As you can see, this is the most feature-packed Web Site Content Management System on the market, and since we built it from scratch it is available only to our clients and reseller partners. We offer our efelle CMS with each website design we sell, but also offer affordable CMS integration services for pre existing website designs; contact us for pricing or an online demo.

Additional detail on our efelle CMS Web Site Content Management System modules follows:


customer module
Customer Module

This module is designed to give administrators an easy way to maintain customer information. In this module you can create new customers as well as maintain or remove (disable) existing ones. This is also where all contact information is stored along with exactly what packages any customer has access to. This includes standard as well as customized packages. Besides the packages a customer has access to, we also keep track of any domain names linked to packages as well as physical location of the various packages on the web servers.

Package Module
Package Manager
The package manager is designed to maintain all aspects of CMS packages. This includes any standardized packages, as well as any customized packages that may have been created for specific customers in the customer setup module. Settings that can be set or maintained here include exactly what modules are part of any package, along with setup cost and monthly recurring fees for hosting and/or licensing.

Usage Statistics
Usage Statistics

The Usage Statistics module is to show any usage trends and high level overviews of how the system is used, who its most frequent users are, what the most or least popular functions are, etc., etc. In the long run this is one of the modules that will help us monitor the system and detect potential problems before they occur.

File Manager
File Manager

The file manager allows CMS users to maintain their uploaded files – this includes uploaded images as well as other documents (word, txt or PDF). Through the File Manager these files can be updated with newer versions as well as removed from the system. When images or documents are removed from the system through the file manager, the CMS will automatically search through the pages currently in the system and remove any instances. This prevents dead links from ever appearing on the client's website.

Menu Builder
Menu Builder

The menu builder is used to create navigation groups and menu bars. It allows users to create menus to navigate through their site. Menu bar design is fully flexible, allowing both horizontal and vertical menu bars, as well as full customization when it comes to colors, fonts, sizes, spacing and more. The menu bars can have an unlimited number of menus and sub menus.
The menu builder allows users to create links to any static content as well as to package specific module pages. The types of pages available to the user depend on the package they use.

Search Engine Optimization
Search Engine Optimization

The Search Engine Optimization (SEO) module allows users to control some of the settings related to the built in Search Engine Optimization. By default the CMS generates fully optimized URLs for all of the pages in the system, which dramatically increases the 'searchability' of sites created with the CMS. The SEO module allows users to change some of these settings, including making changes to the automatically generated SEO URLs for every page in the system.

Static Content Editor
Static Content Editor

The static content editor is where all non-package-specific pages are edited. “Static content” is referring to the fact that once the user saves the content of the page, that is the content that visitors see – it doesn't change unless the user updates it again. This is different from some of the other modules where a number of different things affect what a visitor might see on a particular page – that makes those pages more 'dynamic'. The static content editor works like most industry standard word processors, making the learning curve virtually non-existent. In the static content module people can add, edit and remove static content pages. When editing pages, they have the option of adding, editing or removing images and other uploads, making it a “1-stop shop” for any task related to editing these pages.

System Preferences
System Preferences

In the “System Preferences” module, CMS users can change some of the settings of their account. This includes setting their default package (if they have more than 1), update default login information and other generic system preferences.

Users
System Users

This is where CMS users can maintain a list of the users that are allowed to log into their CMS interface. This will allow them to have more than a single person that can maintain the site. They can set access rights here so different users can maintain different parts of the website. This increases security as well as accountability for the customer.

Banners
Web Page Banners

The Banners module allows customers to place advertising banners on their website. They can offer banner advertising to third parties and use the module to monitor impressions, clicks, etc. When combined with the payment module it is possible to charge third parties per click or impression of banners.
The Banners module can be instructed to show different banners on different pages, use static banners (that are always the same on a particular page) or rotating banners. Exposure for banners can be monitored and fully controlled (eg. take a banner out of rotation once it reaches a certain number of clicks or impressions).

Business Blog
Business Blog

The Business Blog module lets customers add a blog ("Web Log") to their website. They can easily add entries to the blog through the CMS as well as through the front-end of their website. Posts made in the blog can be opened for comments, or posted without allowing visitors to add comments to a post. This can be controlled on a per-post basis.

Chat Rooms
Client Web Chat

Adding chat room functionality to a site is easy with the Chat Rooms module. In the CMS the customer can indicate the settings for their chat room. The standard chat room module has some pre-defined settings – it's limited to 1 chat room with a max of 25 visitors and a single chat room operator. For more than 1 chat room or a higher number of visitors, we have the Chat Room Pro module at additional cost. The chat room module requires no additional plugins for visitors.

Event Viewer
Event Scheduler

The event module allows lets the customer schedule events. These can be scheduled by using just the Event module, which will add an “events” page to the site from which all events are linked, or by linking it to other modules. Linking the events module to the scheduler module, for instance, will create a calendar, just like the standard scheduler module does, but items on this calendar can be linked to events from the events module, which allows a much larger set of information to be shown for scheduled items, since the events module itself can link to yet other modules.

