Vignette QuickSite Speeds Web Site Development

Vignette (NASDAQ: VIGN) recently announced the worldwide availability of QuickSite, a new service offering that simplifies the Vignette Content Management implementation process and enables organizations to launch new Web sites faster. QuickSite delivers a consistent infrastructure, empowering marketing departments to launch multiple micro sites and branded sites without having to recreate Web pages from scratch.

"QuickSite is an innovative and cost-effective way to reduce the unknowns of site development." said Shane Anastasi, vice president of worldwide professional services at Vignette. "We have taken our 10-plus years of experience in delivering content management software and encapsulated it in one delivery framework. Our customers are expected to deliver engaging Web experiences to their key audiences, and it's our job to make that happen as quickly and easily as possible."

QuickSite can deliver a working customer-branded Web site within weeks. The service deployment includes content management processes, templates and business adoption workshops before the customer is asked to determine additional site requirements. QuickSite also includes support for multilingual Web sites, displays of content information through tag libraries and CSS templates to manage the look and feel of a site with limited help from IT. Additionally, Site Cloning allows organizations to replicate a site within minutes rather than days by reusing the templates.

"I was impressed with the speed at which QuickSite was delivered," said Michael Berrio, vice president of Retirement Plan Services at T. Rowe Price. "QuickSite's page-centric model enabled us to get our RPS Web content team up to speed quickly with little training, and in a few short weeks our project team could understand how best to deliver our public Web site. The orientation workshops in QuickSite also gave us the knowledge required for the deployment of our future internet and extranet sites."
