelevant search results and manage content in a more structured manner.

Language and globalized Web sites

EPiServer CMS 5's support for globalized Web sites is an integral part of the system, allowing authors and editors to quickly and easily create content in multi-languages or tailor content that is specific to certain target groups or market sectors.
