Brightspot is a great CMS tool for the Economist Intelligence Unit. Our prior content management system had so many limitations that the BSP CMS is incredibly refreshing and allows so much more leniency.

This has helped our analysts and subedit team to process and publish so much quicker but still quite efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
