CommonSpot is a flexible, scalable, and easy-to-use Web content management solution that enables organizations to improve productivity and achieve better results from their Web initiatives.  CommonSpot empowers non-technical users to publish any type of content (text, forms, video, images, RSS, etc.) via any delivery channel (Web, streaming media, mobile phone, iPod) with minimal IT involvement making them more self-sufficient and productive.  The solution's inherent flexibility and scalability empowers IT and site administrators to easily adapt the system—whether you want out-of-the-box applications that you can customize; the ability to create your own applications through a development framework; or the ability to easily integrate with, or import and export applications.  CommonSpot serves as a Web foundation that maximizes the delivery, value, and timeliness of the content you create.
