Overall Satisfaction with Drupal

We used Drupal for our website design through our web developer. We were able to customize the look and feel of the website and manage the content quickly. By using Drupal for website design, we were able to make changes in real time as opposed to needing to create a trouble ticket and waiting for support to update website content.

Pros

  • Website Design
  • Drag and Drop Editor Functionality
  • Great website templates

Cons

  • Updates are not streamlined
  • Not many free themes
  • Customer support is not the best
  • Real time content updates
  • Mobile friendly giving options
  • Open source platform
On a daily basis, the overall usability of Drupal is good, however, there are some improvements that could be made to make it more user friendly.
Drupal has some advantages and disadvantages when stacked up against WordPress,, including that WordPress is easier to user for beginners and requires less training to get started. I noticed that while using Drupal, more help and assistance was needed from developers to make changes, whereas WordPress allowed for our staff to make easy and quick changes.

Would you buy Drupal again?

No

There were some aspects, such as the drag and drop capabilities that we liked about Drupal, however, whenever customer support was needed, we had difficulty making a connection. Tasks that required additional support often led to us needing to create a trouble ticket with customer service. I was able to find some videos online that provided assistance, but for more challenging needs, it was a challenge getting the answers we needed.
