Re: Difference between a Knowledge Base and a CMS?

["Raj Machhan" <raj -dot- machhan -at- gmail -dot- com>]

The answers provided here are very much relevant. Basically, a CMS provides
you many more functionalities compared to a knowledge base. I would even say
that a CMS, whether at the enterprise level, for the web, or as an in-house
asset management and versioning tool, is a custom knowledge base, with
functionality added to answer the needs of the target users.
