Digital Workbench

The Digital Workbench is a content management and editing solution




As the backbone of McClatchy Interactive’s publishing system, the Digital Workbench allows site administrators to manipulate information into a customized look and feel.

The product is built to enhance and minimize the programming support required by most publishing systems.

While the Digital Workbench was initially built to serve the unique requirements of newspapers, those needs are no longer exclusive to large publishing companies. Many organizations are now trying to manage complex sites containing plenty of content and a mandate for frequent updates. Both tasks are easily performed by the Digital Workbench.
