Drupal Review
What do you like best about the product?
It's a versatile website-building tool but is also easy to use at the same time. I frequently use it in my current role to update, design, and develop web pages. It's a great platform to build a website on right now!
What do you dislike about the product?
Compared to other more visual development platforms, it's a little outdated when updating a page, saving it, and previewing the changes. Most website builders now are simple drag and drop, which I think Drupal could do better to adapt to make the overall experience for its users better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We migrated our existing website (www.usccb.org) from an old and outdated system to the Drupal platform. The difference could not be more drastic! What took days or weeks to update and develop now take minutes and hours. It's cut down on man-hours and maximised our productivity dramatically.

Drupal is not the future, at least for me
What do you like best about the product?
The only thing I like about using Drupal is how simple it is to do the basic things you need to do. Writing body text, making new pages, etc. is fairly simple for someone who may not understand web design.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how difficult it is to make things custom for my site. Unless you are familiar with coding, everything seems to take much longer than on other site developers I'm familiar with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to have multiple users log in and update their respective pages on our website. This solves the problem of allowing individuals to update and access their respective information instead of forcing all edits to go through one single person. And it's easy for them to comprehend how to make edits and doesn't take a ton of oversight.
Good for technical capabilities but poor for user experience
What do you like best about the product?
Drupal has lots of functionality and you can do pretty much anything you can dream of - once you have developers at hand.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UX and UI of Drupal is difficult to navigate and feels like software from a decade ago. There are way better options in the marketplace
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Drupal to manage a large website with membership capabilities. It has allowed us to segment different groups.
Drupal is the workhorse behind our most complex websites
What do you like best about the product?
Drupal gives you complete control over your website / application's data model. It includes core features for modeling and delivering content, but its contributed module ecosystem offers so much more. We've created complex intranets, eCommerce applications, B2B purchasing platforms, and more. Our sites use Drupal full-stack or as an API backend for custom JavaScript applications. That freedom / self-determination is what we value, and the tooling built up around Drupal over the years makes it much easier to maintain that it ever was before.
What do you dislike about the product?
The primary downside for a development-focused team like ours is that you do have to maintain what you build in perpetuity. There is no autopilot, no one else staying on top of your application for you. For simple sites, the overhead may not be worth it, but we typically have an ongoing relationship with our customers such that maintenance is performed alongside the continuous delivery of new features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through our Commerce module ecosystem, we are solving massive eCommerce use cases for our clients. These are typically more than "just" product catalogs and shopping carts... things other SaaS solutions have covered. We use Drupal's flexibility and scalability to power eCommerce that's multilingual, multi-store, multi-domain, and multi-currency all within a single application. We help merchants sell both B2C and B2B from a single site, making pricing and product availability differ on any aspect of the current user account.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should either invest the time needed to learn the tool yourself or at least hire a software architect who can tell you how best to use it. It's a power tool - it can do a lot when used correctly, but it's also easy to create more problems for yourself
A Well Organized CMS Platform
What do you like best about the product?
Drupal is an open-source platform that eliminates costly licensing fees. It is well maintained by a dedicated group of developers that not only keep the code up-to-date but monitor contributions for security risks and issues. All contributed modules are found in on common location. It gives the developer almost total freedom to display output in the manner required by the situation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Being a smaller community answers can sometimes be more difficult to find in common locations such as Stack. While it is still attempting to find a good solution, it lacks the page-building qualities of some of the other popular CMS solutions that content editors desire.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The combination of Drupal and hosting solutions like Pantheon provides a very cost-effective solution for smaller and non-profit organizations. Drupal can also be used as a headless solution to drive other applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider using a hosting company like Aquia or Pantheon. They are dedicated to and understand the product. This product is not for people without developer resources. If you do not have developer resources strongly consider engaging with an agency with Drupal experience.
Open source tool which helps you mark your online presence effectively.
What do you like best about the product?
This is one of the best open-source tools available in the market to effectively build your online presence by constructing your E-Commerce site and helps you in providing a far greater reach as compared to your everyday business. It provides a significant number of features to integrate with your site, such as different payment options, shipping options, etc. Also, being an open-source software, it helps developers to provide unconditional support, which helps in making the platform better.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface could have been a bit more vibrant and more user-friendly to make it more attractive and fun to use. Other than that, I could not find any significant drawback in this platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to mark my online presence with such a great platform. It helps me include so many features in my website to make it an overall great experience for our future potential customers. Also, adding so many unique and happening features to my website is icing on the cake.
Really user friendly and easy to operate
What do you like best about the product?
It's usability is very high and crips eertainly why Drupal is one of the most in-demand
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing as such, felt it's very good maybe a bit easier to use?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Website administration for my small businesses
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can take the assistance of experts for significant changes, but for minor things, you can find solutions online and very easily
Drupal Review - Higher Ed Website
What do you like best about the product?
Drupal has a lot of capabilities and is an intuitive to use content management system. As long as you have the web development resources needed to configure and code things the way you need them and implement the best modules for the functionality you desire, it is a good too. The workflows we implemented have been helpful so all edits can be reviewed and approved (or kicked back) before publishing content. On a large website with a lot of editors, the workflows are a great feature to control the site from getting out of control.
What do you dislike about the product?
With limited IT development resources at times, it is challenging to implement changes sometimes - more so than more 'out of the box' CMS I have used in the past that are configured to meet our needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a central team that I lead that manages the website and a distributed model of web editors across the organization that use it to make simple updates. Our Drupal site is the public face of the organization and helps us meeting our marketing goals.
Drupal is a super flexible and customizable CMS
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility to create structured content to fit the needs of a solution
What do you dislike about the product?
Theming and Layout building capabilities from the interface
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating Structured content
A recommended CMS platfrom
What do you like best about the product?
Few things I like about drupal the most are :
1. First things first, it's an open-source platform where I can manage things according to my needs and requirements.
2. Update they bring at regular intervals seems annoying at first impressions, but once you get used to the platform, these updates help you to manage things in a very effective way.
3. It has a built-in roles management system that allows the admin to authorize every user to a different level of role.

What do you dislike about the product?
Apart from all these likes, there are some segments on which I think drupal may improve on :
1. The formost thing, it doesn't have a good UI/UX interface. A new person will face a reck of issues when trying to command a new site.
2. If you don't know the exact configuration it may effect your website speed and there is no documentation regarding how to fix the effecency.

Problems am fixing while using drupal :
1. It was not easy for me to manage bulky content and high traffic sometimes. But now after using drupal it has been a handy task.
2. I am working for a long time on drupal now, so I am aware of the configuration a website takes to run at its maximum speed. So now all my websites which are hanging on drupal runs on a very effective speed.
