New CMS launches, designed by and for clients

hb3 logoAfter a year of intensive development work, we are delighted to be launching our new Content Management System, Hummingbird 3.0 (HB3), this month.

The new CMS builds on the foundations of our original Hummingbird platform, but is completely re-vamped to offer a powerful, cost-effective and future-proofed solution.

Unlike our previous CMS, which were created as stand-alone platforms, HB3 runs from a central core that can be updated, amended and improved centrally and then rolled out to all users.

This ensures that all clients benefit from improvements and updates – ensuring that your website keeps pace with changing technology without the need of expensive re-development.

The platform has been developed with the client view at the heart of it – we’ve taken ideas, input and experience from a number of clients in our key sectors and input them into the CMS to ensure the system works the way we know works for you.

For our charity clients, there are powerful fundraising, membership, donation and income management tools. We have bespoke systems for auctioneer clients (Auction Box) that have a proven track record of delivering record sales for our users.

The whole user-experience has been overhauled to make it one of the most intuitive and user-friendly CMS’s available – with total control over all content through simple, user-focussed interfaces.

HB3 offers:

  • Annual updates automatically rolled out
  • Bespoked plug-ins to deliver functionality specifically for your organisation
  • Integration with leading fundraising, ticketing and membership systems
  • Responsive layout as standard
  • Simple re-skinning, allowing you to completely redesign the look and feel of your site without changing the CMS
  • Powerful image and media editing and management tools
  • Drag-and-drop page templating allowing you to simply create your own layouts
  • The opportunity to plug-in new functionality as required or as it is developed
  • Sector-specific plug-ins for charities, arts organisations and auctioneers
  • And much more

The first HB3 sites are being rolled out at the end of March. If you want to book a no-obligation demonstration of the new Hummingbird 3.0 CMS, contact us on 0117 3250091 or claires@tickboxmarketing.co.uk and we will get back to you to arrange a viewing.
