Overall Satisfaction with Magnolia
Magnolia is used by the whole organization to manage content for various websites, however my department is a key team for support. It is used for unstructured content, structured content, and digital assets. Custom solutions and content apps are developed in house. The main websites for VSP are all housed within Magnolia, which adds up to many pages.
- Magnolia is very stable.
- Magnolia is easy to learn.
- Structured content apps save time.
- The digital asset manager needs to do much more; it is just basic.
- The new version of Magnolia has an interface which is harder to use than the previous version.
- Too many solutions must be customized instead of coming out of the box.
- Huge variety of sites are maintained
- New content is published quickly
- Business employees can learn the system successfully
- Sites are stable and stay up
I like the content apps, if they are set up well with a good plan. Content can be published quickly and troubleshooted when needed. The category app is easy to use.
It does not nearly do what AEM does, but the again, it is much easier to use.
