  • Creating new posts, pages.
  • Setting up forms, collecting data.
  • Control access to users.
  • Advanced data collection through forms.
  • Forums - no easy plugins.
  • Plug-in integration, updates.
Yes - Works good for me. I would have liked it to be a little simpler given that we are looking at it on a small screen. But can't complain as they allow all features to be used.
It's easy to use for basic functions such as posts, pages, forms, media, etc.
