We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We use a part of the solution called Acquia. The personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect fo the solution.""The feature I find most valuable is that Drupal is a framework and not only a CMS.""It is good for big projects.""You can build websites on it very quickly."

More Drupal Pros →

"The WebCenter Content is its most valuable feature. After we update a document in WebCenter Content, it can be update automatically in our intranet.""You can move workloads in between sub-servers so that you don't overload a portion of the server.""Oracle integrates well with other products to cover Big Data.""WebCenter's interface is very user-friendly.""Integration within the solution is very good.""It's a very scalable solution and the performance is pretty good. The scalability, in my opinion, is the biggest advantage.""A great solution for storing and searching large volumes of documents with easy access."

Cons
"It is a little bit simplified.""I think the support needs to improve, as well as the integration with tracking and analytics systems.""The user experience in designing layouts should be much easier or much more helpful.""Digital experience features like target, segmentation, and campaign management have a long way to go."

More Drupal Cons →

"I would like them to add more Web 2.0 features.""The solution should be offered in Persian. Right now, our version is in English, and there's a bit of a language barrier between the users and the product.""Its functions need more stability.""WebCenter requires a lot of design effort to upload content to our regular system.""This solution needs to support translation into the Arabic language.""There are many document management systems that offer pretty much the same functionalities but at a lower price. The product as such is pretty good. However, the pricing is not comparable. They need to adjust their pricing to be more competitive on the market.""The speed of the backup should be enhanced.""Does not seem to be totally compatible with Windows 10 as of our current version."

I chose Jive because it is one of the leading competitors in this space in respect to market share. Next, I chose Sharepoint because I have some history with Sharepoint.
