Tiki marketing materials

Tiki is a web-based, multilingual, wiki-based, content management system (CMS) with a tightly integrated set of comprehensive groupware features. Tiki is free and open source software, created by a large, international development team.

Tiki includes hundreds of deeply integrated features. Unlike other solutions, Tiki “does it all.” You do not need to find other modules or add-ons to fill in the missing pieces. With its “all-in-one” design, Tiki can easily create all types of collaborative applications: websites, portals, knowledge bases, intranets, extranets, and more. With an enormous feature set, and a web-based, administration interface, Tiki has both the features you require and the ease-of-configuration that you desire. Because of its rich feature set and active developer community, Tiki will meet all of your requirements, now and in the future.
