Why should I develop web sites with Kentico CMS?

With Kentico CMS, you can achieve better results with less effort and in a shorter time than with traditional development by leveraging:

  • fast, browser-based development with minimal coding
  • tons of ready-to-use web parts and modules
  • high flexibility and full control over rendered HTML code
  • open and extensible architecture

Rapid web site development 

Let's face it: traditional web site development with tedious coding using basic ASP.NET infrastructure is too complex, repetitive and expensive. You can hardly justify the costs of such development in the era of content management systems that provide ready-to-use frameworks oriented towards storing, updating and publishing content.

Kentico CMS provides a flexible, content-oriented framework based on the ASP.NET platform that allows you to cut your the development time from hours to minutes. What used to require writing ADO.NET code, SQL queries and using databound controls, can be done with a few mouse-clicks in Kentico CMS.

Open and extensible architecture

Many content management systems suffer from lack of flexibility and extensibility. Since Kentico CMS was designed as a web development framework, you will not be restricted with pre-defined behavior or design.

Full control over HTML code and design

You can still find systems that make you use a hard-coded, table-only HTML code and that do not produce valid XHTML code. Kentico CMS gives you full control over (X)HTML code, graphic design, site structure and navigation.

Don't take our word for it - see the showcase sites to get hundreds of examples how flexible Kentico CMS actually is.
