Some of the world’s largest magazine publishers have revitalised their fortunes using WoodWing software for content orchestration.

Content orchestration is when people and tools are optimized to work seamlessly together. It helps busy teams to plan, create, manage and distribute content - profitably and effectively.

For magazine publishers it can mean any number of process improvements - to make developing new digital products a profitable reality. 

  • Consolidating print and digital editors into a single team and workflow
  • Standardizing processes and tools across titles for more flexible use of resources
  • Using a ‘content-first’ approach to accelerate production for all platforms

Increase quality

More efficient workflows save time and money, freeing staff to focus on creativity and quality control.

Save time and money with a single team

It makes no sense to split work between print and digital teams. That creates extra work and inconsistency. A modern multichannel workflow is more operationally and cost-efficient.

  • Consolidate siloed editorial teams into a single unit, able to work across any brand or platform
  • Write a great story once and stream it effortlessly to print, online, or digital channels
  • Reduce duplicated work and improve resource utilization across titles

  • Eliminate time-sapping manual tasks with automation - from task allocation to design templates
  • See the progress of every title and task at a glance - as well as a full audit trail of changes

Add lucrative digital subscriptions

  • Leverage system efficiencies to diversify into digital without overextending resources
  • Easily prepare channel-neutral content that’s ever-ready for syndication
