Multi-purpose libraries
RevBase lets you create one or many Web-accessible solutions for your marketing and sales operations. You can create libraries to suit specific applications such as sales support, marketing asset management, customer service, creative review, or literature fulfillment on your internal or public Web site. Each solution can be linked to your public Web site, your Intranet, or your Extranet.

Multiple zones within a library
Your RevBase solution can have multiple zones (a zone is a Web-accessible, password-protected area within the system to serve a specific purpose, a specific set of users, or a unique application). Zones can be easily created and managed. To personalize your marketing content distribution solution, each zone can be configured with a unique portal page, search categories, rules, and look and feel.

Visual presentation of materials
RevBase is visual, so it's easy to identify exactly the right item. Each item in your system has a visual preview (a "thumbnail") which is displayed at various sizes as appropriate. When you enter your materials, you can choose your own preview image, use a representative icon, or have the marketing content distribution system generate a preview for you (applies to selected file types).

Searchable
Your RevBase solution is easily searched by a powerful category-based and keyword search system. Each item can be a member of one or multiple groups. Visitors use these groups to quickly zero-in on the item(s) they need. Keywords can be used alone or in conjunction with the category search facility.

Customizable portal page
Your solution has one or more configurable portal pages, which are the starting points for visitors. From this page users can search materials, see one or more featured items, access the new materials list, get user tips, and more. This page is easily branded with your identity, company ID, and graphical design elements. You can even add HTML code and access to other Web sites and systems.

Gallery view

Detail view
The Detail View displays a mid-sized preview of the selected item, plus all information you've chosen to display in association with that item.
