The Web CMS Report 2008 looks at... Content re-use in EPiServer

EPiServer 5 is now ready

24-Sep-2007

After a long series of delays, Swedish Web CMS vendor EPiServer finally released version 5.0 of EPiServer CMS last week. A major reason for the delay is that EPiServer raised their ambitions during the process. Version 5 has massive changes for developers as it is based on .NET 3. There's also a complete new workflow based on the new Windows Workflow Foundation. Interestingly the release comes only shortly after the founder sold a majority of the company, and new owners came in with a new CEO. Despite the curious timing, according to EPiServer a few new customers are already live with EPiServer 5. With the major changes make sure you get competent resources on your project, ideally somebody who's already worked with Version 5.
