The need for successful cooperation has never been greater in the age of remote work. The blog by CKEditor titled Why your CMS isn't ready for collaboration yet: Exploring modern CMS collaboration features, authored by Kit Kriewaldt, sheds light on the challenges that content management systems (CMSs) face in keeping up with the evolving landscape of remote collaboration. Despite the widespread adoption of remote work, CMS platforms have lagged in providing seamless collaboration features, creating a roadblock for organizations aiming for streamlined workflows.

Traditionally, CMSs served as repositories for creating, storing, and managing digital content. Yet, their evolution has not kept pace with the demands of remote collaboration. While organizations have readily embraced communication tools like Zoom and Slack, these alone do not suffice for productive collaboration. The need for a unified digital space within the CMS where team members can co-create, edit, and revise content collaboratively, preferably in the cloud, has never been more apparent. However, many CMS platforms continue to lack these critical collaborative features.

To address this gap, four key features have been identified as essential for enhancing CMS collaboration by the blog post: a collaborative rich text editor, commenting functionality, track changes, and revision history. These features are crucial for ensuring that team members can effectively collaborate on content creation and editing within the CMS, irrespective of their geographical locations or time zones. Integrating modern rich text editors like CKEditor offers a promising solution to empower Drupal-based CMS platforms with the collaborative capabilities needed to meet the demands of remote work in the digital age.
