User Testimonials
	Jekyll	NTB Live Center
Likelihood to Recommend	Open Source Jekyll is great for people who aren't intimidated by editing HTML, CSS, and Markdown files, people who are on a shoestring budget, and people who want a blazing fast website. Jekyll may not be the best option for people who aren't interested in editing their websites in a text file and would rather have a WordPress-esque back-end from the beginning. Incentivized Nathan Arthur Programmer Read full review	NTB AS As we have to show the highlights of our blogs in the main page of our website. We choose Live Center as here it is very easy to embed those blogs in the home page. Also, this embeding thing was done by content creator so we don't have to reach to developer always.

Pros	Open Source Content stored in Git with the website code Free to use Easy to deploy to cheap/free hosting solutions Produces super fast static websites Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	NTB AS No answers on this topic
Cons	Open Source Complicated for non-technical users Can be difficult to enter in new content Implementing dynamic components can be challenging Incentivized Kyle Taylor Senior Drupal Developer Read full review	NTB AS The flow of comments could be improved. The ability to turn off auto updates on a live blog doesn't exist. Could add more reporting functionality. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Open Source Jekyll is integrated into GitHub Pages, which made it an easy choice. Using Jekyll was also easier as there's not really a server or a database to configure and you can just get things started from day one. Running and verifying content changes locally for developers is super efficient as Jekyll runs locally, too. Incentivized Eric Mann Tekton Read full review	NTB AS No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Open Source Jekyll has kept our costs low, very low, on all the projects I've used on it. Think $10 a year low. Incentivized Nathan Arthur Programmer Read full review	NTB AS No answers on this topic
