Content Management Systems, uses, implementation, comparisons.
In my many years of working with intranets, I have always said that content is king. When your content is written and structured well, systems that use the content work better. This was always true for the intranet search engine. Now this includes AI.
The Forestry Commission and associated organisations used a bespoke content management system for their intranet and it was due to drop out of support early in 2019.
