Overall Satisfaction with Progress Sitefinity

We use Progress Sitefinity for our primary information website. It is used by the Communications department to manage and maintain our website. It doesn't address any business problems. We don't like it. We are redesigning our site this year and we will no longer use Sitefinity.
  • Nothing.
  • The wysiwyg is terrible. We moved to a CMS to give our clients the ability to update their own content but still maintain our branding and styling. Our initial test group had no HTML or coding experience whatsoever, but the wysiwyg was unable to work properly. So we had to teach them some HTML code as a work around. Finally, we just said forget it and all changes still go through us. We gained nothing.
  • Upgrading has been a painful process. So in 5 years, we only upgraded twice.
  • We purchased and implemented the SiteSync add-on and have had nothing but issues with it since we started using it. Still having issues, and when we try to submit a support ticket, we got an error for that too.
I don't remember what else we looked at 5 years ago.
We do not feel there was any value added to our development, management, or maintenance of our site.
