CMS for .Net web applications

Question

Hi,

i am working on a web application that now requires a CMS.

Could you suggest me a product that grant integration with my existing application.

The latter is implemented using .Net framework 3.5 Linq to sql and SQL Server 2008

I may consider even not open source product (affordable price)

i want to create a Master page and allow the application's users to modify the content.

Ideally give them the ability to add controls such as image sliders (but this is not the main scope)

Main objective is the ability to modify the content usually text. Bu more is always better........

Thanks

Answer 1

SharePoint is the obvious answer, considering it's an ASP.NET application itself. It's free with Windows Server 2003 or 2008.

Answer 2

Graffiti is now Open Source. I'm not sure how it integrates with an existing application.

Answer 3

http://n2cms.com/ is very powerful cms that can be integrated with your application.

Answer 4

http://www.dotnetnuke.com/ is a good open source choice.

Answer 5

Umbraco is fantastic and free. Allowing you to integrate many plugins. If you are a developer you will probably fall in live as it offers a lot of integration.

Answer 6

DotNetNuke has a great (if not long winded) video intro and online demo so you can see how it works.
