User Testimonials
	Jahia Digital Experience Platform
Likelihood to Recommend	Jahia Solutions In my experience, Jahia Digital Experience Platform as a CMS platform is excellent when you have a large amount of content that needs to be customized. It is also good for when you have templated content that has minor variations. I would say it is less appropriate when the content has numerous mathematical computations, or a large amount of business logic that comes into play with data processing.

Pros	Jahia Solutions Content management: It is very easy to update text, images, files and videos even for a non technical user. Multi-site Management: It has a robust multi-site management capability, It helps in maintaining multiple websites with consistent branding. Digital asset management: It is easier to store organize and retrieve images, videos and documents. It has a great built-in analytics and reporting feature. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Jahia Solutions It lacks the ability to manage multiple versions of a page or content in general. The back office interface sometimes encounters bugs or display problems. It's difficult to keep pre-production sites up to date in terms of content compared to production, because the time required to import/export sites is very long once the site is rich in content.
