How to simplify the evaluation and selection of a content management system (CMS) is the focus of “How News Media Companies Should Select a CMS” a report by INMA released in October 2023.

This report grew from a project between INMA and the Google News Initiative (GNI) to produce a free CMS vendor selection tool.

In the report, we dive into identifying publisher needs, analysing news industry vendors, and burrowing into the right publisher/vendor fit.

“How News Media Companies Should Select a CMS” is a step-by-step guide to identifying stakeholders, what they need from a CMS, and what steps must be taken to ensure that every action and usage is considered.

This report is the perfect companion to the new vendor selection tool and town hall dedicated to the subject.
