BannerOS - The Best Alternative to WordPress

wordpress security issues

You have a number of choices when it comes to choosing a website content management system (CMS). A large percentage of the market uses WordPress. BannerOS was designed for those looking for an affordable alternative to WordPress.

Biggest Isn’t Always the Best
A product with the largest market share doesn't necessarily mean it's the best product for everyone's unique needs. Just ask users of a dominate desktop operating system that are forced to use it because everyone else does. Thankfully, when it comes to website management systems, you aren't forced to use a certain website platform just because it's more popular. You need the solution that's going to make you the most successful. Security, reliability and affordability are only some of the reasons BannerOS is a great alternative.

Security
When it comes to security, the most popular systems are also the most attacked. Fully open software systems like WordPress are easy to attack because their code can be examined for vulnerabilities. While taking advantage of the benefits of open source technology the source code of BannerOS is encoded meaning it can't be examined by would be hackers for vulnerabilities. While no system connected to the Internet is perfect, security is a high priority in BannerOS. In fact, that’s why BannerOS has an aggressive bi-weekly updates schedule to ensure that any security vulnerabilities are patched as soon as possible.


Free doesn’t always mean free. Yes, you can download WordPress for free and install, configure and support it yourself. Unless you are a WordPress expert, you’ll still need to hire someone to implement your website on the platform, have someone available to handle support issues and ensure that you have someone on call to handle emergencies. These services can get quite expensive.

Reliability
WordPress was created as a blogging system and wasn't originally designed for serious business websites. BannerOS was designed to help you turn your website into a powerful business tool from the beginning. It wasn't later adapted to handle such a task. That means it's free from legacy unrelated planning.

Wordpress may have an advantage with its myriad of third party plugins, but when it comes to important business functions, you want solutions that were designed to seamlessly work together. BannerOS comes with more than a dozen add-ons called Grips that handle everything from blogging to e-commerce. The last thing you want is a third party plugin bringing down your website, causing compatibility problems and costing you money.

Affordability & Support When you Need it
Free doesn’t always mean free. Yes, you can download WordPress for free and install, configure and support it yourself. Unless you are a WordPress expert, you’ll still need to hire someone to implement your website on the platform, have someone available to handle support issues and ensure that you have someone on call to handle emergencies. These services can get quite expensive.

With BannerOS you get support direct from the manufacturer included for no additional charge. If there's a bug it gets fixed in a timely manner because after all you're a paying customer. With the aggressive bi-weekly release cycle of improvements, you can ensure that you’ll always have the latest available version with the most current bug fixes, security releases and feature updates.

Visitor Profiling
BannerOS gives you the kind of insight only found in highly expensive systems used by companies with big budgets that can afford to pay data analysts to interpret the data. You can gain valuable insights because BannerOS allows you to quickly follow the path of a customer who visited your website, registered for your newsletter, received an email, clicked through to a blog article, read two other blog articles then clicked a link in one of the blogs to a product and made a purchase. Since BannerOS is made to work seamlessly with the Grips that perform essential business functions, all of this data is available to you without having to search long and hard plus spend the time putting all the data together then making sense of it.

Forget about trying that with Wordpress. Visitor Profiling is one of the unique features giving BannerOS a significant advantage over the competition. Lastly, If you currently use Wordpress and have been actively looking for an alternative, we can easily take your existing website and convert it to the BannerOS platform. Now that the last obstacle has been removed in making a change, what are you waiting for?
