NewsForge: UNC Healthcare Finds Plone Easy to Swallow

“At the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and
affiliated hospitals, intranet and Web site users felt like they
were ‘visiting a foreign land’ each time they landed on a different
department, says UNC Healthcare IT staff director Jim Walsh. Each
department had it own look and feel, which made a hodge-podge for
people going from site to site to perform searches and look up
information. Today, however, after a revamp that included migration
to the Plone open source content management system, site visitors
have sense of a unified organization, and UNC staff feel at home
with the new technology. Walsh knew he was going to have to make a
change in the corporate intranet and outward-facing Internet. “We
needed to have a single unified presence, both internal and
external, for all our customers.”
