Overall Satisfaction with DNN Platform
We use DNN [Platform] in several in-house projects and sites, as well as implementing it for other clients for their website content management systems and managing their sites. We also build custom solutions on top the framework for other installs of DNN [Platform], for which there currently exists no module or solution. It's a middle ground solution for those who need customization and flexibility, even enough for enterprise level, but still want some granular controls to be able to make it as easy for non-technical people such as content developers to add content without messing up the design, seo or compliance.
- Granular controls for permission settings
- Unlimited portal farm for creating many sites and sharing assets
- Easy to use page management and controls
- Intuitive interface
- Have come a long way in the past five+ years
- Missing a tool to test for compliance (built in)
- All module developers should be held to a standard before being allowed to sell in the dnn store
- Confusion between dnn and evoq creates a lot of headaches for us
- DNN helps us win bids on projects through the improvements the community has done over the past few years; we were ready to scrap it all together but it has made great strides
- DNN's community has come back and is actively working to improve and expand the capabilities of the cms
- on a negative note, the confusion between evoq and dnn has caused us headaches
DNN [Platform] is as good as any CMS platform out there today. It's easier to use than WordPress for sophisticated sites and even (once set up properly) for non-technical people to maintain. For novice users without support, it's probably not the ideal solution against WordPress or wix etc. WP has more modules and extensions available. Drupal is a nightmare to use. Sitecore is expensive.
