We're Officially the Best Business Blogging Software Platform
By James Paden Vice President of Product
We're not perfect, but we truly believe we're the best blogging platform for most businesses. Managing a blogging program with Compendium is signficantly easier than using any other platform. To that effect, we've named our latest release
Version 3.0. Since our last major version release we've:
- Redesigned most of the platform
- Added very flexible approval workflows and layers
- Rebuilt our social media integration to include author promotions and scheduled promotions
- Built the world's most advanced categorization system including auto-categorization and default categories for authors
- Begun gamifying the content creation process by incentivising authors with public Author Leaderboard and Top Posts lists
- Redesigned our Google Analytics integration to include author performance data
- Added 301 redirect management directly into the application
- Rebuilt our Wordpress importer (due to additional new clients switching from Wordpress) to migrate all images and files into our CDN
- Upgraded our database caching to ensure even faster load times
- And made many, many other small tweaks
These upgrades have really made managing a business blog easier, saving our clients time and money, which lets them focus on actually creating content.
Version 3 is our announcement to the world that blog management can be lot less painful. We're moving on to Version 4 and solving other problems. I'll say more over the next few months ;)
