Drupal is your go to CMS for complex portals and websites
What do you like best about the product?
Drupal is more than just a CMS. It is a true content management platform (emphasis on platform). To me, the difference with Drupal is its ability to manipulate the content and have dynamic content which is different than just a CMS. That is, It is more than just a system to render the data onto a webpage with stylesheets, but a complete platform that allows a developer to manupulate data dynamically and render it dynamically on a webpage. Many people will compare Wordpress with Drupal. To be fair, they both do 80% of the same thing, but the 20% is what makes the difference. Drupal allows a developer to control data input and output at a level that Wordpress does not. It is a lot like the difference between iOS (Apple Phone) and Android phone. They both allow to make calls but how that call is completed is different to a developer.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that you can do so much in Drupal is also its downfault. To a non-developer, it is extremely difficult to use. There is a steep learning curve, and it is not very accessible (i.e. user-friendly) to most people. Given this issue though, a developer can make it more user-friendly so that anyone can author in the system. In fact, a Drupal developer can enable such things as a Gutenberg module, which is the same editor in WordPress; thus making authoring accessible to non-developers. However, you will need a developer to enable Gutenberg in the beginning which makes Drupal more challenging to use for the average user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Drupal allows us to have a dynamic internal portal for communications and information in a large enterprise. Because of the amount of content managed, Drupal is the ideal platform because we can add recommendation engines, targeted content to specific users and dynamic content to the portal's functionality. Through having these functions, we can allow users to find content easier and also surface communications specific to each employee. We reduce the "spam" effect and make direct communications to employees more relevant.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have a very complex site or content, Drupal is the CMS for you. You will need a development team to get the best use of Drupal. However, if you have a simple site that needs to be maintained, try looking at other CMS such as WordPress, etc.

Druapl review
What do you like best about the product?
Drupal is very extensible, if you can think of it there is a way to make it happen with Drupal. The documentation is very thorough and understandable. Another one of its strengths is the community. There are several large events that happen every year and small groups that meet in almost all cities in America. The community is very open and willing to help everyone, no matter their level of experience.
A huge benefit to using Drupal is there is probably a module for 90% of what you would need for a project. The last 10% percent of the project is custom to the specific project and would have to created no matter what system you are using.

What do you dislike about the product?
The major versions of Drupal take a long time to be developed and released. The upgrade path from an older major version is not easy sometimes. Drupal depends on a lot of community-built modules to accomplish some basic tasks, and those modules can become stale and not maintained.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have built numerous websites of varying complexity for non-profits, and being able to copy parts of them to create a new one is extremely helpful. This allows me to be able to charge less and turn work around quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you can find developers / admins that know how to use Drupal.

Drupal is one of the easiest platforms to use when it comes to web development.
What do you dislike about the product?
Drupal lacks features and optimization that other platforms excel in. It doesn't offer enough to make you not want to use Wordpress or another platform
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted to test out drupal and if it could be a good fit for some of our clients or even our own websites. As it is better than a lot of programs it doesn't come close to platforms like Wordpress. If you are anti-wordpress then maybe drupal could work for you.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is worth a shot for sure. I always tell people to try platforms and see what works for them. Drupal didn't fit my companies needs or our client's needs. It does have its qwirks but it isn't the best by any means.
