Why Immediacy?

Immediacy is acknowledged as one of the leading UK .NET content management solutions. We have over 300 major corporate and government clients and consistently sell 50% more content management systems than our nearest UK competitor.

There is a reason for our success in what is a very competitive marketplace.

We have listened very closely to what our customers want and have produced software that solves the real problems of creating and managing world class websites and intranets.

Our acquisition by the Mediasurface group has made us part of the largest content management company in the UK and enabled us to quickly expand our operations into global markets.

This is a very exciting time for everyone involved with Immediacy software.

We know that despite our success we can't afford to be complacent. We re-invest heavily in R&D and use bleeding-edge "Agile" software development methodologies to ensure that our software delivers the maximum competitive advantages to our customers now and in the future.

Improved User Experience

Good content management ensures valid, consistent, and up-to-date communication. This in turn improves customer satisfaction and customer retention.

Better Participation

The intuitive nature of Immediacy CMS Editor makes it easy for anyone who has used standard office applications. Experience has shown that most users need little or no technical skill or training with the product to be able to create great pages. This encourages participation and use, leading in turn to better quality information.

Better Control

With comprehensive configurable administration, and permission properties, management is as detailed as the setting requires. The approval process allows administrators and coordinators to retain precise control over more critical areas of content.

Consistent Look and Feel

The use of templates allows contributors to create and enter new content directly into designed template pages. The process provides the editor with a complete WYSIWYG editing environment, but protects areas of the page that are not for general editing. This creates the right balance between editorial control and design coherence. It ensures that the final output conforms to agreed design principles.

Rapid delivery

Using the Immediacy CMS it is quite feasible to modify or add new content, have it approved, and publish it, all within a few minutes. This delivers cost effective communication and means that the business objectives for the site can be more easily achieved.

Cost Effective

Rather than requiring specialist skills Immediacy makes authoring available to everyone. The originator of the material can enter the information directly, inheriting the default design, placing images, tables and information without outside involvement. The approval process is streamlined and built into the system. Final publishing, including to remote sites, is a single button process. Besides being much faster, this is a much more cost-effective approach to content management

Customer Quote


"The Immediacy CMS has provided Avis with a much improved tool for managing their Intranet content and layout. The system was chosen for its ease of use, as we wanted our user community to manage their own data and keep IT out of the loop as much as possible. Our developers have found the product easy to work with, providing us with savings in the time it takes to set up the site. The ability to produce our own ASP plug-ins has proved invaluable."