Form Builder
Form Builder

Using the Form Builder, customers can create their own forms. The forms can have a virtually unlimited number of questions / items and the output for the forms can be directed either at an e-mail address, the database (for later retrieval through the CMS interface) or both. The Form builder can be used for forms as simple as a “contact us” form, through something as complex as a web-based survey.
When the output of a form is directed at the database for later retrieval, the data that's gathered from all entries can then be used to generate some statistical data based on these entries, which is great for research purposes.

Photo Gallery
Image Gallery

The Gallery module lets customers build web-based image galleries. This module can be used on its own or in combination with other modules. On its own the module allows customers to make any number of individual galleries with any number of images in each gallery. For each image the customer can add a description. The following modules can be linked with the Gallery module for added functionality:

Event Module: Adding the Gallery module to the Event module allows the customer to add a photo gallery to events to show highlights, etc.

Payment Module: The standard Gallery module combined with the payment module allows customers to set a price for gallery items and lets them sell the items. They have the option of selling the item once (e.g. with original art work such as paintings etc.) or letting multiple people buy items (useful for photographers who want to sell some of their work on their website as stock photography)


Job Listings
Job Listings / Job Listings PRO

Using the Job Listings module, customers can add job listings to their website. The listings can be divided into categories, and every listing can have its own point of contact (using either email or phone information). The Job Listings Pro module also provides an option that enables direct online job applications. This adds a form to every job listing that lets people apply directly on the website. It lets them enter their personal / contact information and then provides them with a spot to upload their resume in either a Microsoft Word or text format. Utilizing this functionality, the customer can specify keywords to look for in resumes to pre-filter them based on content. This cuts down on time necessary to weed out resumes that don't fit the profile you are looking for by ranking them in the CMS interface by relevance.

Links
Link Manager

The Links module lets CMS customers build link pages that contain links to other pager or website. They can divide these links up into categories and indicate whether links should open in the current window or create a new window, on a link by link basis.

Locations
Location Manager
The location manager lets CMS users maintain a listing of their various office or company locations. This is a great way to enable people to find the closest branch of your business simply by searching the locations on the Web site. The location manager module also extends the functionality of some of the other modules by branching and separating content out into different locations. For example, this would be useful when combined with our Job Listings or Job Listings PRO module to allow job applicants to apply for jobs at a certain location. This module also combines well with the Scheduling and Reviewing modules, adding the ability to schedule events at a particular location, and allowing people to find or add reviews by location as well as event.
 
Newsletters
Newsletter Builder
In the day and age where almost everyone has a computer and has access to email, a very popular and simple way to stay in contact with your customers is by using email newsletters. Our Newsletter Builder lets you put together visually appealing email newsletters in a matter of minutes, and send them to your customer base. Creating the newsletters is as easy as writing a document in your favorite word processor and requires no knowledge of HTML coding or graphic design.
 
News Room
News Room Web Feed
The News Room & Web Feed module gives our users the ability to build and maintain a news room where they can add all their press coverage articles and regular news updates. This module also has standards compliant RSS and Atom feeds built into it so your clients and customers can stay up to date on all your latest news at all times.
 
Page Security
Page Security
Using the Page Security module it's possible to close off certain pages (or even whole sections) of your Web site to certain visitors. It gives users complete control over who can access what areas by creating users and user groups all with their own specific access rights. Using the Page Security module it's also very easy to set up private intranet sites or other membership-only Web sites.
 
Payment Processing
Payment Processing
The payment processing module allows you to process payments through your Web site. The module can be used as a stand-alone module for processing the occasional individual payment, or can be linked to some other modules to extend their functionality. When combined with the Store Front Manager it allows you to process orders and accept payments directly on your Web site. In combination with the Event Scheduler it allows you to take reservations and have people pay for them on your Web site. Or if paid advertising is more what you are looking for, the Payment Processing module can be combined with the Web Page Banners module to offer pay per click banners on your site and charge your customers automatically from your Web site.
 
Reporting
Report Module
Knowing your customers is everything, and with the Report Module you can keep track of everything pertaining to the visitors of your site. This module allows you to retrieve all the information that's being kept (like who visited, where they came from, how they moved through your site, etc.) and view it in a number of different ways. This enables CMS users to track visitor trends and lets them adjust and fine-tune their websites to optimize the visitor's experience and in turn increase their ROI on the Web site.
 
Scheduling
Scheduling
The Scheduling module is an all-round scheduler that allows our users to maintain one or more schedules with tasks, appointments, jobs and more. By itself it works as a wonderful tool to keep track of day to day schedules, but combined with our other modules is where it really shines. For example - in combination with our Event module it expands the standard scheduling functionality by tying into a much larger set of information that's associated with the events that are put on the schedule (including reviews, image galleries, reservation management and more)
 
Store
Store Front Manager
The Store Front Manager turns your website into a full-blown eCommerce solution. This module has everything included in it to quickly set up a Web based store that's totally categorized with products fitting into one or more categories. All parameters (other than the very basics like descriptions and pricing information) can be totally customized. This makes the Store Front Manager the most flexible solution possible and makes it a breeze to sell any type of product directly through the website. Be sure to combine it with the Payment Processing module to get the fully automated online shopping experience with automatic payment processing and everything.
