Two years ago I began a process to consider how best to evolve CMSReport.com beyond where it is today. I've known for some time that I needed to take some risks, get out of my comfort zone, and perhaps change how I maintain and run the site. Given the opportunity and in the spirit of taking risks I've decided to no longer run CMS Report on Drupal. That's right, after running this site on Drupal for more than six years on Drupal I've decided to use another content management system.

Cloud CMS is proud to announce the immediate availability of drivers for iOS, Android and popular JavaScript/HTML5 frameworks including jQuery Mobile, Sencha Touch, Appcelerator Titanium and PhoneGap.

With this release, Cloud CMS enables businesses to quickly and cost-effectively manage and publish content for the real-time needs of their mobile applications.

The Cloud CMS drivers are easy-to-use native code libraries for mobile development.  They can be plugged into new or existing mobile applications to provide an important foundation to help your business orchestrate its mobile strategy.
