The publishing platform for media companies: Glide

Cloud-based content management system for publishers Glide lets you build faster — |||

Glide Publishing Platform (GPP) is a publisher-ready, cloud-native content management system (CMS) for publishers created by publishing industry professionals. Glide removes content management obstacles and lets you focus on what really matters – content excellence.

GPP enables publishers to move their technology resources to the things that matter – the unique products their customers love – rather than wasting time and money reinventing a CMS.

Glide is an enterprise-grade SaaS platform which gets you off the CMS maintenance merry-go-round.

It is not a generic starter CMS like WordPress or Drupal which need endless and frustrating development efforts to make them fit for purpose for content businesses, editorial users and – most importantly – their readerships and audiences.

Your CMS is not your product your content and your customer interaction is, be it a website, an app or an Alexa skill. It’s about readers and writers, and making that link as easy as possible.
