Feature packed, intuitive to use
Overall Satisfaction with Concrete CMS
We use Concrete CMS for our website and for our clients. We host 120+ websites that we have developed over the past 7 years. Projects range from simple brochure sites to eCommerce, through to highly bespoke sites, where we have created lots of new functionality.
Pros
- Easy and intuitive for site editors
- Standards compliant code
- Up to date and secure
- Limitless, easy to extend
- Lots of functionality out of the box
Cons
- Documentation could be more extensive
- Need to grow community to encourage developers to sell more in the marketplace
- Build brand awareness
- Easy to sell due to how intuitive the Concrete CMS is
- Being a specialist in a fairly unknown platform can lead to the easy acquisition of clients who already use Concrete CMS
- Low search volume for Concrete5 means we still take on more general web design work
WordPress is a basic blogging tool that has been hacked into a CMS, it is not as intuitive or comprehensive as Concrete CMS. It requires more updates and it can be harder to locate settings that the user needs. However, as a business, the WordPress team has been very successful in grabbing huge brand awareness and market share, which is where Concrete CMS needs to compete in the future.
