Are your change requests falling on deaf (or really, really slow) ears? Need to get that press release out now? SAM offers a familiar word processing interface and simple, one-button publishing.

Browser-Based Content Authoring

SAM's best-in-class WYSIWYG text editor features formatting controls that are easy for anyone with a modicum of word processing experience to master. Thus, non-technical content authors require a minimum of training. There's no content-authoring software or special plug-ins to install and team members can login from anywhere with Internet Explorer 5.0 or greater for Windows.

Unleash the Micro Manager

This simple editing menu appears beneath every discreet content "chunk" on your page, say, a story, or a sidebar item. Use it to edit, delete, or even check out the revision history of that chunk. You can even edit the metadata for that chunk to increase your site's visibility.

Style Sheets Keep Things Nice and Consistent

Use familiar pull-down menus—which may be customized for each site—to select text styles like Head and Subhead, Body Copy, Picture Caption, etc.

Many-to-Many—That's Where it's At

Here's a time-saver you can't do without: Unlike many competing products, SAM enjoys a many-to-many relationship between pages and even discreet bits of content, an executive bio, for example. This means that pages or chunks can be easily replicated or inherited on multiple pages. The really cool part: You can choose whether to link the chunks, so that editing the "parent" instance updates the linked instance as well, or you can choose to diverge the instances, so you can change one without effecting the other.

Content Auto-publish and Expiration

Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Write that time-sensitive article now, and schedule its go-live date for later. Just set it and forget it. Of course, you can go ahead and schedule it's expiration date as well, so the piece will vanish from your site right on schedule. Don't worry, it's only been archived. You can retrieve it again later if need be.

The Power of the Dark Site: Hiding and Unhiding Pages

SAM's unique architecture makes it a snap to hide pages until you're ready to display them. This is ideal for creating "dark" pages or microsites crucial for emergency response procedures, for example.

Dynamic Navigation: The Amazing Morphing Menus

Add a new page and all of the site's navigation devices are instantly updated to include it, including main and subordinate menus as well as "breadcrumb" or footer navigation. Move pages around horizontally and vertically throughout the site architecture; all subordinate pages automatically travel with the newly relocated page, and—just as importantly—all hyperlinks to those pages are dynamically maintained.
