Live CMS

Live CMS (L5) is a content management system created by Achiga. It is primarily funded and used by Starwood Hotels and Resorts. This SaaS framework can create or edit content and update websites with videos, photos, documents and more. Live CMS is a series of independent modules or tools that are used in conjunction to manage online marketing campaigns, build brand-approved websites, landing pages, and other digital content.

THE EVOLUTION OF LIVE CMS

At its heart, the core structure of Live CMS’s modular system has not changed in 5 years. However as the technology and hardware has evolved so has the application’s visual interface had to evolve. Some key elements of this evolution were better user accessibility, more intuitive menu systems and cues, drag and drop functionality and advanced CSS styling tools.

I have been engaged in the growth of Live CMS from fledgling content manager to powerful web management tool. While working at Achiga I brainstormed on UX, created UI patterns and wireframes, as well as designing and art directed many client customized applications.
