9. Emerging Markets ‘Firsts’ Content Management Systems (CMS): First fully-hosted CMS . Until now, the two best options for content management on the web were self-hosted open source products like Drupal or Joomla or expensive full-service proprietary systems. The TrUnity Platform meets the typical requirements for 90% of this market for no more than the cost of inexpensive web hosting ($8.00/month). Basic Website Hosting: As a website builder, the TrUnity solution eliminates the need for the ‘web guy’ and commercial hosting. At least 100 million basic HTML websites are costing users $10-$50/month. The technical requirements for updating a website on a commercial hosting service (FTP access) has resulted in an epidemic of expensive but stale, out-of-date websites. The TrUnity solution represents a wholesale paradigm shift in a market that has not changed significantly in ten years. Institutional Repository/Digital Archive: The TrUnity platform meets the international standard for digital archiving and it is the first fully hosted one . The reason so few museums, libraries, and Universities have not implemented web-based digital archives is because of the tremendous technical administrative and management costs of each installation. White-label Social Publishing: Each TrUnity community web site is in effect, its own social network. But with professional standards content management capabilities and cross platform content sharing and collaboration between communities. The TrUnity platform establishes a new benchmark in web publishing .
