Overall Satisfaction with Progress Sitefinity

We use Sitefinity for CMS on our website. It allows me to update content quickly without being a "master html coder" myself.
  • Version control is easy. I can revert back to an earlier version if needed very simply.
  • I can preview how a page will look before publishing and have confidence in how it will appear for real when I'm ready.
  • Publishing forms and files on our website is extremely easy.
My website needs to use .NET so Sitefinity is compatible with that requirement. For sites that don't require .NET other options may also work well. At the time we were choosing a CMS, the options for .NET were more limited and we chose this one. Since my current needs are well met by Sitefinity, I have not been searching for another option in recent years.
