Sitefinity has its advantages and disadvantages. We view it as a useful tool in our toolbox and are always happy to develop a new Sitefinity site when its features align with the needs of our clients. From a content management standpoint, it is easier to work in than some and a little challenging for new users but no overall complaints.

Likelihood to Recommend

Sitefinity is well suited for complex websites that [find] value from having shared content that can be updated centrally for sitewide deployment. It also is relatively user-friendly to operate in once you are familiar with the interface and allows a host of custom modules to be built and deployed. However, it is not always appropriate for clients on a budget who don't require the technical benefits to Sitefinity.
