In their own words
Cloud CMS
Cloud CMS is an editorial platform for creating, approving, and publishing content to customer-facing applications in real time. Editors work in rich-text forms, approve material, and publish it with a click. Gitana tracks content creation, changes, and deletions, with visual comparison, branching, merging, and reverting. Teams can schedule future releases for automatic publication and use hot-fix support. Content searches can span branches and projects through full-text or structured queries, with exports to CSV, Excel, or ZIP. Event-driven actions, rules, scripts, emails, and webhooks can respond to changes in content and other platform objects. The API uses OAuth 2.0 over HTTP or HTTPS and covers publishing, workflow, security, versioning, search, and analytics. Cloud CMS is offered as a hosted subscription or Docker containers for on-premise or private-cloud deployment using Docker and Kubernetes. The pricing model is freemium, with a free Developer Edition and paid plans from $220/mo. The maker documents role-based authorization, SSO, MFA, encrypted storage, TLS, and continuous backups. The container registry is accessible only to customers with a purchased commercial license.
