Sitecore’s module portfolio numbers a wide range of different standard modules that have been developed separately to solve specific requirements. Many of Sitecore’s certified modules have originally been developed by Pentia.
With the launch of the new version of Sitecore, version 6.0, a wide range of Sitecore’s modules have been included as a part of the basic license. Below is a short presentation of the most popular Sitecore Modules that are still available as add-on modules.
Sitecore SharePoint Connector
If you already have a SharePoint/MOSS2007 installation in connection with document management or if you are evaluating implementing one, then you should look at Sitecore’s SharePoint Connector module, which gives you the possibility to publish your documents and assets from SharePoint directly onto your website, intranet or extranet.
Sitecore SEO
Sitecore SEO module (Search Engine Optimization) gives you the possibility to publish search engine optimized content on your website. With the module, you can make various checks to your content, as well as seeing how search engines view you, whose are linking to you, as well as information regarding search terms. It also gives you the possibility to analyze how your site performs in relation to your competitors.
Sitecore Newsletter
Sitecore Newsletter module enables you to send out and administer newsletters on your website in a quick and simple m. As well as the “normal” newsletter management and distribution, the module also offers a wide range of statistics opportunities, where among other things, you can view which subscribers have opened the newsletter, how many have clicked onto your website and much more.
If you require high level management and distribution of newsletters, Pentia recommend that you evaluate a dedicated system designed to handle “mass distribution”.
Sitecore Statcenter
Sitecore Statcenter is fully integrated with Sitecore and delivers a quick and simple overview of the most requested statistics information you may require on a daily basis.
Pentia also recommends Google Analytics, which is free, and as with Sitecore Statcenter gives a wide range of extended statistics opportunities.
