Liferay Digital Experience Platform Stability

Bhavin Panchani - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Executive Officer at IGNEK

It is a stable solution. Any product will have some bugs, but when our company opens up a ticket or raises our concerns with Liferay's support team, they solve it very quickly if we have the product's licensed version. The tool is extremely stable.

As with any product, there are stability issues at times. However, working side by side with the official support, we minimized any risk to reduce the business impact as much as possible.

Liferay is not a young solution. It is a very mature product. It has been around since about 2007. Because it is mature it is very stable. From time-to-time, you may need to call support if something does not work as it should. But the company has good support.

We did encounter stability issues. The initial version of 6.2 had stability issues. Later, with the advance builds, it became better.

Liferay Enterprise Edition releases are very stable. They keep a list of known issues just like any other software. There were very rare incidents when my team faced a bug in the product and we had to approach Liferay for a resolution.

Yes as this is open source so don't see its big hurdle here.

I have encountered stability issues during the upgrade process from 5.2 EE to 6.1.XX EE. There are always issues with Social Office.

We are using Enterprise Edition 6 and I know that it is not the latest edition available, but so far, this edition of this solution is stable. We have not experienced any issues. Later, with an increased number of users, there may be some issues. We don't know, but for now, it's good.

Anyone in Tanzania who wants to register for a business license has to log into the system. There are many users. Just to give you some statistics 30,000 people have applied for business licenses and 8,000 have been issued. The remainder 20,000+ are waiting for their applications that are still in the workflow.

For fresh installations, no significant issues have been noted. However, there are major issues when migrating from older versions.

This one is a major release from the previous one with lots of changes at the API level and at the environment level, so a certain level of issues with stability are observed with existing plugins, some APIs, hooks and audience targeting.

Stability is very dependent on architecture and testing. Proper architecture and testing directly relates to the stability of the product. This includes error handling design.

We have stability issues only when the developers don't follow the Liferay guidelines and best practices.

Head Developer at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

We had some stability issues, but only in upgrades. However, I would say this is changing as the product matures.

Liferay 7 is changing a lot with time, and they put a lot of effort to avoid breaking code.

The last big change, from Liferay 6 to 7, was properly documented and migration was simple enough. Minor upgrades have caused issues though.

Nevertheless, I need to say that most issues I encountered were already corrected and I have never found stability problems in running servers.

Stability is very well maintained by Liferay. Whenever they fix any issues, they publish it to the community, so we can apply a patch to make it more stable.

Every major version has some stability issues, but that is the case in every product. Liferay has undergone a major overhaul in its DXP release, which has introduced some stability issues. From my experience, these issues will cease to exist after one or two minor releases.

As for now, Liferay DXP was just released, so there are many issues. Things don't work as mentioned in the documentation. It will get stable in the next releases. Liferay 6.2 was quite a stable version.
