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

"Drupal is one of the most robust content management systems."
"You can build websites on it very quickly."
"Drupal 8 has an architecture that will scale well and better than previous versions, especially given big pipe."
"The ability to create a complex website with a few developments is the most valuable feature, that's what got me started."
"It is good for big projects."
"We have built a production ready, heavy content website using this product within two to three months."
"But it is worth it if you require an enterprise level web platform with great scalability, support, and security."
"The open source nature of Drupal, being free to extend or alter it is massively important for us."
"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 8 is only 1.5 years old. It has stability issues, but not major ones."
"There were some stability issues, i.e., only with the new version, the main changes are not stable."
"The version upgrading process is very painful. Moving to a new Drupal version involves much more than building and configuring the new site."
"We had stability issues. I have a lot of 'Out of memory' issues."
"Unfortunately, with Drupal, there is a number of learning paradigms that you have to discover, which can make it difficult to understand as a newcomer."
"If you have a high traffic site and speed is important, to optimize Drupal you will probably need an expert."
"The user experience in designing layouts should be much easier or much more helpful."
"I think the support needs to improve, as well as the integration with tracking and analytics systems."
"The ability to work on the documents themselves, without having to download and re-upload is needed."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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…
