Case Study: CMS Law achieves unified multilingual, multisite publishing and improved editor productivity with Ibexa

CMS upgraded to the latest version of eZ Platform to ensure long term support, improved performance and provide a better user experience for editors

CMS Legal Services, the central web, marketing and tech unit for CMS (one of the world’s largest law firms with 70+ offices in 40+ countries), needed to modernize a sprawling set of sites so each country could publish jurisdiction‑specific, multilingual content. Key challenges included consolidating multiple sites, supporting translations and regional “child” sites, managing 40+ editors with granular permissions and workflows, and moving to a long‑term supported platform with better performance—especially for mobile.

Working with ETECTURE, CMS migrated to the latest eZ Platform, leveraging its multisite/multilingual features plus the Landing Page and Form Builders, role-based workflows, and drag‑and‑drop editing. The result is a single trusted content repository that makes localization and sharing easier, reduces template overhead, speeds mobile downloads, minimizes editor training, and delivers a future‑proof, long‑term supported publishing platform.
