Cons
GatherContent
  • Getting emails for every single change is really annoying.
  • It seems pretty easy, but I suggest you take time to train anyone who will be working on it.
  • API integrations could be better as it doesn't work 100% of the time.
  • Layouts created are static and you can not move the order.

  • It's unable to connect user accounts so that accounts are set and utilize a single sign-in.
