SQLCMS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: SQLCMS is an ASP.NET website that configures itself to work with any SQL Server database. It requires IIS and the .net Framework v3.5 to be installed. If you don't meet these requirements you can host a CMS for SQL Server on our website instead (or watch a demo to evaluate it).
