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.

Collaboration has transformed daily work and supports seamless global voice communication
Microsoft Teams could be improved, especially regarding contact center solutions which have a growing need for omnichannel capabilities, integrating with external platforms such as social media and email for a unified experience. Minor improvements might include reintroducing features such as GPU options available in classic Microsoft Teams to address issues in modern Microsoft Teams related to video meetings and content sharing. Furthermore, essential information such as who started or ended recordings should be more accessible in the Microsoft Teams admin center. I rate it a nine because Microsoft Teams occasionally experiences glitches in the client, leading to missing chat history or other transient issues. The performance issues with the desktop client and the support service complexities contribute to my rating being less than perfect. I have not identified any other improvements needed for Microsoft Teams.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The open source nature of Drupal, being free to extend or alter it is massively important for us."
"The ability to create a complex website with a few developments is the most valuable feature, that's what got me started."
"The feature I find most valuable is that Drupal is a framework and not only a CMS, and I like that it's a good product to manage complex digital solutions."
"Drupal’s extensible nature allows me to easily integrate with third-party hosted systems and pull or push data to those systems."
"Use Drupal if expandability is a must or if you are building a large website with various kinds of functionality."
"We use a part of the solution called Acquia, and the personalization portion of this is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Drupal 8 has an architecture that will scale well and better than previous versions, especially given big pipe."
"Drupal is one of the most robust content management systems."
"Microsoft Teams is an easy-to-use solution."
"This is a stable solution, I have not faced any problems using the video conferencing."
"The solution is perfect and works pretty well. It gets your streaming and helps to get your calls. I like it a lot."
"This has improved productivity and communication significantly."
"It allows us to invite members to attend the meeting efficiently."
"The integration, being able to create groups to share documents that I think is the best, means I can set up a meeting and associate documents to that meeting and everybody can see it."
"The group chat is very good."
"We like that you can get a lot of users on one call without the call actually failing or losing quality. Hosts can connect, if I recall correctly, up to 90,000 people. If you need a massive company-wide meeting, you can do it."
 

Cons

"Since Drupal is not developed for any specific use cases, it has some learning curve and requires effort to learn."
"The GUI is still not as intuitive as WordPress."
"There were some stability issues, i.e., only with the new version, the main changes are not stable."
"As with most if not all web technologies, theres always an initial learning curve that can seem daunting."
"We had stability issues. I have a lot of 'Out of memory' issues."
"It needs better and more themes available for download, like you have in WordPress."
"Sometimes, you just have to read the code to understand how it works or how to use an API, which is not the best way to learn for everyone."
"Overall business friendliness of the product: Digital experience features like target segmentation and campaign management have a long way to go."
"Microsoft Teams is not fully stable, as there are service interruptions and issues with the client."
"The product is not fully integrated in Brazil."
"Adding and integrating more apps like SharePoint on Microsoft Teams is making the solution very slow."
"I think the solution would be improved by giving people the ability to call into meetings."
"The solution needs to be integrated with Microsoft Planner. I have also faced issues with stability in the first month."
"It's not as easy to augment your meetings as it is with competitors. For example, in Zoom, if I want to add attendees, I just grab the meeting link and post it to them. With Teams, how to do this is not as clear."
"I don't know how to upgrade some features for integration. It is difficult when it comes to integration with other platforms in some organizations."
"The solution's security features could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like to see better pricing."
"The product's pro accounts are cheap."
"The tool's price is high and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
"We have a license for the solution."
"The product is expensive."
"If you have content that requires more security and you want to use it in a more secure manner, with more protection, then it will come at a higher cost."
"The tool's price is part of MS Office 365 and I would rate its pricing five out of ten. The tool's licensing costs are monthly."
"We need to pay for Microsoft Teams' licenses on a yearly basis."
"Pricing is free to a threshold and then after that you have to license per user."

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…
