We've been watching Flash slowly move across the radar screens of CMS user interface afficionadoes. Now Ektron announces a Flash-based interface to its popular eWebEditPro WYSIWYG browser widget. Ektron's core ActiveX offering, which is OEMed into several major CMS packages, heretofore only ran on Windows. So one of the first major benefits of the Flash GUI, if it works as touted, will be to bring more cross-browser compatibility to the marketplace. Java applets theoretically offer this, but they can be buggy and not as customizable. In the long run, we think Flash holds great promise for surpassing even Word as an editing environment.

Our Customers Say
"There is really no comparison between the level of detail and insight I find in the Real Story Group publications and other resources. Why is The Web CMS Research so good? First, Real Story Group avoids fads and takes a very measured, grounded analysis of changes going on in the web marketplace. Second, Real Story Group evaluates solutions holistically, looking at more than the software itself and considering the vendor's business viability. Third, Real Story Group can't be beat for having a conceptual grasp of what is really important in these products, and how they actually get deployed, from small implementations to enterprise scale. It's this thorough, totally grounded perspective that makes Real Story Group research an indispensable tool in my business."
