One CMS, multiple websites, single sign-on

With a single install, the CMS supports multiple websites, each with its own set of templates and user access level controls. This means there is only one codebase to maintain, which greatly simplifies the maintenance efforts for the client.

User management is integrated across all the websites, so that administrators and front-end users are able to use a single login for the ASEF websites. No longer is there a need for users using more than one of the ASEF websites to remember multiple sets of usernames and passwords.

Even with the deep customisation and power enhancements, the ease of future upgrades of the Joomla! core codebase is kept possible, through strict adherence to the standards of the Joomla! API so that the Joomla! core codebase is not changed in any way.
