The lecturers included CONTENTSERV experts and high-class technology and implementation partners: the leading translation-memory specialists SDL Language Technologies (Trados) and Across Systems GmbH, the database-publishing professionals InBetween GmbH, Magento implementation specialists from altantis media Gmbh to name only a few.

The scope of the topics ranged from „Product Information Management as the Basis for Efficient Cross Media Publishing“, „Software and Processes for Networked Media Production“ to „Cloud-capable Identity Management“. During the breaks, the over 100 visitors had the opportunity to ask the experts specific questions.

„The lectures were all super. I–ve gathered quite a few new ideas. I found the length of the lectures just right. The event was lively and the time passed very quickly“, summarized Susanna Brühl, Senior Application Engineer-Numeric at Nemetschek Allplan GmbH. This comment represents the generally positive response to a successful event from visitors coming from Austria, Switzerland and throughout Germany.
Presentation: Release CONTENTSERV CS11

The completely restructured CONTENTSERV Release CS11 was presented for the first time to an exclusive audience. The interfaces are more user-friendly and clean. Stringent structures and logic are found throughout all products and modules of the framework. The fully optimized and extended functions in the background make up an innovative main release, which has truly earned the new version numbering (from 5.3 to CS11).
Outstanding: Presentation of the Star Award

The long-awaited presentation of the Star Award was the final item in the official program of the informative day, before the OpenHouseNight drew to a close. Outstanding project implementations in five categories, customers, partners and developments of the previous year were distinguished with the coveted CONTENTSERV Star Award. Complex PIM/MAM and web-to-print and web-to-publish projects, as well as innovative, newly developed Products or features were nominated.
