I have worked with just about every other CMS solutions out there and have found that FARCRY CMS offers a superior experience with far more features and options than others and none of them offer the level of customization that Farcry allows. If you would like to move your existing web site to this framework and save the expense of hiring a web developer every time you need to make a change, contact us and we will show you how this can become a reality.
FarCry Content Management System
The FarCry Content Management System (CMS), a Windows based solution that is flexible and highly scalable, featuring support for enterprise level databases such as Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle. FarCry has excellent in-built security and is designed to allow multiple levels of users, making it an excellent solution for both external and internal web sites (Intranets). FarCry is in use by many global companies.
FarCry is an open source CMS, meaning it has no license cost and is developed and supported by an active network of global developers, similar to the Mozilla Firefox browser. Unlike most open source projects however, FarCry has commercial support services available as the product was originally developed as a commercial product by Sydney development company Daemon, who continue to oversee its open source development.
As the CMS is web browser based, administration of the web site may be performed at any physical location, with access available through a password protected administration area. FarCry allows editing of general content across the web site, including the addition of new pages and new menu items. It features a simplified page editing system that includes the ability to add text, images, documents and web links on the pages of the web site. For this reason, the web site is best edited by internal staff that have at least some basic desktop publishing experience.
FarCry is a great solution for organizations where there are different levels of users. For instance, lower level users can be limited to editing only specific pages, requiring the administrator to approve these new pages before they appear on the public site. There is also an ability to set up customised editing of the web site, making it quicker, easier and more fool-proof to enter repetitive content such as the entry of news articles. This is performed by utilising quick and easy to complete customised online forms to enter required information that are then applied to a standard template for display on the web site. This ability to customise also allows WebBailey to add additional features to the CMS, such as member management, online forums, and document management for instance.
Why FarCry?
Key reasons include:- The platform is a true enterprise level CMS, built on world’s best practice technology, ensuring longevity.
- Being an open source solution, the code base can be accessed, developed and managed by thousands of web developers around the globe, meaning you have true developer flexibility and are not locked in to having to use a specific agency’s proprietary system. • Numerous web development firms exist in Australia utilising this technology. With so many websites being delivered on the FarCry platform, you have options with choice of developers. FarCry really is a platform in which you can take your website and application functionality and move it to another vendor for continued development, maintenance and support.
- It also much more than just a CMS, providing a solid web application platform to build and deploy rich internet applications.

- It is not a propriety system with limited growth, customers and developers; with FarCry you do have choice in service providers for both development, and support and maintenance. This is a smart choice for business and makes the FarCry platform low-risk.
