SAGEFRAME CMS
SageFrame is an open source web development framework developed on top of ASP.NET 3.5 with service pack 1 technology and employs MIT License policy. It is currently developed under Community Edition i.e. Free Edition and can be easily downloaded from codeplex. The Professional Edition shall include many new features such as Multiple Server Support, Dynamic UI, T3 templating concept and many more.

Technology:
SageFrame is written in C and stores data commonly in Microsoft SQL Server. It makes use of new technologies such as Core support for Routing, LINQ, WCF, Silver Light, MVC, J-Query, etc.

History:
SageFrame was developed by Braindigit IT Solutions Pvt. Ltd. The company was established in 2008 by Nischal Man Pradhan at Kathmandu, Nepal. A branch office was established in Singapore in the year 2010. The idea was mainly conceived by computer engineers, Alok Pandey and Dinesh Hona, with an aspiration to develop an ultimate content management system, CMS, that could overcome the limitations inherent in the other current CMSes.

Releases:
The beta version of SageFrame was released on 8 March 2011 which mainly featured core functionality common to most web applications, such as session management, user authentication and templating. Upon reviewing the feedback from various beta users, pertinent amends were made for the next release. And on July 15, 2011, the finalized version of SageFrame (version 1.1) was released with the inclusion of new features such as multiple domain support, different admin interface, URL routing, Multilingual site support etc.

Users Perspective:
With so many powerful CMS in the .NET market such as DNN, Kentico, Orchard, Umbraco having already made a firm base, SageFrame is striving in the search of identity. With SageFrame, one can easily build web sites for various purposes such as E-commerce, Community, Forum, Blogs or even a Download Portal where large data needs to be handled simultaneously. With the help of the constituent modules and plugins, one can easily customize SageFrame to fit one’s needs. Furthermore, if I find the built-in features insufficient, for instance, or want more out of the product then I may develop such extensions that will enhance the core functionality to meet my requirements. The SageFrame team encourages such product-development and privileges users to demonstrate their product via SageFrame - Community page.
