Divi vs. Modern Campus CMS

Divi is great if you build multiple websites for clients; however, I'm not sure it is cost-effective if you only make a single site.

OU Campus is the best CMS product I've seen, especially when you have a large organization with less staff and resources. Also, its power, if one team likes marketing, handles all pages and that saves a lot of time and effort. I strongly like the components/snippets. Tags all dynamic modules.

• It has a very easy-to-use and extremely complete block editor.
• It offers many templates that you can use as a base for your website.
• Customer service has been fast and effective whenever I have needed it.
• Tiene un editor de bloques muy sencillo de usar y extremadamente completo.
• Ofrece muchas plantillas que puedes utilizar como base para tu web.
• La atención al cliente ha sido rápida y efectiva siempre que la he necesitado

• The JustEdit feature makes updating content a breeze. With a small staff, we rely on others to update their content. OU Campus makes it easy.
• Site-wide find and replace. I use the site-wide find and replace feature for all sorts of things - links, enrollment numbers, department names. It's really helpful.
• Customer service. The staff at OU Campus answers questions quickly and is always willing to discuss the most effective ways to take on new projects.

• The load time of the builder could be faster. On some websites it takes a long time to load, and may crash the page. (I believe they've said they're working on this stability issue.)
• Warnings on updates if they're difficult for some sites to run. I have one website that has crashed more than once from Divi's theme updates. I always back it up before the update so I restore the site, but this is still a bit of an inconvenience.
• Integrated (or more clearly marked) tutorials within the builder. I migrate site maintenance and ownership to clients after the site is complete and some could use refreshers within the builder on what happens where i.e. the difference between a section, row, module.

• Formatting. The page can sometimes look very differently when published than what it looks like while editing. Some improvements have been made in this area with version 10 however.
• Find and replace. The command+F needs to find text on the page while editing, not present an actual find and replace dialog box. At least give me the option to simply "find" the text I'm looking for. The dialog box just gets in the way most of the time.
• There is not a way to "unpublish" items. At least not a way that I can think of. I would like the ability to pull a page offline without deleting it. Seems like it should be done simpler.

We renewed our contract with OmniUpdate-OU Campus for reasons previously mentioned and also the well-provided tech support received from the company.

Divi is overall a great tool to use - I think I would need to spend a little more time to dig into the tool to provide more long term feedback.

Once you've been training how to use it, it's really easy to use it on a daily basis

The support at OmniUpdate is one of the reasons we continued with the company when time for renewal of contract.

The support team at OmniUpdate is available to assisting campuses with implementation

I find Elementor very clunky and find Divi much more intuitive.

Also we purchased a lifetime license for Divi and can use it on unlimited websites, while Elementor there is a yearly subscription per site

Before using OU Campus Content Management System we were using Adobe's DreamWeaver suite for creating and maintaining web pages. The core web development environment was cumbersome to set up. Non-tech people also had trouble understanding how the web works and how web pages are created/maintained. OU Campus Content Management System solved all problems for us.

• Higher conversion rate
• Theres no needed more tools
• Ive got rid of a CTA tool since with Divi i can make them. Is not that easy, but is functional

• The positive impact of OU Campus is that is has increased employee efficiency and improved customer service among staff and students.
