It is advisable to create custom designs that call for specific programs and content without giving direct access to those programs. We still have to meet the proposed use case where it should not be used.

I cannot provide any specific scenarios where SiteExecutive would be better suited or less appropriate. I have experience working with two other Content Management Systems, and I gave SiteExecutive a rating of 9 out of 10. In comparison to other interfaces, SiteExecutive is not quite there yet with ideal user interface; drag-and-drop features are not available; it is not mobile friendly just yet.
