SaaS CMS

Studio New Media

A multi-tenant CMS platform agencies can rebrand entirely as their own — built on PHP/CodeIgniter, with centralized hosting control and a real path off legacy Joomla sites.

The Problem Going In

  • Multi-tenant architecture had to isolate each client properly, not just logically separate them
  • The platform needed genuine white-label capability, not a re-skinned template
  • Clients had legacy Joomla sites that needed migrating without losing content
  • Hosting needed centralized control across every client instance, not per-site management
  • Different user levels needed distinct, properly scoped access

What We Built

A multi-tenant SaaS CMS with full white-label capability, role-based access controls, automated Joomla migration tooling, and a centralized hosting management dashboard — built on PHP/CodeIgniter specifically for stability and long-term maintainability.
