Pros

“Calendar and scheduling features are useful for team coordination, especially when integrated with other Microsoft tools, making it easier to manage shared events and deadlines in one place.”

Swarnima G.

Software Engineer

“As an IT Professional managing infrastructure and productivity tools for a mid-sized company, SharePoint (as part of Microsoft 365) has become our central hub for document storage, team collaboration, intranets, and business processes.”
JB

Joe B.

IT Systems Specialist

“MS SharePoint is a good tool to help organizations improve collaboration, streamline document management, help employee engagement and track projects. Although there is a learning curve to it and a complex interface, it provides a lot of customization to your business needs. If you already have other MS products, this is worth the money.”

Pros

“OctoberCMS is light enough that it appeals to my sense of speed and aversion to heavyweight waste, and seems to transcend many of the trendy come-and-go fads in technology. ”
GH

Greg H.

President and CEO

“In cases when a client doesn't have the budget to build some deeply customised backend, but needs a simple and understandable, extensible interface for the admin or frontend - OctoberCMS has practically no competitors in this segment.”
IC

Ihor C.

CTO

“The e-commerce part is a bit complicated and maybe some sort of a package would help a lot here.”
SA

Simeon A.

UX Designer

Cons

“The learning curve can be pretty steep, especially when it comes to managing permissions and site structure. If it isn't set up properly from the start, the search function can get cluttered quickly, making it tricky to find specific files.”
CD

Callum D.

Social Media Marketer

“We also have frequent issues with users who upload a new profile photo to the directory taking several days to sync and eventually show up throughout Sharepoint.”
CW

Clyde W.

System Administrator

“There is a limited amount of page layouts which means it is not possible to make optimal use of the screen real estate and users need to scroll.”

Adam M.

Senior Technical Writer

Cons

“At the time, it was quite a young CMS and lacked a few features others support, for example versioning”
CD

Christopher D.

Web developer

“Web skills are not my strong suit. ”
GH

President and CEO

“Outdated plugins in the marketplace.”
