Cons
"IIS could improve by Microsoft Windows improving the update services. We would like to be able to update all systems that are connected. The WSA service has to be in good order to accomplish this.""I am using an older version of Windows Server IIS and the general management and navigation to get something done is not as straightforward as I hope it to be. The interface could be improved.""At the moment, we have big problems with stability, and I'm not very happy at the moment. So, the stability could be improved.""Scalability issues and security concerns need attention from Microsoft.""Having no support for other than a Microsoft environment and programming languages limits the usage of IIS in many cases.""The cost is a bit too high.""Performance-wise, certain improvements in IIS are needed...IIS is not scalable. Its scalability is less.""The documentation of IIS could be better. They are not easily accessible. I had to use YouTube and other online resources to learn how to use the solution properly."

"Does not seem to be totally compatible with Windows 10 as of our current version.""WebCenter requires a lot of design effort to upload content to our regular system.""This solution needs to support translation into the Arabic language.""I would like them to add more Web 2.0 features.""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.""Its functions need more stability.""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.""The speed of the backup should be enhanced."
