Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Wordpress, Adobe and others in Web Content Management."The feature I find most valuable is that Drupal is a framework and not only a CMS."
"It is good for big projects."
"We use a part of the solution called Acquia. The personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect fo the solution."
"You can build websites on it very quickly."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable features are the Integrations, web site, and search."
"For SharePoint, I believe the most valuable feature is the customization and allowing you to share and edit files and documents. Being able to share externally and the precise administration of the files in terms of giving permissions and controlling who has access to what is a very good feature."
"The ability to have version control and co-editing is vital to our workflows."
"Document flows, storage, and numbering take off the actions for checking and assigning the numbering and running around with approvals and pre-approvals."
"It has good integration with other MS products."
"Combined reports and data with timeline tracking."
"Information is much more readily available."
"I think the support needs to improve, as well as the integration with tracking and analytics systems."
"It is a little bit simplified."
"Digital experience features like target, segmentation, and campaign management have a long way to go."
"The user experience in designing layouts should be much easier or much more helpful."
"It has worked very well for me. It seems like they've improved everything. I don't have any cons about it as such, but I don't think they have a talk-to-text, speech-to-text, or speech-to-type. That would be cool for accessibility."
"There's a challenge with desktop applications synchronizing with online documents in real-time. If someone is working on a document in the desktop version of Excel, for example, and someone else is editing the same document online, the changes won't sync immediately. That's the only real challenge we've encountered."
"Integration needs to be more straightforward, particularly with Azure. SharePoint also needs a more comprehensive introductory course for users."
"We would like more security features, like automating."
"One issue is that when users mistakenly hide files or set permissions incorrectly, it can lead to files becoming inaccessible, requiring intervention from Microsoft support to resolve."
"The initial setup is complex and has room for improvement."
"Using SharePoint is difficult."
"Document management and the ability to easily integrate single sign-on (SSO) are areas for improvement in SharePoint."
