Overall Satisfaction with Drupal

building out new stories on a corporate newsroom, creating new pages for audiences to learn more about the business, creating a press center for media to download relevant assets, publishing press releases, publishing external facing business updates, hosting an about us page, etc.

Pros

  • developer tools
  • secure CMS
  • simple web design

Cons

  • needs a more intuitive user interface
  • simpler taxonomy and nomenclature for broader audiences
  • more dynamic design options
There's a learning curve if you don't have a background in web development or web coding.
Vastly different interfaces, but Drupal had superior security features when we established our site.

Do you think Drupal delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Drupal's feature set?

No

Did Drupal live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Drupal go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Drupal again?

No

I'd only recommend Drupal for developers or coders. I wouldn't recommend it for editorial purposes.
