“In order to manage the entire content at Condé Nast across different geographical regions, we needed to change our multi-platform strategy. We have therefore carefully examined the systems available on the market and found that vjoon K4 is ideal for our purposes. We needed an efficient workflow management system that was easy to integrate with our existing systems, so vjoon K4 was the best choice for us.”
