• Easy-to-use content authoring and design tools for business users.
• Segmentation based on implicit (behavioral) or explicit (known user or characteristics) criteria or a combination of the two.
• Flexible rules engine for creation of customer segments and recommendations, enabling delivery of targeted content and campaigns.

• 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.

• Creating new content is not so easy
• Publishing is not trivial
• In my opinion documentation is weak
• I think there are cheaper solutions then WCS

A valuable tool for enabling marketers and business users to easily create and manage contextually relevant social and interactive online experiences across multiple channels on a global scale to drive sales and loyalty. It also allows multi-site management (in fact Sites) using the assets and template developed, without having to re-implement again for each individual site.

The WebCenter Sites Support team is extremely good and very responsive to client needs. They are quick to resolve Level 1 issues and when escalated to Level 2, the team makes every effort to keep the client informed.

There are lot of WCM products available in the market, some free and some licensed. But for a organisation using more Oracle products and on Java technology, WCS is the best in class, for intranet and internet needs. It has everything which is required for a web application. Also it can be well integrated with other platforms with Oracle Document Cloud/Oracle Content/Oracle Identity Manager and a lot more. Its a well integrated product. It can also be integrated with social media using a community plugin. It also comes with its own search and analytics tools. The templates are pure JSP and can be easily coded by Java developers using the development guide. Its based on Java, so writing custom applications and integrating is easy
