This document discusses the differences between traditional content management systems (CMS) and collaborative content management systems (CCMS). A CCMS, like XWiki, has features that enable collaboration by default, such as comments, annotations, and single editing interfaces. In contrast, traditional CMS are focused more on simplified administration and workflows. The document also outlines when a CCMS like XWiki is advantageous, such as when collaboration needs are important or when less formal exchanges are desired within a company.
