The typical enterprise CMS, with endless drop down menus and confusion, has been replaced with a modern interface, centered on the individual.</p><p>"Magnolia has always been about combining user-centric design and enterprise strength, together with the flexibility to deal with rapid changes in business requirements. But the advent of Mobile has forced a more major rethink of the role of the CMS in today's modern enterprise: how, where and by whom it is used," explains Boris Kraft, Magnolia co-founder and CTO. "Magnolia 5 offers unparalleled ease of use, providing a unified way for staff to access content creation Apps from tablet as well as desktops.
