Overall Satisfaction with Drupal
Drupal is one of the platforms we recommend for small to mid-sized engagements. We traditionally target the Drupal platform based on customer budget to high level scope being requested. We have used Drupal for any WCMS and have connected into ecommerce platforms.
- WCMS - simple and straightforward content management
- Modular - the fact that I can model Drupal into any shape I want is a huge selling point for us
- Community - the Drupal community is also a very strong selling point
- Open Source - This can be a strength and weakness based on the customer involved
- Time to Market - it is not as short as it is sold on some site. It takes time and knowledge to properly setup Drupal and tune it to get the optimal performance.
- In the Engagements we have used it in, the ROI was positive. Approximately 2 year window on recovering the investment.
- Magento, Insite Software and Adobe Experience Manager
It came down to budget which is why we normally target Drupal for small to mid-sized engagements.
