CMS Professional Services

New Witness Media, Inc. consultants have over 9 years of individual Enterprise level Web Content Management & CMS Consulting Experience

Our strongest services offering is Web Content Management WCM/CMS Consulting. We believe that every Enterprise organization needs their pages, processes and documents under the control of a WCM or CMS tool. WCM/CMS is here to stay and we can help you introduce WCM/CMS technology and processes throughout your organization.

New Witness Media, Inc. founder Jason Hoyt was the very first consultant to install and configure Serena Collage (for NetObjects, Inc. and then for Merant, Inc.) for a client - this was back in 1999 when Collage was first developed by NetObjects, Inc. Before starting New Witness Media, Inc. Mr. Hoyt was a Systems Engineer for Merant, Inc., which developed versions 2.x, 3.x, 4.x and now 5.1 of the Collage Web Content Management solution. Mr. Hoyt has traveled to Germany, England and Australia as well as around the U.S.A. implementing and training clients and Merant employees on the Serena Collage® WCM solution. Before leaving Merant, Inc. in the spring of 2003, he co-authored Merant, Inc.'s internal certification course.

As a result of Serena's recent EOL statements regarding the Serena Collage cms product, we've recently updated our professional services offerings and removed Serena Collage-specific services. Instead, NWM is offering Collage migration services and CMS services related to other vendor products. We will help research the best CMS replacement and help clients to migrate to the new server and platform as painlessly as possible.
