Overall Satisfaction with Magnolia

We're currently using magnolia to deliver content to our public-facing website. The content displayed to our users can now be controlled by Marketing. Before using Magnolia, any content changes would have to be done by a developer and promoted through to production which is both costly and slow. Marketing can now instantly make changes with a click of a button which for us is very powerful as we ramp up marketing spend.
  • Magnolia is very flexible and straightforward to implement when you follow their documentation and tutorials.
  • Fantastic support from Magnolia, very fast response times, video calls, and guidance provided whenever we've asked. Thank you.
  • Easy from none technical people to use.
  • Easily scalable along with Magnolia having its own environments for development and testing.
  • To get deep into magnolia customisation you'd need to know Java to implement and add custom features.
  • Reduced development time.
  • Faster deployment of content changes.
  • Better control of content to match marketing campaigns.
There is always room for improvement.
No problems in this area, magnolia is very fast.
