Overall Satisfaction with Optimizely Content Management System
Optimizely Content Management System provides us an easy to use user management system, page publishing interface and tools for content creators to update our site on a regular basis. It connects to Optimizely's Commerce system to integrate ecommerce and static page content into one platform. As a developer, we have full flexibility to create every customization that we require for our business.
- Easy administration
- Content Page creation
- User Management
- A view of current features missing from current code implementation
- Alerts of critical errors
- Metrics on server performance issues that can be improved
- Ease of code deployments
- Simple content publishing
- User management
We use Optimizely Content Management System and Commerce together which seamlessly integrate.
Implementation took about 6-8 months switching from an in-house platform to full Optimizely Content Management System. It was difficult and time-consuming to upgrade from CMS 11 to 12, but with the CMS 12 .NET 6 version, this likely will only happen once.
- BigCommerce and Shopify
BigCommerce and Shopify do not give backend access to databases or the code of the website itself. One reason we chose Optimizely Content Management System to have complete control of front and backend code rather than doing all customizations through a javascript API.
