Likelihood to Recommend OnSemble is solving a lot of problems that our organization had prior to its implementation:
We can track communication readership. We can engage with our fellow teammates through chats and recognition. We have a central location for all job-related links. We are just now delving into adding departmental pages so folks can communicate within their teams. I'm not sure of a scenario where OnSemble wouldn't be appropriate - if you have a company that needs to centralize communication, documentation, and share ideas, it's an excellent choice.
Read full review OU Campus is the best CMS product I've seen, especially when you have a large organization with less staff and resources. Also, its power, if one team likes marketing, handles all pages and that saves a lot of time and effort. I strongly like the components/snippets. Tags all dynamic modules.

With a small staff, we rely on others to update their content. OU Campus makes it easy. Site-wide find and replace. I use the site-wide find and replace feature for all sorts of things - links, enrollment numbers, department names. It's really helpful. Customer service. The staff at OU Campus answers questions quickly and is always willing to discuss the most effective ways to take on new projects. Read full review Cons Permissions - granting permissions at different levels for users is tedious - would like to see permissions simplified. Read full review Formatting. The page can sometimes look very differently when published than what it looks like while editing. Some improvements have been made in this area with version 10 however. Find and replace. The command+F needs to find text on the page while editing, not present an actual find and replace dialog box. At least give me the option to simply "find" the text I'm looking for. The dialog box just gets in the way most of the time. There is not a way to "unpublish" items. At least not a way that I can think of. I would like the ability to pull a page offline without deleting it. Seems like it should be done simpler. Daniel McGarry Educational Technology Coordinator for College of Nursing

Read full review Usability As a user: it's pretty intuitive and the only thing holding a user back from getting everything out of it is a lack of curiosity. As an admin: it's not super intuitive. The training and the setup process are crucial to be able to use and maintain the portal, and we still sometimes have questions.

The core web development environment was cumbersome to set up. Non-tech people also had trouble understanding how the web works and how web pages are created/maintained. OU Campus Content Management System solved all problems for us.
