CMS stands for Content Management System and refers to a platform where people who manage an organization’s website can log in to edit and publish content.
Within a content management system, site editors can do things like control the site navigation, add or update text content, upload images, and build new pages. Examples of popular CMS’s include WordPress, Joomla, Sitecore, Episerver, Ektron, and Umbraco.
There are different types of CMS. A web content management system (WCM or WCMS) is designed to support the management of the content of Web pages. Meanwhile a digital asset management system manages content with clearly defined author or ownership, such as documents, movies, pictures, phone numbers, and scientific data.
