LiveWhale is a content management system for higher education

Page editing made so simple that it’s almost boring.

You want to make a change to a Web page. How hard can that be? In LiveWhale it's a one-click process.

Manage news, events, galleries, Web forms, and (a lot) more.

There's more to content management than just page editing. LiveWhale's back end tools allow users and groups throughout your institution to easily manage dynamic content of all types.

Share everything (or at least as much as you want).

Create news, events, images and more and make them available throughout your institution. And if you don't have the time to keep a lot of content up to date (imagine that!), it's easy to find and use community-created content.

Built-in accessibility checking.

LiveWhale performs constant, on-the-fly compliance checks using common accessibility standards. The accessibility rating of each page of your site is clearly visible, making it easy to ensure your site caters to users with disabilities.

More than easy to use—it’s fun to use.

Content management shouldn't be drudgery. LiveWhale's interfaces are designed for clarity and efficiency, and are intended to make site maintenance an enjoyable process. Even our error messages are friendly!

Free upgrades and unlimited tech support for life.

Having all our clients on the same version means the improvements we make to our codebase can be shared with all our clients. That's why upgrades to LiveWhale are always free.

The same goes for tech support. If you're having a hard time using our system, that's our problem too, and we want to hear about it. So every LiveWhale account comes with unlimited e-mail tech support.

Built for Web 2.0
(and Web 2.8, and Web 3.4).

Tagging, sharing, and content reuse are the building blocks of a LiveWhale-powered site. LiveWhale both consumes and produces RSS and ICAL feeds, allowing you to import content from anywhere on the Web— and easily syndicate your own content for subscription with Web standards.

Crystal clear pricing and licensing agreements.

It’s often hard to figure out how much a commercial CMS actually costs— and hidden fees for support, licensing, or upgrades can lead to CMS implementations that exceed their sticker price. Not with LiveWhale. Our white paper includes complete information about LiveWhale's pricing.

Designed by and for human beings.
