EPiServer Project for Cadmium

I have now completed my first ever EPiServer site in conjuction with Cadmium, a web design shop based in Lorient, France. The developer experience with EPiServer is generally very good, and a good developer experience leads to fast project delivery.

That aside, EPiServer is still the most powerful Content Management System I have come across - it is in fact the only CMS I would consider recommending. There are far too many small market share CMS's that lock naive website owners into a single vendor or small pool of vendors, and this is a major problem in the website industry at present. If you become dissatisfied with the service from your website vendor, there are often few or no alternatives. This situation is very common because website vendors strive for your initial business, but have little interest in ongoing support.

Because EPiServer sites are ASP.NET applications, ASP.NET developers can quickly make the transition to EPiServer developer. When you need to modify your EPiServer site, not only do you have the full power of ASP.NET at your disposal, but you can choose from literally 1000's of development shops and contractors that specialise in ASP.NET and/or EPiServer. No more lock-in!
