Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We work with a 3rd party vendor to implement Sitefinity CMS to host our organization website. The 3rd party does the development for us and we manage the content on a day to day basis.

Pros and Cons

Sitefinity is a stable environment. We don't have many issues with crashes etc.
Sitefinity has a good organizational structure.
On the front end, Sitefinity is fairly easy to use.

We aren't able to do customization on our own. The 3rd party vendor controls the back end code. This limits our ability to always do what we would like to do without calling in a 3rd party.
It might be helpful to have a "plugin" system, kind of like WordPress, that allows users easier access to a wider variety of functions without programming knowledge.

Alternatives Considered

WordPress

Sitefinity is more difficult to customize with the staff we have.

If you want to hire a third party to set things up and you want to just manage content or if you have people on staff who can do the heavy lifting with the programming languages involved, Sitefinity could be a good match. If you want to be able to do more than just manage content, but don't have the programmers to handle the languages involved (Microsoft), Sitefinity might be limiting.

Sitefinity is a good product
