Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Sitefinity is being used as our main website domain. We have over 50 other websites that prominently use WordPress. This site contains all the information for our nonprofit organization, IFMA. It's also used as a store and place for our users to become members and obtain resources. The website is used mostly by the marketing and web service team. These departments maintain and update information such as new events, posts, and services on a daily basis.

Pros and Cons

Able to organize our content
Easy to maintain and edit information

Have the ability to have multiple users working on the same page at the same time

Return on Investment

Old developers did not code the previous versions of Sitefinity correctly and had issues updating Sitefinity due to compatibility issues with code.

Alternatives Considered

WordPress

WordPress has a huge community when it comes to custom plugins available. The ability to use functions.php files to add scripts makes it very easy to use and handle. Only issue is that WordPress lacks the ability to scale for a bigger site.

Other Software Used

Umbraco CMS, WordPress

Likelihood to Recommend

Progress Sitefinity is a very good tool to use a more large company. It as simple as WordPress but with more flexibility and customizable. It is simple for non-developers to get their hand and use. It also has good administration abilities to give users certain roles and permissions.
