Perfect Solution for Preventing Non-Designers from Breaking a Website! [Posted on 2007-04-22]
If you design website with Dreamweaver (works with non-Dreamweaver sites, but without Dreamweaver's integrated templates capability that locks portions of the page) that others will need to edit...AND you don't want them to break it, then Contribute is the product for you!

Allows you set user permissions that control what a user can edit, how they can edit a page, how they (and if they) can add images, whether they can publish or their draft needs reviewed, and saves rollback copies so any damage can be undone!

The user interface is easy and user-friendly - the user browses the site they wish to edit (and have permission to do so) and then edits the page. Simple.

This works best for the editor of a site created and maintained by Dreamweaver. And, it will make every Dreamweaver designer happier, healthier, and allow for the opportunity to spend your time making money designing a new site as opposed to the drudgery of continually editing an old site.

This is a great solution for non-profit clients who want to be able to update at will, but have too small a budget to afford a full web application design or can't afford to pay a web designer to continually make changes and updates to the content.

Newest version of Contribute [Posted on 2008-07-22]
Not bad for ease of connecting and editing. the WYSIWYG is not always accurate and sometimes takes several attempts to make it come out right, and you should check your final product on all browsers, IE, Firefox and Safari. Still a little clunky to format, and tricky to work with pictures. In fact the new version seems to have more steps to get a final product, and some features that made sizing and placement easier are gone, or more difficult to do. But this version is more stable, haven't crashed it nearly as often. It's ok, and certainly much more professional than some other web page editing products I've worked with.
