Bitrix Releases ASP.NET-Technology Based Content Management System

Alexandria, VA, October 16, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Bitrix, Inc. announced today the release of a new content management system (CMS) – Bitrix Site Manager ASP.NET – targeted at website content editors, designers and developers who prefer using the Microsoft ASP.NET platform for their web projects. Bitrix has been specializing mainly in the development of PHP products, but now the company has made this customer-driven solution to create an alternative content management system that has a number of advantages inherent to products based on the ASP.NET platform.

Bitrix Site Manager ASP.NET offers Web2.0 features and has a user-friendly interface to meet all the emerging requirements in website content management use. The main features include an advanced Visual Editor, an easy-to-navigate Control Panel, multi-content Media Players, and flexible access settings. Bitrix Site Manager ASP.NET allows content managers and web designers to easily manage text and graphical content, create blogs and forums, upload photos, play video and audio files, create product catalogs, publish news, use RSS import, etc. Website developers, for their part, will appreciate the Smart ORM-System which helps minimize routine script writing and saves time that can be spent on creative work instead.

"Both PHP and ASP.NET platforms will be widely and successfully used in website development in the nearest future. That is why it is important to offer both options on the market, so that clients are not limited according to their choice of platform. We have combined all our experience and knowledge accumulated in the past few years with the advantages of the Microsoft .NET platform, and now we hope that content editors and web developers will enjoy the high performance standards and scalability of this new software. It's a pity there is no Noble Prize category for software product development. We would have certainly nominated our Site Manager ASP.NET version!" – said Dmitry Valyanov, president of Bitrix, Inc.

"We do appreciate the high standard of quality of the Bitrix Site Manager ASP.NET product that was fully developed and is constantly improved by the Bitrix team. Using Microsoft .NET technology, this software allows IT developers and content editors to create amazingly sophisticated web projects and enjoy usability and reliable performance in their everyday work." – Dmitry Khalin, Head of Strategic Technologies Dept., Microsoft Russia.

Bitrix, Inc. is planning to include additional modules and Web2.0 components to be able to satisfy the ever-growing demand in the CMS market. New features, system modifications and updates will be available through the SiteUpdate System. All Bitrix partners will be able to benefit from their partner status and purchase not only the PHP products but also the new Bitrix Site Manager ASP.NET with significant discounts. Bitrix clients will be able to download a free Bitrix Site Manager ASP.NET 30-day trial version before buying the product.
