Open-Source CMS

Gives Your Company The Control Over Your Website

An option available to our clients is having your site built using an open-source Content Management Sytem(CMS) Platform. With a CMS your company can edit, update and add new material to your website. Some of our clients like us to maintain their website and do their updates and others like to do it all themselves. Either way Starr Web Solutions is here to help on a regular basis or on an as needed basis.

Many companies offer you a Content Management System but it is hosted with them. Your website you create stays on their server and it not readily transferable if you decide you want to host your site somewhere else. With managed hosting services you can’t add any of your own programs, customization is limited to what their program offers.

Pros of Using an Open-Source Program vs Managed Hosting

  • More Cost Effective. There are no monthly licensing fees.
  • Full Ownership Control. Your company has control over what add-ons you want. Managed hosting gives you less control to what add-ons are allowed and you have limited access to advanced server functionality.
  • No Reliance on a Third-Party. Update on your schedule. You don’t need to worry about what will happen if the managed hosting company goes out of business, stops support, or increases costs.
  • Enhanced customization.  A large community develops plugin for custom features or develop your own to fit your company’s needs.
