• The depth of the product and available options can be a bit overwhelming when getting started

This is my fourth year using WYSIWYG Web Builder and as many new releases. Each new release brings a staggering number of new features and enhancements. But the updates, fixes and new features are not limited to a once a year update. The product is updated with interium releases every few months.

The one reason for a 9 instead of a 10 is not a ding to the product itself. When first starting out the available options and tools are a bit overwhelming. You might be able to achieve the same visual result in multiple ways. As a new user you will need to learn which options work best for you. The online tutorials are good and there are a number of very good videos available on YouTube. The support from the forum is great. New users are treated with respect and provided support and guidance. (That is certainly not the case in many support forums) After fours years and dozens of websites I am still learning new features and tools for enhancing my customer's sites.

The developer actively replies to post on the support forum. It is typical to get a reply in a few hours. The support for this product exceeds any other product I have used in the past 25 years. In addition to rapid replies from the developer the support community is very active on the forum along with several forum members providing excellent training videos.

implementaion is simple. install the product and setup your hosting ftp settings.

We have choosen OpenText WEM against other vendors because : 1. Helped client reinforce brand image
through unique design language and templatization of collaterals, consistent
messaging, and regular competitor benchmarking. 2. Enables lead generation through
high-quality gated collateral, product videos, etc. 3. Senior management and sales lead meet
client regularly for project review meetings and feedback on engagement

I still use Xara for graphic design and image editing. But the web development in WYSIWYG Web Builder is far superior. Compared to online editors like Weebly, Wix, etc WYSIWYG Web Builder allows you to experiment with different options saved to different files. With the online builders you can't easily have 5 options to show a client. And you don't have backup copies in case the work you did, didn't work out.

• Improved online engagement.
• Speeds up our digital transformation my the day.
• Modernizing our web content management system.
