The digital world is constantly evolving and, today more than ever, having a website is fundamental for every business. The website is the company's online business card and is a fundamental means of communication towards its customers and the outside world. But how do you choose the best solution for portal development? Use a CMS, such as WordPress, or opt for a completely customized solution? In this article, we will examine the differences between these two approaches and explain how our proprietary technology can help you get the most out of your digital investments.



Who is Glacom (Global Accelerationist Company)?


Glacom is a company specialized in 360-degree business development and growth. We offer communication and online visibility services, custom software construction, optimization and digitalization of business processes, and financial consultancy to support the investments made.




CMS vs custom website



A CMS like WordPress is a very popular and convenient platform for creating websites. Thanks to its vast community of developers and the availability of a wide range of plugins and themes, it can offer many useful features at an affordable price.

However, this tool can also have some limitations, for example in terms of customization or performance. Furthermore, most sites developed with WordPress (or similar) have a standardized structure and therefore may appear less distinctive compared to competitors.

On the other hand, if you choose to rely on a company specialized in the creation of customized digital solutions like Glacom, you can obtain a completely tailor-made portal, created to satisfy the specific needs of your business.


But what are the differences compared to creating a website with Wordpress?

The proprietary technology developed by Glacom: GlacomCMS is able to guarantee maximum customization, offer advanced features such as tailor-made order management or the creation of a 3D catalog, and guarantees much higher performance compared to a system like WordPress. Furthermore, GlacomCMS technology allows for the development of digital solutions significantly faster than traditional development methods, thanks to the modularity of the platform which allows working on a solid and already tested base.

But what are the actual development times? According to our data, the creation of a tailor-made website with GlacomCMS technology takes on average between 4 and 8 weeks, depending on the complexity of the project, while the same tool but with some limitations developed with a CMS like WordPress can take from 6 to 12 weeks to be completely finished. Additionally, the possibility of custom development with GlacomCMS technology guarantees superior performance and a better user experience compared to CMS like WordPress.

But let's leave room for the facts; if you are interested in discovering the actual advantages that a custom website developed with GlacomCMS technology can bring, we invite you to visit the websites of some of our clients and experience the user experience firsthand.
