- The cost of maintaining the system is expensive
- Companies are tied to a single development team
- Adding new functionality is prohibitively expensive
- The system is not user friendly
- The CMS is not integrated with internal systems
|
| The first and most important consideration is whether it is financially viable to make a change to your content management software. The decision needs to take into account a number of factors, which should be spread over the lifetime of your software:
PLUSES- Proposed increases in revenue over the timeframe
- Time & cost savings realised through easier administration.
- Benefits of lower maintenance costs
- Benefits of cheaper costs to add new functionality
MINUSES- Cost of disruption to your current systems
- Political implications of change
- Cost of installing the new system
