  • SDL is a very complex system. Creating custom components by external vendors turned out to be expensive.
  • The learning curve is very slow, so training takes a lot of time and cost.
  • The revamped corporate site looks clean, modern, and is mobile-friendly.

  • I can't answer this question from my use of Tridion. I have not had access to this data. Overall company seems pleased with investment.

  • Faster time to rollout country websites
  • Easier usage of existing translations. For example, quickly rolling out a Moroccan website re-using the French translations.
  • Great integration with the SDL language tools, providing a button in Tridion to send it for translation, and a webpage to see the status of translation

  • As an organization, we have been able to try out a lot of new marketing ideas as a result of moving to SDL Tridion for our CMS needs. Our previous system was extremely limited in its capabilities, and now we have a lot more freedom to do what we want on our website.
  • Our Web team has grown, both in number of employees and overall knowledge and experience, as a result of our increased agility and web capabilities. Our technical expertise has expanded and our organization supports efforts to grow our online channel.
  • We have been able to reduce the number of micro-sites that we manage, opting instead to move content over to our main website since we have increased our web capabilities.

  • I'm not the one dealing with the business part, but that we've been using Tridion for over 5 years to create public facing sites for our company is a good indication that it does it's job with what the business needs.

  • I had no part in this process since I was the developer that implemented or supported the sites. However I do know that only the very large companies with large bank accounts used SDL Tridion and could justify the use and see an ROI. I would never recommend SDL Tridion for a small to mid sized company.

  • Content is easily updated by employees, even employees with little experience in content management. Personally cut our publishing time in half.
  • Allows for more experienced HTML coders to push what the tool can do, outside of the specific modules.
  • Customers find the answers to their question more efficiently on their own.
  • Negative: May take some time for employees to adapt to any new CMS. Proper training courses will probably needed.

  • A positive here would be how Tridion is simple, fast, and easy to use for any individual looking to break into Content Management.
  • A negative about Tridion is the process of update publishment. There are a lot of things that can go wrong if this is not implement correctly.

  • Some control given to business to edit site content
  • Much faster ways to copy site content to other sites
  • Expensive to get your site up and running on Tridion
