SUBSTANCE CMS 

The Substance Content Management System is a powerful and flexible web content management solution for small to medium size businesses. This system simplifies the construction and operation of sophisticated data driven websites and requires no prior knowledge of HTML or other programming languages.

The system is built using proprietary "elements" utilizing the latest in .NET technology. These elements allow you to control your web content from any computer with internet access via our browser based user interface.

With our unique pricing structure and no contract required, we have created a robust web option for businesses and individuals who want to control their site content on their schedule. You can always add modules as needed, which provides much needed flexibility.

What makes Substance different from other CMS solutions is simplicity and cost. Our basic package is a robust fully functional CMS, giving you the ability to change site content, including images on the fly. We also offer a wide selection of upgrades that allow you to expand as your needs grow. Why pay for what you don't need?
