What is DotNetNuke?

DotNetNuke is an open-source content management system ideal for creating and deploying projects such as commercial websites, corporate intranets and extranets, and online publishing portals. DotNetNuke is built on a Microsoft ASP.NET (VB.NET) platform, and is easily installed and hosted with all of our Windows Hosting Plans.

Some benefits that the DotNetNuke content management system includes are greater site consistency, improved site navigation, streamlined authoring process, faster turnaround time for new pages and changes, increased site flexibility, support for decentralised authoring, increased security, reduced duplication of information, greater capacity for growth, and reduced site maintenance costs.

DotNetNuke Management

You can perform nearly all of your DNN site building with a web browser and do not require any special development tools.

DotNetNuke 5.0 as WebSite Content Management System

  Unlike 4.9.1, DNN 5.0 was a massive change that involved hundreds of bug fixes, changes and enhancements. A large number of the bug fixes and a few of the changes were back ported to the 4.8.x and 4.9.x branches, however there are still many bug fixes and enhancements which are only available in DNN 5.
  DotNetNuke 5.0 is the culmination of over a year of development and testing. Without a doubt this is the most tested version of DotNetNuke ever released.
