I think you have gotten some pretty good advice here from other folks. As has been pointed out, the output side is most important, but often forgotten is the backend or administrative side. My Department uses Tridion, which produces pretty accessible pages, however, the backend is one of the most inaccessible applications I have ever tried to use. And, of course, our person in charge of updating our site, is a screen reader user!

Subject: [WebAIM] CMS Options

Good morning!

Our college is still looking for options to replace our ancient Joomla website. We've done some demos with Cascade Server (Hannon Hill), OUCampus (OmniUpdate), and TerminalFour. Do any of you have experience with any of these three vendors when it comes to accessibility, usability and responsiveness? I've received some feedback from users on the listserv before about Cascade and OUCampus, with more positive comments on OUCampus. Has anyone reviewed or implemented TerminalFour? We'd like to find a solution on which we can fairly easily train our content managers, too.

Thanks for any information or testimonials you may have!
Have a wonderful weekend,
