Using a Wiki to Power a Website

One of the ways our customers use CustomerVision BizWiki is as a way to power a company website.

The great thing about a wiki based website is that it provides a company with full control over the site without the need for any technical expertise and it enables a collaborative, dynamic way to create and update content. For the site owner, having an edit button on each page and the other wiki features such as Recent Changes, Page History and Discussion makes a wiki a very powerful and efficient content management system.

In this type of implementation the wiki is not configured to be an open, “Wikipedia style” wiki. CustomerVision BizWiki allows a company to control exactly who sees the wiki tools and who doesn’t, so site administrators will see the wiki tools and visitors won’t. So, even when wiki tools are only available to the core team, it still provides them with all the advantages of the wiki approach.

In addition to powering our own site, CustomerVision BizWiki powers a number of company websites such as:
