STEM CMS is a content management system designed to simplify website management. It offers built-in tools for hosting, SEO, e-commerce, member portals, and more. With a single login, users can manage one or multiple websites efficiently, whether they’re small business owners, developers, or agencies.

The standard retail price is $50 per month per website. However, as part of our Kickstarter campaign, you can secure a full year of STEM CMS for a single website for just $99. For agencies and businesses managing multiple sites, we also offer reseller rates to help you create a new revenue stream.

You can back the campaign by visiting our Kickstarter page. By supporting us, you’ll secure an exclusive pricing deal and early access to STEM CMS features. Help us take website management to the next level!

STEM CMS comes with a comprehensive suite of built-in tools, including:

• Product catalogs
• Galleries
• E-commerce features
• Member portals
• Forms and surveys
• Blogging tools
• Event calendars

The product catalog allows you to display products organized by categories and subcategories. There is no limit to the number of products you can add, as long as they fit within your website’s disk space allocation. You can choose to integrate the catalog with our shopping cart and checkout components or enable a purchase order (PO) submission option, allowing customers to send orders via email without immediate payment.

STEM CMS includes powerful e-commerce tools to help you manage your online store:

• Product Catalogs: Organize products by categories and subcategories.
• Shopping Cart Integration: Seamlessly connect your product catalog to a shopping cart and checkout system.
• Authorize.net Integration: Securely process payments for your store directly within STEM CMS.
• Tax Automation with Avalara: Automatically calculate and apply accurate taxes at checkout.
• PO Submission: Allow customers to submit purchase orders via email without immediate payment.

The Member Portal allows you to create login-protected areas of your website for specific users or groups. Key features include:

• Restricted Content Access: Limit access to pages, downloads, or other content to registered members only.
• Profile Management: Members can manage their profiles and account information.
• Keap CRM Integration: Sync member data with Keap for advanced customer relationship management.

This feature is ideal for member-based associations, networking groups, or HOAs.

The Form Builder lets you create custom email forms for CTAs, contact pages, or any purpose where user input is needed. The Survey Builder allows you to design complex questionnaires for gathering detailed feedback. All form submissions are stored in the database and can be emailed to one or multiple recipients, ensuring your data is both secure and accessible.

STEM CMS includes built-in SEO tools to help your website rank higher in search engines. You can manage metadata (titles, descriptions, keywords), implement schema markup, and integrate Open Graph for improved social sharing—all included at no extra cost.

Version control in STEM CMS allows you to roll back any page to a previous state with a single click. Whether it’s a minor mistake or a significant overhaul gone wrong, version control ensures your edits are never permanent. It provides peace of mind, eliminates the risk of losing valuable content, and streamlines the process of making changes to your website.

The standard hosting package includes 5 GB of disk space, which covers your website's database, assets, and content. If you need additional space, it is available for $2 per GB per month.

When your website goes live, STEM CMS helps you order and set up an SSL certificate to ensure your site is secure. Our team ensures the process is simple and that your site is encrypted and trusted by visitors.

STEM CMS does not allow outside apps with server-side execution on its platform for security and performance reasons. However, you can host apps on your own server and integrate them into STEM CMS by linking to them or embedding them in your website using an i-frame. Additionally, STEM CMS can commission custom app development through our in-house development team. Custom app creation is billed hourly, ensuring your app aligns with our platform's security and performance standards. To protect the integrity of the system, outside developers are not allowed server or database.

No, STEM CMS does not provide FTP or SQL access. All uploading, HTML, and style adjustments can be fully managed within the CMS application. This approach enhances security and ensures that the platform remains user-friendly and consistent.

Yes! The reseller platform lets agencies manage client websites from one login. You can add websites, grant client access to their individual sites, and jump between projects easily. By becoming a reseller, you can leverage STEM CMS to generate a consistent revenue stream while providing valuable services to your clients.

Not yet. White labeling is not currently available on STEM CMS but is one of our key funding goals. Once implemented, agencies and resellers will be able to rebrand the platform to match their own branding and offer it as their own CMS solution.

Yes! STEM CMS allows you to manage multiple websites using a single secure login. You can easily add new sites for a reasonable per-site fee and switch between them seamlessly.
