Now that we are highly trained on it we have started on getting the most out of it and we plan to keep doing more of that in the future.
It's well suited for enterprise level websites with high complexity and a lot of traffic that need a robust solution with a lot of advanced features. It's not well suited for small/medium companies that want a quick/small website for their internet presence. You will need highly trained developers in order to take the most advantage of its features.
