Bitrix Site Manager vs. Squiz Digital Experience Platform

Working with a large amount of web content where there is a need to focus on related content.

• Bitrix is well structured CMS.
• It provides rich integration with social media.
• Available modules are mature and well tested.

• Speed and efficiency
• Roles and content control
• Related content

• BITRIX does not provide multilingual features to the user-defined contents, although Bitrix does provide multilingual capabilities on system UI specific stuff. For example if our site is publishing company news then BITRIX does not provide an out of the box feature to implement this in different languages.

• User Interface was good but heavy, with Java powering the backbone I recall finding this somewhat troublesome at the time.

Mostly good support, but some times i got response late so overall good. Good options with Ajax load of contents with different URL in browser. Similar and better modules to show different contents. Good options for advertising contents.

I don't work with Squiz any more so it's difficult to say, that said, the site is still running on the same CMS so obviously it's still considered a great platform

I have developed some small web sites in Joomla but the problem is that these kinds of CMS platforms are very easily hackable.

Easier to work with

• Bitrix Site Manager provides an out of the box way to publish contents on a search engine friendly URL. In this way, site contents more easily crawlable by different search engines.

• Having a single powerful CMS platform that would integrate a number of organisations that had recently merged - Squiz was a big part of bringing our web architecture together gracefully.
• Increased employee efficiency
