Likelihood to Recommend Craft is really well suited for any size design team - I have used it within a team of 3, and within a team of 30. It helps with collaboration within the team, and between external teams through 'sync' with Invision. It increases efficiency of using Sketch with things like 'data', 'duplicate', and 'stock'. These tools not only make designing faster, but also more realistic, allowing us to 'test' our designs sooner.
Read full review Salesforce CMS is well suited for anything sales. If you need information on an account, want to touch your old accounts, need to get a better idea of ownership by vertical, or want to estimate revenue from your pipeline, it is very A-OK. We use Salesforce to open, close, and study prospects to later convert them into closed deals. There is a section for notes to detail about each and every account. You can add contacts in, complete with their title, email, cell phones, and other additional info, and since our program is sync'ed up with Outreach.io you can make an immediate call from the Salesforce page. It's a must if you are growing your company and want to stay organized within multiple departments.
Read full review Pros Craft is built to digital products developers, so its workflow is great. It has a very nice interface and is a beautiful tool. Read full review Easy to use, just like Salesforce's other products. Many users can sit down and figure it out in no time, and with a little training become power users. Fast and secure - Salesforce is a leader in the cloud world so you get consistently fast results and security that is top notch in the industry. Accessible from anywhere - if you use cloud CMS already this is a no-brainer, but for those that do in-house CMS still, this is a major difference. Mobile access from anywhere on the planet without a VPN is something you just can't do without the cloud. Read full review Cons tools hard to understand user interface is a bit tricky for some who is not familiar with these apps detailed control page with more formatting options Read full review Platform is so robust it can be overwhelming when starting a report from scratch Key words in the Search column have to be fairly specific Lot's of training is Salesforce Trailhead that it can be a bit daunting to decide what to learn about that is applicable to our organization Read full review Usability It's super awkward if you aren't familiar with it. I have several years' experience in both my organization's salesforce as well as others and there are still things that trip me up. I think Salesforce can get to a point where it's TOO bloated with all this information, all these integrations, what-have-you, that it can be difficult to find what you need in a timely manner or it creates a hiccup in workflows that you then have to work around. On the other hand, once these issues are identified, there is the possibility to manipulate Salesforce into creating automated workarounds. So, at least it allows for that. I think it's an issue of having so many options for bolt-ons that you start to lose perspective and functionality. You tend to lose focus on usability for users.

Read full review I'm not sure - we have hired a person/team that are Salesforce Admin so when I have a question or need support I go in-house. But, I know Salesforce has incredible L+D and trainings available for free to help users develop in their skillsets.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Craft was originally developed in response to
ExpressionEngine 's shortcomings. While
ExpressionEngine has caught up in some regards, it still looks and feels a bit unpolished by comparison. Additionally,
ExpressionEngine 's vendor has never gotten UI right - not on their website, nor in their CMS. Craft remains easier to use, more polished and provides a wider feature set in its base install (without needing plugins). As for
WordPress - while I recognize its massive popularity, I find its reliance on themes, third-party plugins, along with security shortcomings, make it a poor fit for the larger custom projects we build. On the other hand, if you want to throw up a
passable website in a day, you can't beat
WordPress .

Read full review Return on Investment Easy to keep track of notes in a more structured way than a long single document that gets added to over time. Great for sharing with collaborators.
