Overall Satisfaction with Drupal

  • To develop content oriented and transaction oriented sites
  • Non technical users can easily build sites using Drupal
  • Drupal 8 and above have responsive design included.
  • Easy access to inline edit mode that directly allows the users to edit components then and there without having them to move to a whole new page as in case of full page edit mode.

Pros

  • Content revisions
  • Content translations
  • Database and server logs
  • Error backtrace
  • SEO

Cons

  • Can be overwhelming to new users
  • Integration with APIs requires full Drupal technical knowledge
  • Default package size is large
  • Integrated Drupal in the backend where the front end was developed using React. This enhanced site performances by more than 25%
  • Third party integrations like SSO are just a plugin away. Human coding time decreased by 90%.
  • Translations management are generated and consumed using files. So, 0 manual work on updating each and every content
Drupal requires less to no coding abilities to spin up sites.
Even if someone is preparing to develop sites that require technical know how then Drupal provides role based systems to seperate developers from content writers.
Drupal 8 and 9 now have a vast array of plugins. Now almost everything that ca developer can think of creating can just search the community and install the plugin in their sites to use its functionality.

Did Drupal live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Drupal go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Drupal again?

Yes

If you have a team that comprises a less number of developers and large number of content writers than Drupal is a must.
It is written using PHP which almost all developers habe experience with or can get easily accustomed to.
Multilingual functionalities of Drupal are exceptional.
Last but not the least, if you are looking for content management systems then look no where Drupal is your answer.
