Conquest (CMS)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Conquest is a comprehensive Web Content Management System that enables organizations to create and manage content once and re-use it in multiple sites, intranets and extranets. Conquest lets the business units ‘own’ their content across the lifecycle of the content, without any need for technical assistance.

With conquest organizations can

  • Centralize the layout, navigation and presentation of sites
  • Distribute the actual site development, deployment and on going management to the business units
  • Give content authors the ability to easily add, modify and approve content within the context of their web sites.


ConQuest was developed by Silkfort Technologies, a software development company based in chennai,india.
