A good product that helps me to manage complex digital solutions
My advice to others would be that Drupal is not only a CMS, you need to learn the Drupal fundamentals before to start the project. Drupal is a handy tool whenever you work on a digital infrastructure broad project and not only a simple website. So if you have a big project, you can use Drupal. But if you have a small website, like a blog or simple website, my advice would be not to use Drupal, because Drupal is too complex and the cost to maintain the platform can be too high, related to the value of your website, for example. If you have a website with a big product catalog, for example, in many languages and in many countries in the world, then Drupal is good. But if you have a simple website, like a portfolio or five page-website, you can use many other technologies that'd be simple to maintain and implement. On a scale from one to 10, I will rate Drupal an eight. In the next release, I would like to see basic page buttons and better integration with the analytics platform. A drag and drop function to create simple pages will also be handy. For example, if a customer wants to create a landing page, it should be easy for him or her to do so. I would also like to see better translation management.

Group events allow everyone to see live updates
The ability to have a box storage feature supporting each community page is the most valuable feature, i.e., similar to what we already know. The allowance to get others to contribute to documents and make comments as all are being tracked is another important feature Group events are being…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Previously, I have used a variety of solutions, including the custom ones, and I switched solutions because Drupal provides all the features that I need."
"At Appnovation Technologies we leverage Drupal’s out of the box features and functionality in order to speed up development and delivery time for our clients."
"It has a huge community and support from all over the web."
"It is a very powerful tool for the developer's hands and also, it's very easy for the content editors to use."
"But it is worth it if you require an enterprise level web platform with great scalability, support, and security."
"Because of Drupal, we now have the ability to provide our customers with multilingual, multi-regional content to an extent that would not have been possible otherwise."
"The best things about Drupal are its extensibility and plug-ability."
"Drupal’s extensible nature allows me to easily integrate with third-party hosted systems and pull or push data to those systems."
"MangoApps is my go-to recommendation for sole proprietorships, startups, SMBs, or even established companies who need a one-stop-shop for communication, filesharing, knowledge base management, and project management."
"The ability to have a box storage feature supporting each community page is the most valuable feature, i.e., similar to what we already know."
 

Cons

"Drupal community and forums are not as easy and straightforward as Wordpress, the number of areas covered by existing plugins should be larger, and it is resource hungry compared to Wordpress."
"The GUI is still not as intuitive as WordPress."
"The version upgrading process is very painful. Moving to a new Drupal version involves much more than building and configuring the new site."
"It has to improve the speed of the admin section. Sometimes you will get stuck while updating the configurations, especially because it uses AJAX in the interface."
"Since Drupal is not developed for any specific use cases, it has some learning curve and requires effort to learn."
"There were some stability issues, i.e., only with the new version, the main changes are not stable."
"We had stability issues. I have a lot of 'Out of memory' issues."
"Drupal 8 can be somewhat complex to set up because of the supporting technologies that should be installed, such as Composer, Drush, and Drupal Console."
"It doesn't have the most professional sounding name... but then again, I don't know that the name of a solution should be a factor in your decision making."
"The ability to work on the documents themselves, without having to download and re-upload is needed."

Jive vs Sharepoint vs Drupal Commons
At Mediacurrent we often get requests to compare Drupal to other platforms used for intranet sites and social business platforms (like https://dev.twitter.com/ for example). This is often referred to as “Social Business Software”, which has grown in popularity in recent years. I decided to do a…
