Xpressite™ R5.5: Add 1,000+ web pages at no additional cost! November 16, 2001
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mendham, New Jersey, November 16, 2001 – Xpressite™, a web site content manager from Kolaco, Inc., is the fastest, easiest and most cost effective way to manage a web site. It is more than just a web-editing tool. It is an intelligent, dynamic system that reduces the work effort required to create and manage a website. For one low price, Xpressite Internet specialists work with individual company marketing requirements to customize the design of the site. Once the site is set up, companies can add as many pages as they want, as often as they want, for no additional cost. Adding pages is as easy as formatting a word document. The entire site can be maintained without having to learn any programming languages or web editors.
Xpressite is ideal for organizations that want a site that is more than just an on-line version of their marketing brochure. If they want a site that uses their own custom graphics, be able to make frequent and instant updates, and control the costs of managing a web site, then Xpressite is the answer.
Xpressite has built-in intelligence: Date sensitive pages (News & Events) only display until they reach their expiration date, when they are automatically removed from the site. Links to pages added or removed are automatically updated throughout the site, and all internal links are verified and removed if invalid.
“Our customers really value how our Internet specialists guide them through the design process. This is a big time saver when setting up a new site,” says David Kolakowski, Founder of Kolaco, Inc. “Most of our customers have converted to Xpressite from sites built with popular web editing tools. They needed an easier, cost effective way to manage site content. Xpressite provided them more functionality for about one-fifth the cost. They also cannot believe how easy it is to use.”
In addition the powerful features referred to above, Xpressite includes the following functionality:
- Dynamic Home Page & Automatic Expiration of News & Events Pages – The Home Page automatically displays links to current “News”, “Events” and “What’s New” pages. As these pages expire they are automatically removed from the home page.
- Expandable Left Navigation Menu – The category links in the left navigator expand to show additional links – acting like a table of contents for the site. These links are automatically adjusted as pages are added without having to reprogram the menu.
- Menu Bar Buttons – Companies can choose from 10 standard buttons or add some of their own. Selecting and defining links for each button is done with point and click. Xpressite automatically removes buttons that are not relevant. For example, if the “What’s New” button only shows up if there are new pages.
- Request for Information Forms Management – Incoming request forms can be routed to different people for different types of requests. These requests can then be managed from “New” to “Open” to “Closed” status.
- Intranet and Secure Access – Many of the Xpressite installations include a secure Intranet portion of the site where a valid username and password are required to gain access. Intranet’s can be as simple as publishing content to a specific list of authorized users or a complete interactive collaboration site including discussion forums, document libraries, contact management and meeting minutes.
- Web Site Statistics & Activity Tracking – Xpressite tracks every visit to every page and categorizes these visits by Site Map Category so companies can analyze the effectiveness of the site.
Shopping Cart Functionality and Other Add-ons – Being able to change products, post specials and update events with the ability to allow customers to select products and checkout, is one of the available Xpressite add-ons. Additionally, Kolaco web developers are certified by IBM and can create any specific functionality that companies may require.
Lowest Total Cost Solution – Xpressite reduces the upfront time and costs as well as virtually eliminating the need to have an outside consultant on retainer to make site changes.
