CMS Max

CMS Max is a managed platform for building and operating websites and online commerce. It brings site pages and content together with product catalogs, variants, pricing, checkout, customer and order management, fulfillment, and reporting. Maxforms supports branded forms for leads, applications, registrations, payments, uploads, and internal workflows. AI-assisted workflows can help with browser titles, meta descriptions, and product discovery content. Integrations include Clover, Google Analytics, HubSpot, Mailchimp, QuickBooks Online, TaxJar, Zapier, and POS systems. Developers can use documented APIs, webhooks, plugins, Zapier, and a tenant-scoped MCP server. The platform runs on web and offers API access and document management; it does not support multiple sites. Paid plans start at $40 a month, with a 30-day trial and no free plan. Lite targets small sites with limited plugins or eCommerce needs, while Pro adds unlimited products. Ultimate includes an hour of dedicated support; Enterprise adds white-glove onboarding and a dedicated account manager.
