How to Revive a Zombie Content Management System

Overview Even if a content management system (CMS) project succeeds, there is the very real danger that over time, it gradually slides into disrepair.

If this occurs, the CMS can enter a state of living death: a ‘zombie’ CMS. Eventually, the business is left with only two options: attempt to revive the CMS, or replace it with a new system.

In most cases, the technology underlying the CMS is still sound, and the system still has the technical capabilities required by the business.
