What is MDPro?

MAXdev is proud to introduce MDPro, the most complete, flexible and reliable CMS available on the market.
A content management system (CMS) is an application that provides for the display and management of the contents of a web site. MDPro carries this many steps further by making this management simple yet powerful. Your MDPro powered web site can be updated in seconds without any knowledge of programming or HTML. MDPro can be configured to allow your site users to send news, comment on existing news, vote in polls, administer their own account via a simple graphical interface and much more.
Normally you must pay for technology this powerful with such simplicity. CMS software available today costs from several thousand dollars to several hundred thousand dollars. Thanks to the work of many open source development communities however, today there are a variety of no-cost CMS programs published under GNU/GPL.
