Unique Features
True cross-platform capability - including print
Some CMS developers claim to have true cross-platform functionality, but don't actually deliver on the print side. The SmartCatalog System is a proven web and print technology. Creating books and web pages is as easy as pressing a button. There is no .html code to clean up or additional formatting to perform.
Better documents with less work
SmartCatalog is configured to create fully functioning documents including automatically generated indexes, tables of contents and cross-referencing. You save time and increase accuracy at every turn.
Custom Templates
SmartCatalog recreates the template from the book you are using now and loads it into the system. The output generated matches your printed catalog exactly.
Administrator Dashboard
With SmartCatalog, the Project Manager can see the status of all jobs at one time. No waiting for e.mails or checking your in box. One glance tells you where all your files are and who's working on them-even down to the hour and minute of the day!
Easy to use search features
When students and parents look at online catalogs, their number one destination is degree programs. SmartCatalog gets them to the degree they are seeking without having to go to a secondary search page. The search capability is on every page, and so is the table of contents.
Integration with Student Information Systems
Get more use out of all your course information through integrating the SmartCatalog system with proprietary and home-grown systems. The web-services module of SmartCatalog minimizes custom development and leverages content value. Students get the information they need, now.
Track changes word for word
What's the use of a CMS that doesn't track every change to every word? Can you imagine the time your staff would spend if they had to check changes through comparative reading? SmartCatalog recognizes that every change is significant, no matter how small it might seem.
Support
SmartCatalog is powered by Author-It--a software used by institutions and organizations around the world, including the US Army and Navy. Its functionality has been proven in the market place and support is only ever a keyboard shortcut away. From local user groups to online help to on campus and training, the support is unmatched.
SmartCatalog has been creating cross-platform curriculum publications since 1996. Our depth of experience in all aspects of catalog management makes your job easier and getting the project done on time a snap.
