Most corporate web infrastructures have developed piecemeal over the last decade or more. Individual projects will have been pursued by different business units using a disparate array of technologies. On an corporate level, the immediate results are unnecessarily high costs for licensing, infrastructure and administration, and a negative effect on overall uptime and reliability.

Equally worrying, is the fact that the company's main communication channel becomes a disjointed, disparate array of information islands that creates barriers to the efficient sharing of information and the immense potential value of a unified web presence.

Web consolidation is the obvious answer and eZ Publish is the intelligent solution:

Different groups within the company will have become wedded to the idiosyncrasies of their current CMS or web solution. Retraining and ongoing user support can rapidly escalate product costs.

There are plenty of reasons to choose and Open Source solution: avoiding vendor lock-in, simplified integration with the broader IT infrastructure and zero licensing cost that can deliver greater returns to scale the larger the project.
