Web Content Management
Comparison of Web Content Management features of HCL Digital Experience and Rambox
HCL DX does really well at managing and maintaining the site. It allows the business to basically maintain the site while IT spent time developing new and enhanced functions. The main issue I currently have with HCL DX is not directly with the product but it does play a role. It is difficult finding skilled resources to support HCL DX in my experience.

It seems almost limitless of the apps that you can add. If there is a website for something, you should be able to add it. You are even able to add custom apps that are not in their list of pre-made apps you can add. So I am able to add all the apps and custom apps that I need for doing my jobs. I don't think Rambox would be very useful for people that don't log into web apps often using a web browser. I use this app mostly because I have so many web logins and it makes it easy to manage in one app, instead of logging into several websites.

With Version 8.5, IBM Web Content Manager introduced in place editing capabilities which allow authors to make content edits on sections of the page instead of going to the content itself. This feature allows authors to make changes in context of the page and preview changes within the actual look and feel of a live page.
Projects provide a collaborative atmosphere for the author community so that authors can interact and work as a team to manage inter-dependent content changes under one project and publish all changes at once, instead of working separately on individual content changes. This brings awareness across authors in an organization and easy knowledge share.
IBM Digital Data Connector is a cool feature that allows [users] to integrate external content sources onto the portal using IBM Web Content Manager presentation components. This allows UI/UX designers to present integrated external data in any manner they want, manage UI changes with an underlying approval process and leverage syndication to push changes live immediately.
IBM Web Content Manager offers a targeted content feature that allows business users to deliver personalized content to customers based on customer demographic information, browsing history and other transaction related information. Any rules created follow the publishing process thereby making it just a configurable item resulting in less turn around to turn on the feature on a website.
IBM Web Content Manager offers 'multi lingual solution' out of the box which allows content creation for almost all popular languages.
Syndication feature has improved a lot and it now provides a detailed views comprising of 'failed items', 'items that have syndicated successfully, 'items in queue'. Failed items view provides detailed and clear cut information of what resulted in failure helping IT to troubleshoot problems easily.

IBM Web Content Manager should provide some easily usable connectors through a GUI to connect to bring content from custom data sources including connecting to Salesforce and custom databases.

Sometimes the loading can be slow if you have many apps enabled and starting at first run
Icon's help me find what I need. It would be nice to have an easier way to upload from like a gallery that Rambox hosts rather than to have to find your own off the web.
I wish you could make folders or something within the workspaces for more organization

IBM products always moves forward to adapt to new requirements and technologies. I have used versions 6, 6.1, 7 and 8 of IBM WCM, and I know IBM is ready to revamp the tool based on emerging needs, and still provide the capabilities to migrate your old system to the newer versions.
Magento and Prestashop are E-commerce CMS platforms. They are used in a different scale of application than WCM.
Concerning Joomla, it's a useful CMS forsmaller website. Once again this is an other scale of application than WCM Liveray can compete WCM 7 concerning the : ¤ specific development ¤ security ¤ responsive
There was one other one that I tried and I honestly don't remember the name. Rambox beat it by far... One reason, I was able to get a lifetime license (Which they have deals for that I think once a year, so keep your eyes open for it), and the other app I tried was a subscription. I really did not want another subscription. Another reason, the other app was not able to do as much as far as custom apps and the loading was much faster with Rambox.

Rambox has saved me time on not having to dig up website URL's and login credentials for quick access to sites when I need to use them. saves time and money in the long run.
Being able to install on a different device and have everything sync also saves me time and money.
Rambox allows you to organize all your apps in different work spaces so I can have several but go the workspace of apps that I need for special use cases. Saves me time to not have to remember which web apps I need for a certain job. Saves me a bunch of time and money.
